In a bold move planned for the third quarter of 2026—which, if you’re counting, is way past when anyone cares about 2023 news—Politico, the famous US political scoop factory, is launching 'Canberra Playbook.' This shiny new product will grace Aussie ears and eyeballs right after parliament thaws from its winter nap. Politico vows to deliver cutting-edge insider analysis meant to untangle Australia’s vibrant democracy noise, just in time for everyone to forget the actual events. They aim to connect global power centers with readers in North America and Europe, helping them figure out why Down Under decisions mysteriously affect the northern hemisphere. Because political power moves are obviously easier to track with a 3-year delay.
