The next stop on our election road trip has taken us to the Hunter region in NSW!
It’s an area that's constantly at the centre of massive national debates on energy, environment, and skills.
The seat of Hunter has been held by Labor for more than a century, but things are changing - and the ALP's desperately trying to hang onto it. Can they convince regional voters to stay with them?
Plus, in stark contrast to the mining industry in the region, the Hunter’s known for its world-class wine industry. We visit a farmer and grape grower in Polkobin to see how these industries co-exist.
And we check in with Joel Fitzgibbon, the Labor MP whose retirement is triggering a super tight contest in the area.
Live guests: Steve Fordham, Kamilaroi man and mining business owner Alisdair Tulloch, farmer and grape-grower Joel Fitzgibbon, former Member for Hunter
