Power corrupts and absolute Power corrupts absolutely.Just remember Comrades that anyone is capable of becoming Prime Minister.
And that most Politicians on achieving power become bastards.

It's an imperfect correlation but when the economy's doing nicely the concerns of the population shift toward more "Left" issues. When the economy's not doing well the concern comes firmly back to the economy and often sees a shift to the "Right".
Yes he is about as electable as Bill.Dutton as liberal leader.... good luck with that.
For the left, he is evil incarnate. While he is leading it will keep the left mobilised against liberal.Yes he is about as electable as Bill.
The left which is become heavily influenced by the wealthy, will stay leaning that way until they start losing money, then there will be a swing back to the right.For the left, he is evil incarnate. While he is leading it will keep the left mobilised against liberal.
@SirRumpole the inner city elites have done it again, all the best with the electricity prices.
It is becoming quite interesting how the working class is moving right and the wealthy are moving to the left.
Dutton as liberal leader.... good luck with that.
This map sums it up beautifully IMO, Labor heartland. ?Labor could still get over the line with a majority, but the message has been sent, no one can rely on 'heartland ' votes any more.
From the map it looks like young Sydney/Melbourne/Brisbane/Perth/ Adelaide/Hobart Vs the rest of Australia.Liberal Simon Birmingham said that the Liberals were out of touch and didn’t take in people's concerns.
He also said if you don't let the young own houses then you can't expect them to vote conservative.
Look at the voting, it's mainly young vs old.
That's where the young people live.From the map it looks like young Sydney/Melbourne/Brisbane Vs the rest of Australia.
Just updated with the new map.That's where the young people live.
What about Perth and Adelaide?
Melbourne has CSL, Australia's largest company and a huge biotech sector that brings in millions to Australia.Just updated with the new map.
That's where the young barista's live, the work that pays the bills is in the regions.
The problem is, if you focus your whole political system, to appease the city people you will end up just like America. Where the rich live in the Cities and the working class end up having to move further and further out and those who live in tbe regions, doing the mining and farming, miss out all together.Melbourne has CSL, Australia's largest company and a huge biotech sector that brings in millions to Australia.
Queensland has manufacturing plants in steel, aluminium.
You can sneer at the young and call them baristas if you like. Sounds like Newscorp. In my view the Liberals listening to Murdoch media was their big mistake. We aren't American.
Melbourne might have that but as a whole, Victoria is by far the worst performing state on a per capita basis when it comes to bringing money into the country. In next worst place is NSW.Melbourne has CSL, Australia's largest company and a huge biotech sector that brings in millions to Australia.
Queensland has manufacturing plants in steel, aluminium.
By the way I wasn't sneering at baristas or service industry/hospitality workers, how much of the Melbourne/Sydney youth work in that sector as opposed to working for CSL/biotech/steel and aluminium? I was stating a fact.Melbourne has CSL, Australia's largest company and a huge biotech sector that brings in millions to Australia.
Queensland has manufacturing plants in steel, aluminium.
