1st Diary note:
“Is death to be feared?”
2nd Diary note:
“3rd Factor Politics”
Politics - always 'parochial - rich versus poor.
Now, a 3rd factor - Factor - the environment, or more precisely, the enviro-carnage, throws THE spanner in the works of the supporters, left and right, of the upper AND lower classes' unsustainable culture.
Both Workers and super-rich struggle with REALLY going Green, 'cause the lifestyle can be so feckin' GROUSE!
3rd Diary note:
The Inde Party?
With the current Austpolitic situation in limbo, the 3 Amigo Independents and others having the advantage over the two mainstream parties, certain possibilities are likely to emerge.
What is most possible, is that we will see an “Independents' party” develop, informal, unwritten, but behind closed minds, a consortia might be born.
If that gives their Independence 'Strength', then it should be allowed to happen, as the 3 Amigos have received pressure from the right-wing parties so far, and the grouping can only help each of them cope.
The danger is that the 1st sniff of a 'group' of Independents, (which is bound to grow, as Independent Representation is on the increase globally), is bottled to become a Nationals-leaning right-wing rural 'fightback' against the perceived 'left-wing' Greens?
Perhaps here it's necessary to say that, from my interpretations, the Greens, are the 1st of “parties” to be born in the 21st century here, and are made up of a different hue of politicians, all intelligent to highly intelligent, and not from within the dogmatic cloisters of the main parties.
That any party or politician is labelled “left”, or “right”, is probably out-of-date to Greens, whether Candidates, Reps and/or “Green Livers”. It's regarded as 1stly, a fabricated and simplistic narrowing of political arguments in general, and may be seen, and known, as the cause and seat of, and the means to sustain, corruption? Corruption which may have at it's base, the centralisation of power, made manifest in “leaders”, and the parties behind them to keep them in the spotlight? For centralising power, where other, smaller, Local players rightly rule or manage the Local Mob, Tribe, Nation, is a corrupt way to govern, but which also exposes the anti-Local, anti-Community agenda of those who advocate central and single-leader rule.
“Left wing policies” have broadened far from the old paradigms, such as from state control of commerce and control of most aspects of individuals' lives, as have “right wing policies” become inclusive of what were once (to the political classes of old) extremely “COMMUNIST!@#$%^”, and “... more Red than Mao!”
So it is with the Greens. Not a party which was invented to cater for a growing techno-class, nor inner-city class, nor rural bighouse mobs, nor a disenfranchised, dispossessed lower, working or slave class, nor any other sizeable body of voters whose lives have become what they have because of some cultural change or advancement, the Greens grew because the fundament itself beneath all life and activities, was under threat.
A Deeeeeeeeep Green like myself regards every invention since the industrial revolution as pernicious mucking with the fabric of the Cosmos, the results we are presently being scared-shitless by - climate change.
But it's over-the-top to think Humans cannot harmonise our techno-jollies lifestyles with the Natural Economy of the Environment.
So, 'left and right' politics have passed their used-by date, and, with those welded-on politicians, should be shot, cremated AND, like Tiny Habit, buried forever-and-ever, amen.
The sooner we all move out from those dated paradigms, and ideally, as the Hopeful Rob Oakeshott suggested, to consensus government, the sooner left and right can be forgotten.
Other 'tags' will come, and better suit the leaning parties, individual MPs, and punters perhaps, but I think labelling Greens as “left-wing” or “far left-wing” will not, and should not be taken seriously. Indeed, as with idiots and geriatrics, the label will be meant as provocation or an incitement to get a reaction, so not worth the breath.
Any Inde's party now, will be seen as, and grabbed-at in the hope it can be made into, a Libs' or right-wing proxy to uphold the elites' refusal to accept that economic practices must take a back-seat to Correcting our SERIOUSLY unsustainable cultural practices which damage the Bio-Diversity in the Local and Global Environment.
I guess the irony is that, by reforming the most fundamental economic elements, we clean-up our naughty economic practices, which at-once enormously improves them, and, AND, makes them tenable and sustainable, so there would, or, should be no loss to any party or individual?
Conclusive evidence confirms from all Credible Scientific, Cultural, Social, Political and Economic Groups, that we are WAY-OUT in terms of Correct Enviro-Economic living.
Australia, has the worst record and level of “heavy footprint” on the Environment.
THIS - Reform of our cultural ways, is the Key-Stone Independents must insert into it's paramount place on the bridge to an updated parliament and thus, Nation.
So if the Indes can maximize the Opportunity, and, if, as they would have us believe, they are NOT partisan, and want 1st, Balanced National parle-government, Greens' Issues must be accepted AND adopted in their considerations.
Thus, Environmental Law Reforms must be insisted-upon.
Best if both “sides” of cross-benchers agree on that, early.
If the cross-benchers can so do, it could act to induce the Lib/Nats and the farmer/miners consortia, and enliven the ALP, to admit and accept that current cultural and agricultural industrial practices need to change - BIG TIME!
From here, Australia goes nowhere if a right-wing “Inde-block” develops, and is courted, captured and manipulated by the enemies of “the Environment” per-se, and enemies of Fundamental Cultural and Economic Reforms.
If I knew which of the many sides held power in Canberra, I might edge for a national military coup de ta?
If, the “hanging” goes on undecided, if “supply” faulters, if the People take to the streets, or W.C.S., if rioters lead the public to an uprising (extreme odds), “Marshall law” and some mellow “civilised” military activation, and involvement in parliament, or infrastructure - essential and public services - food supply, medical, rail, airports, power, water, is to be assumed as Proper, and as their Duty, until parliament, in whatever form the population agrees on, is restored.
Of course, Military has to acknowledge that a take-over of government by them is no solution.
But, that it had to occur, shows some reforms have to happen to parliament, and, it will be found, to a number of Key Foundational formula, cultures, attitudes and policies, if the Advice is Credible?
3-to-2-tier government management structure changes.
Independence as a Nation?
Republic? Australian monarchy?
Proportional Representation.
National Land Tax.
3-to-2, the Republic and until implemented, Land Tax, demand the Greatest Effort from all, in all levels of government, and departments, and are the 3 Agendas the 3 Amigos, 1stly are not strong enough to bat for alone, against the no-holes-barred land thieves, grabbers, speculators, without cross-bench and the Wisest Party with them, but 2ndly, are the underpinning and future Bedrock of all other necessary Reforms' success.
So, if the 3 Agendas are not accepted by the 3 Amigos, and by Andrew Wilke, Adam Banf/Greens, and enough other cross-benchers, all the huff-and-puff of “reform” in government affairs - Local, State and National - will mean nothing, and will tell the voters and the world that Australia is lost in a labyrinth of offshore upclub cultural political, ethical and economic shitholes.
