Show Notes
Hobsons Bay Council in Australia faces backlash for proposed media and secrecy rules, dubbed Big Brother style control. The rules, which include limiting councillors media access and hiding agendas, briefings, and officer papers, have sparked outrage. Residents are rallying against the changes, claiming they will gag debate and silence councillors. The state governments oversight, led by the same monitor in nearby Kingston City Council, is also under scrutiny. The rules will be voted on Tuesday, with tensions running high.
