Peacock Politics

All ministers are politicians but not necessarily experts in their assigned area - a health minister usually isn't a doctor and an education minister doesn't need to have been a teacher. So how do ministers have the authority to make decisions that are in the best public interest? Adam Peacock is joined by Labor MP Jason Clare to discuss how ministers are elected, what it takes to be good at the job, and all the ego and ambition that gets mixed in with it.     See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
