Who really holds the power in Australia? Who are the movers and shakers who can get things done — or stop things happening?

Who Runs This Place? explores who has real clout in Australia, how power works and how it is changing.

Presented by RN’s Richard Aedy, this series examines Canberra’s parliamentary triangle and the rising power of our security agencies; the clout of the lobbies and those with direct access to Ministers; the industries, sports and media identities who built power bases in particular States and how organisations like Get Up, the rise of conservative independents and the ubiquity of social media is contributing to people power.
