Liberty Itch PodcastEpisode 5: Gun Control - with David LeyonhjelmSenator David Leyonhjelm is the guest for episode 5 of the Liberty Itch podcast. David has been at the forefront of Australia's gun control debate. He has written 2 books on the topic with a third on the way. He is well known for his libertarian stance and he's consistently challenged Australia's strict firearm laws, arguing they infringe on citizens' rights to self-defense and recreation, which they do. Australia has among the toughest gun control laws in the World, along with North Korea, Eritrea and Venezuela. It is not a policy to be proud of. As David explains, aggressive...2025-02-221h 03

Collectivitis Podcast#56 - David Leyonhjelm - Freedom and FirearmsPietro is joined by David Leyonhjelm, former Australian Senator for the Libertarian Party (known then as the Liberal Democrats). During his time in Parliament, David was a staunch advocate for gun ownership rights, and the two discuss many of the aspects that make up the conversation on firearms. Some of the issues discussed include: the restrictions on guns, the myths and misconceptions around guns, various comparisons and statistics with other countries (such as Switzerland, the Czech Republic and the US), the libertarian position on guns, and how Australians value feelings about safety over reasoned argument. 2024-04-071h 06

The Hated and the DeadEP42: Tony AbbottTony Abbott was Prime Minister of Australia from 2013 until 2015. A brilliant and ruthless Leader of the Opposition, Abbott's blunt and confrontational style fell flat as prime minister. After just two years in charge, Abbott was deposed by Malcolm Turnbull, leaving office as the most unpopular Australian PM of modern times. Abbott’s brief premiership represents part of what today’s guest calls the “Italy with Crocodiles” period- Australia had six prime ministers in eight years, but all the while remained one of the best governed countries in the world. At a time when the UK is selecting its thir...2022-07-311h 12

10 News First PersonWomen of the House: Sarah Hanson-YoungSarah Hanson-Young's biggest and most public battle with sexism came via a defamation lawsuit against former Liberal-Democrat senator David Leyonhjelm. A targeted media blitz in 2018 put her at the centre of a slut-shaming campaign. But the war started long before and has been raging since she entered politics aged just 25. Behind the closed doors of parliament, Senator Hanson-Young reveals a constant barrage of misogyny and sexualised bullying which has largely remained undisturbed - until now.

Despite the "reservoir of goodwill" he enjoyed on taking over, Turnbull did not follow through.
