Despite the hope of conservative Kiwis the Australian situation is only marginally better than that in NZ.
The aim is to get rid of an incestuous Labor Party run by ex Union bosses and ideologues nurtured from uni as Party apparatchiks. The curious spectacle is of a PM, true to her background, stalled in the resentments of her adolescent student marxist activist days.
