Former Greens senator and lifelong campaigner Lee Rhiannon has been fighting on the Left since she was fifteen years old.
Almost a year on from stepping down as a Senator for NSW after losing preselection to Mehreen Faruqi, Lee talks to me about being spied on by ASIO from the age of seven, being raised by socialist parents, the state of the union movement, just how badly neoliberalism has knocked around the Left, the tensions that continue to frustrate the Australian Greens and how the party can find a better way to reach out to working people.
Woahhh how cool you can support this show by becoming a Patron please radical, man!
I’m doing a preview of ENOUGH at The Bill Murray in London on Tuesday July 23rd
Then ENOUGH is coming to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August and the Soho Theatre in September
