Kitchen Cabinet: July 23

Which pollie gets a 10 out of 10 from Annabel Crabb for an "incredible spread" this week?

13ancLabor’s Jenny Macklin gets a 10 out of 10 from Annabel Crabb this week on Kitchen Cabinet for an “incredible spread.”

Media shy Labor powerhouse, Jenny Macklin, opens up her Melbourne home to Annabel for a feast of curries. Annabel heads straight to the pantry and finds an exceedingly organised spice drawer, providing clues to why Jenny is the guru behind key Labor policies such as the National Disability Insurance Scheme, the Apology and paid parental leave. In 2001, whilst Labor was in opposition, Jenny became the first female Deputy Leader. She served as deputy for three leaders until Julia Gillard ousted her from the role. Over a delicious lunch, Jenny reveals how she mended her relationship with Julia Gillard, and how she remained committed to major policy reforms despite the difficulties of working in a hung parliament.

Tuesday, 23 July at 8pm on ABC1.
