By Alexander Deane and Felicity McMahon, published 17/8/2007

As much as he may want it Kevin Rudd can't have his Liberal Party Policy Cake and be a Labor Party Comrade too.

Apart from memories of the last Labor Federal government, the main thing that puts me off voting for them again,is the state ALP government in my state. A more dysfunctional undemocratic muddling lot of bunglers it would be hard to find.
Unless it was the lot who sit on the Opposition benches in Canberra.
Thanks but no thanks.
Kevin Rudd is no Labor believer, he is far too dainty to be a 'working man'and his mob...TV stars,Pop singers and unionists. Not a working man among them. What a strange party.

James Purser.If kevin is going to let individuals access their own super to buy a house then that is OK.However to use superfunds in general as a means of financing cheap housing will mean socialised poverty for all.There is almost no profit in housing developments in NSW at the moment,so how are super fund owners going to get a return if they are socialised by a Rudd Labor Govt?The share market on average exceedingly out performs property and building;especially in domestic housing.

The best way to reduce the cost of housing is to stop the States from profiteering by restricting supply.Reduce stamp duty,and no infrastructure taxes that get passed onto first home buyers.Just eliminate the States Govts and we will have plenty of money for infrastructure and housing.We do not need 3 levels of Govt.

Mickijo. Couldn't agree more. What surprises me is how many bloggers here reckon the ALP is "for the workers" the underdog etc while everything they ARE says thay are for themselves.

With the coalition the general "mantra" is; work hard, use your talents and become the best you can; at making money in business or by spending/investing your money wisely as workers; in the sciences or arts, or sports or wherever. Enjoy family life if you want. You may not become the boss of BHP, but you can rise above where you are now. If you aren't happy as a blue-collar worker, have you thought of maybe starting a business? etc etc

The ALP permanently sends out the negative message; you are on the bottom and are doomed to stay there. Blue collar workers are the salt of the earth and should be in a Union so they can stay blue collar workers forever. The bosses are keeping you there. You are not responsible for being a dolt, so don't try to get out of the hole you are in. Any problem you have is yours to "enjoy"
; we'll help you in your victimhood.

Meanwhile the leadership of the ALP and the Unions are Filthy Rich!! Their best mates are Filthy Rich (John Singleton anybody?). Their wives are Filthy Rich. That Building Union thug in WA; isn't his wife a multi-millionaire developer, as well as other better-known cases? You see THEY can all make it but not their voter-base.

Funny old world, eh?

Yeah mister mini me is no john howard, hides behind everyone, including his wife, its not my fault its hers.
Her fault for underpaid workers
Her fault for having to sack 350 to 400 people.
Her fault that the labor heavies that are within workdirections are incompetent
Her fault labor has no policies.

So really what does the krudd take responsibility for.

Maybe the sexual abusers and pedophiles.
