Our second edition will soon be available from newsstands throughout Australia. Incuded in the magazine will be a diary from the former cultural attache Sir Les Patterson in which he offers advice to Kevin Rudd and settles a score with Malcolm Turnbull. Historian John Adamson charts the rise of the plutocrat in contemporary politics - reminding us that we've seen this all before. Tom Switzer draws parallels between Peter Costello and Richard Nixon. We have the timeless Kathy Lette on turning 50 and resisting the knife. Artist Jeffrey Smart sketches his working life in Tuscany...
We hope you enjoy it!

'Welcome to The Billabong - a corner of the Spectator website devoted to all things Australian. Much like the content in the new Spectator Australia magazine (which you can read here), we’ll often centre on politics, but will make room for everything from sport to the arts as well. Our team of bloggers - including myself - will be delivering updates throughout each day, ensuring that there's always something for you to get your teeth stuck into. And, remember, you can leave your comments on any post we make. So have your say, and let's get the debate started.'
