    The Slow Death of a Salesman

    The slow death of a salesman Authors: Deborah Snow, Andrew West, Publication: Sydney Morning Herald Mathew Moore & Damien Murphy Section: News Review Date: 13/09/2008 Pages: 28-29 Words: 4,010 Source: SMH Like Kevin Rudd, Nathan Rees's ambition was enough to put him above other would-be contenders for political leadership. To those outside politics, Nathan Rees's installation as Premier came as a bolt from the blue. But forces working against Morris Iemma had been gathering for months. As a number of Labor insiders tell it, his unwavering support for privatisation of the state's power industry was not the only cause of Iemma's downfall. The NSW Labor headquarters in Sussex Street, under the leadership of its secretary, Karl Bitar, 37, had tu rned against Iemma months before when his disapproval ratings soared. Iemma told colleagues he detected a change in Bitar's attitude towards him from about Christmas. "By March you could see that Morris was doing worse than the party," a source said. "The punters out there thought they had been conned; Morris came in as premier and said it was a new government. They had given him the benefit of the doubt and progress had not been made. So the electorate was pissed off." Against the drum-beat of the polls, the privatisation debate was growing steadily more bitter. Party bosses had kept a tight lid on the festering tensions over electricity during last year's federal election campaign. But once that was out of the way, all bets were off. "Karl Bitar and Joh n Robertson [the UnionsNSW boss] did nothing else from the Monday after the federal election until the state party conference in May except try to manage the electricity debate," said a source.

    Chapter 1 Introduction Section 1.1: ‘A fit place for women’? Section 1.2: Problems of sex, gender and parliament Section 1.3: Gender and the Parliament, 1995-1999 Section 1.4: Expectations on female MPs Section 1.5: Outline of the thesis Section 1.1: ‘A fit place for women’? The Sydney Morning Herald of 27 August 1925 reported the first speech given by a female Member of Parliament (hereafter MP) in New South Wales. In the Legislative Assembly on the previous day, Millicent Preston-Stanley, Nationalist Party Member for the Eastern Suburbs, created history. According to the Herald: ‘Miss Stanley proceeded to illumine the House with a few little shafts of humour. “For many years”, she said, “I have in this House looked down upon honourable members from above. And I have wondered how so many old women have managed to get here - not only to get here, but to stay here”. The Herald continued: ‘The House figuratively rocked with laughter. Miss Stanley hastened to explain herself. “I am referring”, she said amidst further laughter, “not to the physical age of the old gentlemen in question, but to their mental age, and to that obvious vacuity of mind which characterises the old gentlemen to whom I have referred”. Members obviously could not afford to manifest any deep sense of injury because of a woman’s banter. They laughed instead’. Preston-Stanley’s speech marks an important point in gender politics. It introduced female participation in the Twenty-seventh Parliament. It stands chronologically midway between the introduction of responsible government in the 1850s and the Fifty-first Parliament elected in March 1995.

CORRIE DONAGHEY* AND KATE GALLOWAY** Abstract Recent public debates about same-sex marriage and women’s right to abortion have challenged the party divide that normally forms the foundation for parliamentary voting. Instead of a clear party line dictating the way in which members of Parliament vote, such issues tend to be regarded as ‘moral’ issues warranting a vote of conscience. In the sometimes-heated public debates on these issues, Christian Churches and Church-based groups are vocal in stating their case and many members of parliament likewise express their position in terms of a Church view. Others however reject the role of the Churches in these debates, arguing instead that the argument is based upon the premise that for Parliament to be truly representative, members’ decision-making of the Churches have no place in determining the rights of all Australian citizens. The latter n issues of conscience should not be beholden to Church views that are not representative of the community.
  • The NSW 2011 Election: a Tale of Hubris, Knaves and Scallywags

    The NSW 2011 Election: a Tale of Hubris, Knaves and Scallywags

    The NSW 2011 election: a tale of hubris, knaves and scallywags Elaine Thompson* On March 28, 2011, some 4,635,810 electors were enrolled to vote at the four-year fixed term election in New South Wales. The results were no surprise; indeed they were a foregone conclusion, with the Labor government which had been in power for 16 years, resoundingly defeated in both houses. The reasons were not hard to find: massive hubris by a government which itself admitted it had ignored voters’ wishes and needs; promises made on much-needed infrastructure that were started and then dropped; ever-present scandals and accusations of corruption and indifference;1 sweetheart deals and suspected personal patronage;2 party apparatchiks from Labor headquarters in Sydney’s Sussex Street 3 being seen to be dominating and directing policy, premiers and pre- selection;4 the midnight last-minute privatisation of electricity; the cynicism of placing Treasurer Eric Roozendahl at the top of Labor’s upper house ticket;5 abuse of the parliamentary processes;6 large numbers of ministerial and other resignations in the year leading up to the election (22 in total); and, in the last months, a premier who attempted to distance herself from her own party.7 The 2011 election was not helped for Labor by the extremely late selection of candidates for a number of seats8 and the selection of some extremely poor candidates. Labor also had alienated many ethnic voters, particularly the Chinese by its treatment of former prime minister, Kevin Rudd. Moreover, as with all voters, Labor had neglected what had been its strong ethnic base, while the opposition leader, Barry O’Farrell, had been courting this base for the four years leading up to the election, a courtship which paid off in 2011 according to election analyst Antony Green, as well as analyst of ethnic communities, Professor Andrew Jacubowicz.9 * Dr Elaine Thompson is a former editor of the Australasian Parliamentary Review, retired associate professor of politics from UNSW and long-time commentator on elections and parliament.
