COVID has made young people get into politic more than ever before. But it means some politicians are turning into cult figures, as people focus on their personalities over policies.



Also, the allegations of rape made by a young political staffer have resonated with the Hack audience, with dozens of calls and texts coming in about how sexual harassment and assault happened to listeners who work in other industries.



And, Prime Minister Scott Morrison has been criticised for his choice of words when acknowledging the young staffer's experience.
