The spectre of a hung parliament will cause the major political parties to re-evaluate their corporate reason for being in the very near future.  Currently both are hostage to sectional interests who know how to extract maximum political advantage for their minority constituents whether they be academic elites, the inner-city politburo or agrarian socialists.

Labor has all but abandoned its working class constituency in pursuit of the urban middle class vote.  Commentators and chatterers from the non-productive sector – academics, public servants, journalists, yuppies and doctors’ wives have emerged as the new force in the Labor Party.

‘The Government has repeatedly acknowledged that as part of its routine and prudent contingency planning, the Department of Immigration and Citizenship has for some time been exploring additional temporary accommodfation options to house families and vulnerable asylum-seekers’, according to a report in the Australian on 28 July.
