The Freedom Of Speech That Those Youngsters Fought Wars For

There's been another Cuffuffle over Mark Latham, he finally pops back up with his diaries published, now I spose there's a lot of diarists and bloggers, and letter writers to the editors, who all have a say, to dip the pen in the ink in your own diaries is the freedom of speech that those youngsters thought they fought wars with strange enemies for, those freedoms of speech and opinion and thought that are so important and which the current governments are ripping up and joining the dark forces...

What I Enjoy About Latham Is His Unabashed Speech

But what I enjoy about Latham is his unabashed speech, he drops the niceties and the decorum and the properness and speaks his mind in his own language and says what he thinks, and I always reckon people who're swearing when they speak are far more likely to be truthful than those guarded lips that spin out snaky political speak, so I think it's refreshing to hear Latham speak, it was similar to when Keating used to do those off the cuff explanations of how rotten the Tories were...

Most Of What He Said In Disparaging Personalities Was Second Hand

But Latham's speaking terms are so much more colourful than the blandishments me-too-ism garbage we are used to hearing, thing is with his bluff and bluster most of what he said in disparaging personalities was second hand, like he's just the same with scuttlebutt rumour, y'know, I heard this about so and so, but don't tell anyone I told you... For Christ's sake it's just a pile of baloney anyway, and it reveals that side of politics which leaves us in despair, cause we all know now that there too many persuasions in the parties, they have to do this and that to just stay in!!! Maybe that Secret Anonymous Compulsory Voting thing is needed...

What Is It That Latham And The Party Differed On???

And the Media goes around on a Ferris Wheel about Latham's name calling, which is Bugga all in consequence, but what about getting a list of the policies that Latham and the machine men disagreed on??? Just what have the machine men ticked as against what Latham wanted to cross out, and then what would he give the tick to??? That's what I wanna know, what was the fight really about??? After all they use the dirt file tactics to get rid of people who wont toe their line so what is it that Latham and the Party differed on??? What???

Clean Out The Powers That Put Me-Too Stamps On The Rotten Policies Of The Rotten Government

And what the hell are Politicians doing keeping secrets anyway, it's all too shoddy, get it all out in the open, I reckon Latham has done a rake over and it still reveals that machine room instead of the party room, maybe the parties should be over, it's so refreshing to hear Andren and those other more independent people, even Barnaby Joyce, for all the good he did for anyone but those who scratch his back, so Labor ought to take heed of Latham and clean out the powers that put Me-Too-Stamps on the rotten policies of the rotten Government...

Labor Should Be Championing The Welfare State, And Government Run Public Services

I like Latham, I like his speaking out, I can't say he's middle of the road enough for me though, I'd prefer him in the So-Called Liberals... I like the idea of a new Labor related to the workers and unions again, the wage earners and their wives and children, Labor should be championing the Welfare State and Government run Public Services like Health and Education and Energy and Communications, cause sure as hell (environmentally speaking), there will come a time when the swing back to middle of the road politics will come, you can still have Private Products manufactured in Australia for sale anywhere to anyone who wants it, once you put up Tariff Barriers and stop imports, and you can turn Australia into a self sufficient Nation, who doesn't depend on anyone else for anything...

It's Crazy To Let The Pollies Be Bought Off By Coal Energy Thuggery

Australia should take up the renewable energy challenge and leave the coal in the ground, it's just plain stupid to be tying ourselves to a dirty old pollution that is dooming our future, it's crazy to let the pollies be bought off by Coal Energy thuggery...
