Liberals go on about Labor yet only have 5% more in Primary.
Wait until next year when Liberals split over climate change.
and like Attila The Howard said ... "division is death"
I don't think it will matter, as I think most peoples focus has shifted away from 'Al Gores' climate change, and onto multiple rate hikes all within months of Labor being in, and more are on the way after Xmas.
The focus will be on soaring living expenses, jobs, rate hikes, labors failure to follow through with ANY of it's pre-electoral promises, the let-down over the Murray-Darling (Greens have been rather quiet on this front, and the BHP Olympic dam proposal secreted in Labor) the messy handling of the Wikileaks and refugee affairs, lack of affordable housing, little or no infrastructure to justify the squandering of a once healthy surplus left behind by a more responsible Liberal government back in 2007....I mean the list is endless...but I can assure you, "Global Warming" is not the flavour of the month, nor will it be as things get tougher in the lead up to what will be a sure-fire Liberal victory....however modest the coalition are being about this.
One sentence will destroy Greens vote-base....of which is..
A vote for Greens is a vote for a Labor government 'AGAIN'.
I think people/voters have finally had their fill of a crack-pot Green-Labor alliance, are over the hype of having their first ever female PM and just want this government out.
I mean, it's all very lovely to express concern over the environment, though have Labor defined what they will invest their carbon-tax revenue in, this or can they even justify why a tax of this nature would prove beneficial in a global-environmental context, when company's will only take their industry off-shore and pollute developing nations elsewhere and take once Aussey jobs with them?
Labor have failed to deliver, and Greens will be seen as
THAT 'power broking alliance' serving an illegitimate government doing absolutely nothing even remotely relevant to their own partys core values.
Not everyone is gay, or a refugee, time the Greens woke up to this fact and started being true to their own core political values.
And when the fall-out starts over the contemptuous actions of the NSW Labor (excuse for a) government in selling off power for bargain basement prices, Federal Labor's stock will more than likely plunge.
