She is the Greens racebaiter in chief, mate.

And, I'm struggling a bit to figure out what Barnaby Joyce has to do with the Greens. Has he defected or something?
 
As long as it is not the little piece of shxt..
Natale seemed respectable, obviously not as rabid or north korean minded than many and probably why he is pushed away
To take care of his family, did they mentioned gardening?:roflmao:

With the newscorp and ABC co2 brainwashing, the Greens should do well next election
And labour is so behind .Greens are the new left
 
Adam Bandt on his opening address on ABC was brilliant, speaks clearly with considerable confidence. And the content, about education equality, jobs and the unemployed, particularly benefits was excellent. And an improvement here would also directly help business as such monies are spent on the ground. One of the best addresses I've seen in years. DiNatialie was never that confident or fluent.
 
The Australian political system lacks serious activism as the left in Labor really doesn't exist anymore as Labor embraces neoliberalism.

I hope the Greens elect a seriously aggressive activist to lead them and lead aggressive attacks against the current government who chooses to raise the bar in corrupt practices saying they are acceptable with no consequences.

I agree with that, it is about time we had a Party that challenged the establishment, ATM all we have, is two whiter shades of pale.

Labor haven't been "left" since 1975.

They are only "left" to people who are far right.

That is the exact reason they aren't doing well at the polls, you have a choice between beige Coalition or beige Labour, so people chose on the actual policy, rather than on the thrust of the agenda. Gough was the last true 'left' Prime Minister we had, and despite what history says, he did a lot of good for the working man and the social system.:2twocents
 
So, will Adam Bandt make a difference to the Greens ?

Di Natalie didn't seem to win hearts and minds of Green voters, I wonder if Bandt has the charisma to do what Di Natalie didn't.

We shall see ...
