Ajay some of what you say is how I think but you draw a long bow with the no talent jib.
Julia Gillard has a background in her portfolio that is unbeatable we do need to promote from our existing back bench.
And our return to office will fill the talent bag to the top.
Workchoices? well yes we did need change in IR the bellows that will come from my side now!
BUT not this insulting thing an object of Howard's hate for unions workchoices.
Your side of politics will suffer for generations because of Johny's miss use of a mandate that clearly never included workchoices.
Wait just a little while after the ALP national conference a workable IR system will be on the table.
John Howard Sir, once even I thought you had a handle on how Australians think, but do you understand the victims of workchoices are our kids? our grand kids?
And those who have no skills? do you know as I do a hand full who left school early to feed brothers and sisters?
Who are unskilled but work without even one day sick in ten years?
Now working on AWAs for less than 12 months and a week ago?
Poor people are not your enemy's mate! you are said to love the battlers? is that why you create so many more of them?
I if Howard's cabinet is full of talent I would much prefer integrity.
One last point from your post mark Wednesday in your diary in NSW the Liberal party returns to Liberalism, the first in every state.
Only good government can keep the government in power in NSW.
And I think it will do much better.

Belly, I respect your views.

I mantain the Mr Rudd has done to many deals to get into prower that will not help our cause, because he will become hamstrung, by appealing to big business in his policy in faer of appearing too left leaving the ALP being a Pro Nuclear right wing party.

Voters will be annoyed and I dont think a 2nd term is an option.

Unions should be equal in partnership with the ALP not dogs being thrown scraps.

The Australian Labor Party, in particular Mr Rudd should be proud of the union movement in our country.

Belly,

Look at what you say we should support.

Part one.

Mr. Rudd’s, official reason for not doing any hard interviews is because he must wait till the National Executive, which includes Mr. Rudd's workmate Ms Burke, to ratify Mr. Rudd’s Platform.

The real reason is somewhat murky.
Mr. Rudd cant talk pubic ally because he cant let the grass roots of the party know how right wing his 'Brand of Labor' actually is, he as the numbers at the Executive Conference, and is waiting now for it to ratify his agendas he hast to shut up till then.

Remember that Mr. Rudd has been doing deals across the country to put together a platform, even during the Beazley time, this is why Mr. Rudd was introduced by ex WA State Politician Mr. Edwards, who was fully aware of Brian Burke’s history, as Mr. Edwards was in State Government during WA Inc days, to Mr. Burke.

It is unreasonable to believe, Mr. Edwards did not brief Mr. Rudd on Brian Burke. Mr. Ruddy works with Brian Burke’s daughter, and Ms. Burke was also at that dinner in Perth.

Unfortunately for the Australian Labor Party Mr. Rudd has traded too much away to the business end of town in order to satisfy his personal ambition to be PM, leading to the development of a cold soulless right wing agenda party platform.

belly,

Part two.

The Australian Labor Party, seam’s to have been sold and accepted the line that, its ok mate we will treat you like 'Patsy's' but we will look after you later, trust me, so in effect the unions have been cornered into accepting Mr. Rudd's cold hearted, 'Brand of Labor'. No gaurentee but Mr. Rudd’s and Mr. Swan’s word, good greif.

Mr. Rudd persuaded the Unions that they are a burden to Mr. Rudd’s chance to be elected, that the unions are unpopular, persuading further the unions to accept and believe Mr. Rudd is doing us a favor, a Master Slave relationship.

The heartbreaking result seam’s to be that the deals Mr. Rudd has conducted with the likes of Brian Burke, and his crew, who hold a huge block of votes on the National Executive, and his grass roots aggressive lobbying style which seems to boil down to trust me, I hate those b@#$%^& too, is that we are left with a once Proud Great Australian Labor Party which value social progressive policy, destroyed.

ALP, Pro nuclear, Neve

Yeah we know how labor is
we know how liberals are

We know rudd has only say so on policies with will come out after the conferance to say yes or know.

Thats why The Australian Peoples party is here.

And i will P#ss on on your ground and stamp out yor dictatorship. It wont happen this election but have the next one, also the state elections.

It is so suprising how the media enjoys the labor and liberal party's with brainwashing tactics. Would be good to see other political party's discussed but we dont have the money like the big 2

Rudd he may get in but i will give him a hard time and make him accountable.

No to extending uranium mines
No to uranium powered power stations.

Yes to cutting pollies perks.
Yes to cutting pollies public superanuation contribution.

This party is still after members and candidates.

Tapp you go close to declaring war but I can assure you Labor once in office will see more than 2 terms.
And that your party if it stands will not ever get 10% of total votes, if they do I will be your slave for life!
If you live to stand in 100 elections federal and state you will never hold a seat bet on it.
perthguynic for once your post makes more since than some others.
But you need to understand you are out of touch with mainstream Australia.
A party shaped in your terms would face worse results than Mark Latham gave us.
The best and only chance those in true need have is from todays ALP not a dream party out of our past.
It is worth noting those dream teams mostly lost.
Rudd will return us to power and govern well ,surely a massive improvement on Howard.
