Award-winning journalist Chris Uhlmann will present a new documentary celebrating the legacy of former prime minister John Howard.

Time is the best measure of governments, and the one John Winston Howard led for 11 years, from March 1996, is ageing well.

Former prime minister John Howard joins Sky News host Chris Kenny to reflect on his political life. Mr Howard said he remembers the “elation of the night” he was elected prime minister of Australia.

I had a go at the things that I saw as important to Australia’s future,” John Howard tells The Saturday Telegraph, when asked how he wants Australians to look back on his 40 years in federal politics.
