Panellists: Nicola Roxon, Minister for Health; Baroness Valerie Amos, United Kingdom High Commissioner to Australia; Greg Hunt, Opposition environment spokesman; John 'Rampaging Roy Slaven' Doyle, broadcaster and playwright; and Tim Wilson, from the free-market think tank the Institute for Public Affairs.

A veteran of many Q&A panels since the program's earliest days, Tony Abbott this time faced the audience alone as Leader of the Opposition. A sharp and well-informed audience put him through the hoops on issues across the policy spectrum, and Tony kept his answers brief enough to allow room for well over 20 questions from those in the studio and from others around Australia via video and the web.
