   The Global Right Wing Playbook: How the IDU Impacts Aussie Politics

   Ever wondered how global politics influences what happens here at home? This podcast dives deep into the world of the International Democrat Union (IDU), a powerful alliance of centre-right and right-wing political parties that includes Australia’s own Liberal Party. We'll explore what the IDU is, who's involved, and how it impacts Australian politics and elections. We’ll unpack the IDU's connections to Australia, including the fact that former Australian Prime Minister John Howard was the organisation's longest-serving chairman, holding the position from 2002 to 2014. We’ll investigate the benefits of IDU membership for Australian conservative parties, including access to global campaign strategies, policy ideas, and networking opportunities. The IDU facilitates the sharing of election-winning techniques, such as campaign organisation, fundraising, opinion polling, and the use of technology in campaigns. The Asia Pacific Democrat Union (APDU), which is headquartered in Australia, strengthens regional cooperation among conservative parties. We'll explore how the IDU influences Australian political campaigns, including the exchange of tactics such as voter outreach and digital strategies. We’ll also look at how the IDU's influence might align Australian politics with broader international right-wing agendas. We'll also examine the controversies surrounding the IDU, including criticisms that it promotes a global conservative agenda, and the concerns raised about its connections to far-right political figures, such as Viktor Orbán. We’ll also explore the role of current Australian political figures in the IDU, including Scott Morrison, a member of the IDU Honorary Advisory Board, and Peter Dutton, who has attended IDU gatherings. Join us as we cut through the spin and explore how this international organisation impacts the Australian political landscape and what it means for you. We'll discuss John Howard's perspective on what makes a successful campaign, including the importance of clear messaging and party unity. #auspol #auspol24 More info at https://www.auspol.info/2025/02/the-international-democrat-union-what.html
