The ScoMo Government

Just because you have a policy, doesn't in itself make it great, all policies should be judged on their merit and the ones at the last election were.
That statement beggars belief.
The Coalition was a policy void and simply borrowed from Labor or attacked what they did not like.
The fact the Coalition was a policy void is borne out by its pathetic job to date.
Bereft of policy, heartless, with a poor moral compass, and praying for another miracle!

Oh, and what about that promised surplus!

The Coalition is a void most certainly but if the choice is hiring an employee who's going to actively do the wrong things versus one who's simply unproductive well I'd rather have neither. If forced though well then I'll pick the unproductive one as the least bad option.

That said, I do think the penny has finally dropped and that Albanese is going to bring much needed change to Labor and that'll see them not only elected but remain in power for an extended period.

He seems the first in a very long time to actually get it on practical everyday stuff.

"We the people" want a government that helps us retire in good health, not one that says we must work until we're stuffed.

We want a government that is right behind Australian business, not one that adheres to the ideals of Thatcherism and stands around watching the economy shift to little more than mining, services and a real estate bubble.

We want a government that protects our way of life and stands firm against anyone who threatens it. Not one that thinks turning Sydney and Melbourne into giant overcrowded cities where nobody other than elites can afford a house is something other than a nightmare come true.

Etc.

Albanese is saying the right words, it seems like he might actually "get it" and if so, well then if nothing goes wrong he'll probably end up leading Labor to an enduring victory. Assuming that to be the case, the next key will be actually delivering and being willing to upset those who need to be upset and not backing down.

The WA state government provides a good model - firmly pro-development and supporting business, leads clearly and strongly, it's pragmatic and willing to compromise ideology for what works, finds a way or makes one, it governs for all and stands firm against anyone who tries to hijack the government and impose a minority view. Exactly what the people want and which federal Labor's been lacking for a generation.

Funnily enough I thought I agreed with that in my post, thus the reference to Stevan Bradley, l can see your response is a conditioned one rather than a measured one.
 

Getting Mark Butler out of climate change and bringing in Bowen who talks a lot less about it was a good idea.

That doesn't mean I don't think climate change is important and I don't want anything done about it, but a strident approach clearly rattled the horses at the last election.

Speak soft but carry a big stick might be the way to go on AGW.

Lets not forget, you are easily impressed, especially with anything pro Labor.lol
So you and Rob should be able to wax off each other, right up to the election.lol
 
Climate change is an extremely important one and ultimately a very serious threat.

It is however not the only issue of importance and nor is it something that needs another announcement on a daily basis.

What it needs is action in a manner that works along with many other things.

For one example, the aim is to stop emissions from cars cooking the planet. This involves having non-polluting cars, it doesn't involve telling people to ride a bicycle.

Im not in the politics of envy
 
From the guy that loves China. Oh the irony.
I have no reason to dislike any country!
But see if you can find anything like this from Morrison.
It's a shame Morrison won't be going to Japan's Olympic Games to compete in the backflip as he was a shoo-in.

“Sneering, wine-quaffing elites v good honest working folk who know the meaning of hard yakka and doubtless enjoy a coldie at the end of the day, not a glass of unoaked chardy.
Morrison made these remarks to the Business Council of Australia’s annual dinner and we couldn’t think of a better venue to urge the blue-collar workers of Australia to see off the pretensions of inner-city elitists. It was held in the grand ballroom of the Fullerton Hotel in Martin Place — Sydney’s largest pillarless ballroom, apparently — where you can ‘discover luxury and heritage in the heart of the city’; ‘a home away from home for corporate travellers’ from which you can ‘feel the pulse of the city and enjoy the proximity to iconic landmarks’.”
