@msolga,
Just a couple of comments before I leave this thread:
First, I'm really surprised that the was no new climate change policy announcement prior to the announcement of the election date. I understood that that was the plan, to fix all the problematic policy areas prior to the election campaign. Now Labor will have to announce any policy changes
during the campaign. As well as that, Labor will have to sort out the (many) remaining glitches in their new asylum seekers policy during the campaign, too. Like finalizing the actual location of the processing centre.
Secondly, after listening to Barrie Cassidy: Amazing. Not all that long ago we believed that this election would be fought between Kevin Rudd & Malcolm Turnbull, as leaders of their respective parties! Incredible how much has changed in such a short time in
both parties. Are the days of long-term party leaders now history?
