Start the Change

The new year has started as the old finished – with Labor attempting to put a new face on its fifteen year old government and continuing to make
decisions based on its own political goals and not the best interests of the public.

A month after Joe Tripodi and Eddie Obeid chose the State’s latest Labor premier, Ms Keneally is yet to announce a single new initiative to help families and business deal with the daily challenges they confront.

Last week NSW found itself with its fourth Labor Premier in four years - chosen by those Nathan Rees described as the 'malignant and treacherous' forces with the Labor Party, Eddie Obeid and Joe Tripodi - with the public again denied any say.

Over the last two weeks, I've visited numerous communities and people have been strongly reinforcing the need for better infrastructure in NSW, especially transport.

I remember well the last days of the school year when report cards were looming. I spent many hours working through a measured defence of results, which I anticipated would be peppered with comments such as "could do better".
