    Bernard Keane Retweeted Michael McCormack

    Yeah... you might want to tell your mates in the Liberals, they now have a formal policy, overwhelmingly backed by party officials, to privatise it.https://twitter.com/M_McCormackMP/status/1008552866502471681 …

        Bernard this is sloppy journalism. Policy motions put to Federal (or state) council have no binding effect whatsoever on formal Party policy. Indeed, party VP Okotel said it best herself when noting that this is merely an “aspirational statement”. Try better next time. #auspol

        So if they had the “aspiration” of selling off aboriginal land to private interests or selling of Medicare we should just ignore it?

        So Labor moved a motion calling on the House to rule out privatising the ABC and the Coalition voted against it. First day back in a sitting week and it’s clusterf*ck time already for the government. #auspol

        The Liberals and the Nationals: an unholy alliance. Differing on another issue. Remember, Fracking on agricultural land is the major issue!

        You won’t need to support it or otherwise. Say what you like as the Liberals will roll over you as usual.
