Dismantling the Liberal bomb…
The two most important things we’ve learned about Malcolm Turnbull of late are these: that he should probably have joined the Labor Party, and that he’d probably make a very good prime minister. The former is a hypothetical; the latter fast becoming one. For many reasons, the former barrister and investment banker is the proverbial square peg in the round hole.
Gutless politics of protecting coal
There is a great, immovable dichotomy of the climate change debate: governments in this country support emissions reduction AND the coal industry. The two are clearly opposed. Governments continue to prop up dirty, redundant industries for fear of having job losses and economic ruin on their watch. It is bad economics, and a politically gutless act.
