Keating was an incarnation of slum raised Jack Lang are master protean with a determination never to revisit the squaler of his early years and to raise those in the slum existence out of their misery and to give everyone an equal voice and vote. Hard to imagine the depth of cronyism in NSW prior to Jack.
PJK took it upon himself to seek guidance from Lang before joining the ALP. Jack was proud to be an in your face radical and Paul's dad openly admired that, so it was lock for Keating. Take no prisoners and take on the enemy was what we got as consequence.
I did rather well during Keating's reign although I lamented his FID, BAD and FBT etc shite. Having to pay fringe benefits tax ontop of the 3hr Friday arvo business lunch cost, plus tips to the dancing girls was stretching the friendship IMO.
Insofar as political policy being a moving feast Parsifal, of course it is, but meat and three veg still serves as a pretty solid foundation in the kitchen. Neo Labor has chosen quinoa and patty cakes instead IMO
