Farewell to Gillard, enter the old : Comments

By Binoy Kampmark, published 27/6/2013

One leader could campaign but not govern; the other govern but not campaign. The bifurcation of the ALP's leadership has been its source of torment and doom.

What people who have never worked for a pollie don't understand is that most bills put through parliament are merely budget supply bills, since the dismissal they are never actually denied by either party any more.

So Gillard's reforms come down to 3 major policies on the never, never.

1.. Gonski laws to allow it have passed but there will be no new money for 3-7 years so what was the point? And why were poor uni students made the donkeys who have to pay for the rich private schools to keep their money?
2. the river murray scheme was Turnbull's, it is on the never, never until 2021 an SA has only signed up today.
3. the NDIS is having a small trial but no money until 2016, again what was the point.
4. This report shows how low this parliament has gone but Gillard had a bucket of concrete in her ears and refused to listen to anyone. http://www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Committees/Senate_Committees?url=humanrights_ctte/reports/2013/9_2013/index.htm
5. Many people have now said clearly that Rudd was not dumped because he couldn't govern, Wikileaks cables clearly showed that he was dumped by the Zionist lobby and spies for the US after he said we should vote for Palestine to be recognised by UNESCO and that all the undermining of the government in his day was not done by Rudd but by Gillard, Arbib, Shorten and Feeney.

I think Marilyn should get a different writing job. You know, producing those 600 page conspiracy thingies with Codex or Conundrum or Recourse in the title that are bought in desperation before one flies a long way, such as to Moscow.

Is it a conspiracy it if it actually demonstrated in Wikileaks cables? Just asking, because I haven't seen the cables, but I would have thought that if we had hard evidence that the moon landing was faked we wouldn't call it a conspiracy any more.
