Things the Rudd Government appears to have decided in the last four and a half months.
[Huddled somewhere in downtown Canberra]
Lets' spin the chocolate wheel and............
- Have a national litter scheme, now that the whole country knows that federal and state governments can't agree about what to do with those nasty plastic bags.
- Talk about Australia-wide one stop child care centres, to cover the fact that the 'best and brightest' going to the 2020 summit are revealing a paucity of new ideas.
- Rabbit on about having signed Kyoto, but make sure that there are strong shoulders against the door keeping the Prof and his climate change report out in the cold and large-scale renewable energy at bay.
- Try not to mention the Murray-Darling water crisis again, for every punter is well aware that federal government will do nothing serious about environmental water flows for the next three to four years.
- Keep supporting that international lawbreaking Coalition of the Willing, now that the PM's plan to take some (not all) troops out of Iraq has been decided on - what the heck, let's increase our troop numbers in Afghanistan for good measure to show that Australia is still a good 'deputy-sheriff'.
- While we're at it, let's stamp on more basic human rights simply because we are back in government and can do so.
- Campaign like it is 2007 and constantly react with moral panic, just in case the voters notice that nobody is actually running the country.
- Next year review the whole concept to see if it would have been better to hold a lucky dip instead.
