I like Keating, pretty much always have. But with this - it's more like an attack when you are in Parliament - it's more personal than a spotlighting of facts

Whilst I agree with his opinion on much of it, it really doesn't stick any big spears into Dutton's guts, it just says - he sucks. That's about it really.

Duddos Great Big Nuke Idea left both Duddo and the Liberal Party wide wide wide open for attacks on god knows how many angles

not just for his choice of nuclear, not just for his what seem clear attempts at stifling renewables and probably extending fossil ----------- but, for his absolutely crystal clear total stripping away of 80 years of Liberal Party principles -

what was kind of being done with a wink, but hidden behind the curtains or under the bed - is now crystal crystal crystal and way out in the open for all to see

dumping small government
dumping government to get out of the way
dumping private enterprise can do it better
dumping opposition to government ownership
dumping the opposition to centralised control - going straight to the Moscow/Beijing model
dumping low debt
dumping opposition to big spend
dumping opposition to radical change
dumping state power and literally promising to bulldoze over the states
dumping freedom and playing loose - promising takeovers of private property, like it or not

Dutton should have the utter crap ripped out of him ---- the standout for the actual nuke program being doable -------- is that it's not - because of time to build - mission impossible

But, Dutton has done a lot lot more than that - he's changed the whole political scene

some of it is good, a lot of it is dreadful -

one thing stands out like a sore thumb though --------- that the old Liberal party just died ---------- a revolver to the head - one shot. Done

There's a new Liberal party now - and totally gone is any semblance of conservative at all

And with Duttos ideas ------- our right leaning friends on here will have to jump ship very quickly if their beliefs in 'commo' and 'comrade' hold fast -

because Duddo has moved way way way over to that side - Chairman Duddo in centralised Canberra/Moscow/Beijing

Keating wouldn't have missed that a couple of decades ago IMO
