The greatest achievement of the Dismissal has been the crushing of the ALP’s ambition to actually bring a better world into being.
Hawke sealed the deal by making the mark of success decent management of a capitalist economy.
Now it’s just ambition to be in government.

Police also authorised a June protest outside NSW parliament by a group called "White Australia", who led Saturday's event.
Hannah Thomas required surgery after police allegedly struck her at a pro-Palestine protest. She was charged with three offences. She's "sickened" to see the force approve a neo-Nazi rally on the steps of parliament, arguing it exposes "a clear double standard".
