- Unfortunately I don't think so. Eg. last friday there was a
- headline in the fin review - front page saying that the govt
- was secretly asking financial advisers how to sell off
- Telecom. It is certainly becoming clearer to me that the
- difference is marginal, becoming more so, and the best way I
- could describe the difference is about 2-3 years. That is
- the policies I voted against liberal for one election seem
- to be adopted by the labor party the next.
-
- But certainly, there is no way I would vote liberal in the
- reps this time round.
