fully agree on GOP ----------- a horrible thing crawling about the US now
as to 'bring back' ------- for Oz pollies ---------
that's the point really ------------- we cannot
even if Menzies and Howard appeared in a puff of mist and lead the liberal party now -----
they couldn't operate ---------- the Liberal Party principles CANNOT be used in the current age - let alone going forward -
just not possible
so, they would have to tear out their basic principles and replace them with something that would work
therein lies the Liberals problems atm ---------- they 'might' hold power for several more years --------- as might GOP regain power in the US -
but, it can only lurch on so long - like a dead man walking - it must fall and be unable to rise at some stage ------------- without a solid foundation
it seems that conservative values vary from nation to nation - they choose their own flavour ------- which is fine -
in Oz - the grounding principles are ----
small government
government to stay out of the way of business - let business do business
that is IMPOSSIBLE in this time of rapid change - it just cannot work --
and, of course SCOMO is showing us that he's way out of that field when he wants laws to force one private business to pay another private business for something ------------ that's a clear as crystal case of government interference
but, that's not one that HAD to be - the point is - there's hundreds of items that come up now every year that HAVE to have legislation - so, a government just cannot sit back and let business do business
otherwise we'd have drones at our kitchen windows, we'd be up to our arse in green E scooters, we'd have FB watching us get on the bus and take a piss,
we have no choice but to have a continual flow of interfering legislation
the problem for governments is - how the hell to keep up with it
the problem for conservative parties - is to realise that it's 2021 - not 1951
