why did the ALP concede anything, Bandt was always going to side with them in the lower house
this is going to make it harder for Shorten and the like down the track when they want the middle ground in an election
it's the equivalent of Howard doing a deal with One Nation, but he was never so stupid as to legitimise her party, he just neutralised her by taking some of her policy
Gillard has legitimised the Greens....the ALP will pay the price. I am sure of it.
Believe it or not, despite my Liberal bias I am a moderate voter and most of my views are moderate. The Greens are left wing extremist nuts. Bad bad outcome for Australia giving them any power.
