Hawke & Keating strategically rebuilt the economy & the nation for the future. Labor today sells it off, approving a climate bomb for Woodside, a company with than 1,000 jobs in WA Culture trashed, climate burned, all for shareholder value.

I don't often write to politicians, but I wrote to Ged Kearney, my local member today. I was brief, because I didn't think I could keep it polite beyond a couple of sentences.

Oh for just one of them with half the ability of any one of the Hawke-Keating frontbench or Bill Kelty

Hawke and Keating supercharged the descent into neoliberalism.

ericbanana.bsky.social•3 days ago

It started before them.

Trans-Australia Airlines (TAA) Merger into Australian Airlines (1981) under the Fraser Government was a partial move toward corporatisation and market reform of Government owned enterprises.

The ground work was done.

Yeah I don't think they were great either. But I don't have the full picture as wasn't around when they were in power. But Keating began the privatisation of everything when he sold Qantas for example I think. And we can see what's happened to Qantas.

Committed Environment Ministers of the past have allowed expansion of heavily polluting industries. Recently it was Tanya Plibersek but in the past even Peter Garrett went against his principles.

Wait till he approves PEP11 and you won't be able to get near the East Coast for whingeing nimbys

Consider me a whingeing nimby
That's why Falinski is no longer the Member for MacKellar

smiffy51.bsky.social•3 days ago

Ok, but when gas and electricity prices keep rising remember PEP11

Took the ALP 5 minutes to show themselves to be nothing more than Lib Lite

Sickening isn’t it.

I am not a fan of this decision. I would like to see a full breakdown of how this decision was made. It seems like another attempt at soft selling this through pre announcement media manipulation.

Albanese doesn’t do transparency.

It's why media RC is so important I feel, because as long as they do what big lobbyists want , who are absolutely mostly tied in with big media they get a free ride. If gov hides decision processes its up to media to delve into those processes. Good decision for fossil fuels , poor one for ALP.
