Pidgin Politics

As world leaders descend on Paris for the United Nations Climate Change talks, Tim Clare and Wes Mountain are joined by Tim Dunlop to devote this week's episode of Pidgin Politics to the politics of climate change. We start off by discussing the government's approach to the issue, and the talks, and how Malcolm Turnbull is handling tensions with the conservatives in the party. Secondly, we examine how the Labor Party is seeking to score political points from the government's division and how much spine is in the "heroic" targets that Bill Shorten has announced.  We are joined from Paris by Celine Ramstein, who is directly involved in the talks for the IDDRI at Sciences Po University. She gives us the view from the conference, and what we can expect from the next two weeks  Finally we round out the show with Bits & Pieces. Check out pidgin.net.au for further links to everything that we spoke about, and don't forget to leave us a review in iTunes.
