It's week four of Australia's Federal election campaign and we've made it past the half way mark. Give yourself a big pat on the back for your perseverance, and enjoy this week's outstanding panel casting a razor-sharp gender lens over the week that was.

Joining Virginia Haussegger AM this week to discuss the election meme war, the big issues for women and whether they are being addressed, and what happens if the Teal Independents fail, are:
