This sounds like the policy-free conservative party in Australia. Prefer to wage endless culture wars (platformed by compliant MSM) as a substitute.

Sad but true David. The Age also giving Paterson a “Coalition says” free kick. Press gallery has spent the post-election period applying the defibrillator, compression and kiss of life. Now there’s a pulse, it’s back to business as usual.

Cheapest cigarettes in Australia $40 & change for a pack of 20s. Government raised prices to diminish appeal of smoking.

774 is Melbourne based and the content reflects it. Pity he didn’t have a broader profile. I rate Sally Sara on RN but her breakfast program producers have overdone Coalition content post-election IMO.

Give Raf Epstein a listen on ABC 774 from 8.30am weekdays.

The press gallery is yet to get its head around which political party is in government. Its post-election focus has been overwhelmingly on the biggest loser. Coming up to a month now. Planted the flag for the next three years: bubble reality.
