    Cleary Independent - Season 1 / Episode 8 - God Save Whose King?
    Sep 16 2022

    In 1920 my grandfather, John Joseph Cleary, renounced all allegiance to King George V – the late Queen’s grandfather. At some point the fawning media will have to accept that the majority of Australians want to do what Jack Cleary did in 1920.

    In the latest CLEARY INDEPENDENT podcast a collection of thinking Australians - Barrie Cassidy, Marieke Hardy, Carmel Shute, Ken White and Dr Chris McConville – share their views with me about the republic and the media’s coverage of the death of the Queen.

    It’s a great yarn.
