I diverge from common thoughts here. I don’t want my productivity going to prop up business lobby groups. Colesworth is the result of an economic system that cannot resolve the need for more efficiencies via economies of scale monopolies and the need for much competition to get an accurate price signal. No Australian party wants to tamper with the current economic system, so it was obvious this ACCC report was leading to nothing.
The News Bargaining Incentive was a shake down itself. It should be scraped. Most Australian media companies are the same trash as social media and should shutdown if they cannot survive. At least tech provides useful services other than propaganda channels for connected politicians.
Labor had control of Federal, WA,QLD,NSW,VIC,ACT governments and achieved basically nothing from your list. They had the opportunity do it and those chose to do nothing. Yes they are better then LNP but if they where to form a coalition LLNP the population would notice the difference.
Labor supporters complain about the media for why the party cannot implement their vision but while in power instead of taking them on the media’s corporate propaganda broadcasted largely over public electromagnetic frequencies at heavily discounted rates; Labor decided to give it to Google instead.
That Albo can’t even convincingly beat Dutton in proof he is the worst Prime Minister in the past 25 years. The whole centrist approach just means Federal Labor stands for nothing, completely spineless so no surprise they are hemorrhaging support.
I think associating mass government firings to ideology is being too charitable. LNP are in government 2/3 of the time. They have created the small government they wanted. This latest idea is just to be cruel, nothing more. They are not good people.
