Corrosively brilliant article.
Like hot concentrated acid poured onto (don't try anything like this a home kids) magnesium powder.
Haven't finished reading yet.

#auspol #Labor is unable "to think clearly about the problem of being a fossil fuel-addicted US protectorate in a world of US imperial decline and a global heating crisis."
#BernardKeane at #Crikey speaking clearly about the woeful leadership #Australia is stuck with.

It’s likely to lead to a series of vexing questions: does Australia back the appeasement of Russia? Will it back US colonisation projects if they occur? Will it back the US turning its back on European allies? Whither the Five Eyes when Canada and the UK are targets for US aggression? And what happens if Australia becomes, like Canada, the next ally to feel Trump’s wrath, to have the vice president backing One Nation, demanding the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme be dumped and US fossil fuel companies given special tax treatment?

"This isn’t a government; it’s a corporate concierge service."
That is #BernardKeane 's conclusion after enumerating the failures of the Minns govt in #NSW and crucifying the transport Minister Jo Haylen for her flippant disregard of public funds expenditure on her 'boozy trip' to Newcastle.
Apparently #Haylen is a a full member of the royal family of politician lifers. She never had another job that was not related to politics inside the #Labor party. Hence, completely out of touch.
And one wonders how it is that Labor (State and Federal) have lost touch with its foundational values. We are left to wonder why 'our Labor' is no longer concerned with our plight and why it is that there is so much cozying up to the big end of town.
Signaling our common disappointment Keane writes: "NSW Labor, in its three terms in opposition after the spectacular scandals, blatant corruption and in-fighting of its post-Carr years in government, learnt nothing about the importance of integrity in public office and its role in good government. It learnt only how to be electable again. It’s still a party that treats public resources as a private treasure chest, that gleefully politicises the public service, that sees only a seamless union of the private interests of MPs, the interests of NSW Labor and its union backers and the extended Labor family, and the public sector."
Bugger... where does that leave me at the next State election? What kind of choice am I really going to be given when all I want is #tranparency, #accountability and real #representation?
