Peter Van Onselen has never shied away from expressing his opinion. As one of Australia’s most high-profile political commentators, his preparedness to apply a well-trained mind to political, economic and social issues always provokes interest—and the response is not always favourable. In his first anthology of columns from The Australian, readers will traverse the state of play in Australian politics since the 2019 bushfires and the start of the Coronavirus pandemic right up to the 2022 Australian Federal Election. Peter’s headlines often evoke rabid social media commentary about the article and the prolific analyst of national
affairs himself. In PVO join Peter as he goes beyond the headlines and examines the stories that have defined us, their relevance today, the fallout of his pieces at the time, and the times he’s had his opinion changed.
