Enough of the ALP, We can continue to watch them and see what comes out of the ashes.
https://www.afr.com/politics/federal/mo ... 017-p531igThe Liberal Party that Menzies created promised to represent the ‘forgotten people’ - the vast middle classes of the nation whose interests were neglected by the organised political forces of capital and labour. Menzies’ party rejected operating as an instrument of big business; but its major and historic achievement during Menzies’ long residence in the Lodge between 1949 and 1966 was to successfully defend the liberal principles of individualism and free enterprise by resisting global trends towards greater state control and expansion of the role and size of government.
Now they no longer closely resemble the party Menzies started. It is clear that the party has become more focused on getting and keeping the office of government. The Entire political scene in Australia seem to consist of those who will say and do anything to get another vote and those who are stunningly foolish to believe everybody should operate in their ideally created world.
There now seems more interest in lining their own pockets. This self-interest has formed the government in the last few decades…
Anyway, I am not sure this form of Coalition can maintain government as they also appear to be lured by the riches of the big business and rich society. I wonder just how much it will take for them to be relegated back to opposition.
