Have a captain cook Scott;
One consolation is that history will likely be kind towards Carr. He led the Labor Party in New South Wales for seventeen years, ten of them as premier—the longest anyone has served continuously in that office. Among the achievements during his premiership were the custodianship of the most successful Olympic Games ‘ever’; the retirement of $12 billion of public debt; the creation of 350 national parks; reform of tort law and the police service; and the improvements in literacy placing NSW school students among the best-performing in the world (see Wanna & Williams 2005; West & Morris 2003). Moreover, through his fusion of economic discipline and piecemeal legislative reform, Carr provided a model of success for Labor state and territory premiers across the country.
