In this episode of the Fifth Estate Podcast, Cameron discusses the following.

* Victoria Police not being able to find enough recruits. (Is it really because of the "tightened" job market, or is it because VicPol are a law unto themselves?)
* Is Victoria Police testing the water with their Firearm Prohibition Order for someone who isn't in organised crime?
* Speed cameras are nothing more than revenue raisers.
* Supreme Leader Andrews spells Olivia Newton-John's name wrong on twitter and doesn't correct the post. (Is this acceptable for someone who has a multi-million dollar PR team?)
* Victoria's public service wages bill blows out to $35bn.
* Should people in the public service be excluded from voting due to a conflict of interest?
* Is 78 too old to stand as a candidate for election, like Derryn Hinch will be in November?
* Is it time to abolish local government as a paid role, and make it a voluntary position?
* How long till Australia's blue and red ensign, and Eureka Stockade Southern Cross flag are listed as "extremist" flags, if they aren't already.
