The simple fact is that it is not enough to “punish Labor” in the coming elections. The real challenge is to build a political alternative to Labor that will act for the majority, not slavishly serve the billionaire class.

We do. Yes. Need the other parties to start acting like it too. Last election in vic Libs were busy sucking their thumbs and Greens wanted to make the yarra swimable. I mean c’mon guys… lets be real here.
Imagine rivers and creeks you could swim in. Tell ‘em they’re dreamin’.
Sorry but on the priority list it aint shit. Its a great idea, but the health system is in crisis, people cant afford homes, public transport frequency is a joke (to say nothing of the airport link) and the greens go “we’re gonna make the yarra swimable!” Like, really? thats up there with RFK Jr thinking that bear story was gonna make sense.
I don’t think it’s comparable to JFK’s bear crime thing.
I also wasn’t directly replying to your earlier comment (even though it was in a reply to a comment of yours and referencing something you said, sounds weird I know). I just really wish we had clean rivers and creeks to swim in among other things.
Maybe that policy was very localised and appealed to their members and supporters and was a winner for them. You might know more about how it came to be and whether it had any impact or not.
