Part of me wants to celebrate, because they're awful, and this will destroy them, but:
1. Many people still agree with them.
2. It's not funny, the science is clear, it's an existential issue.

That the Albanese government believes Graham Richardson deserves a state funeral tells us a lot more about the ethics of the current federal Labor Party than about the late “powerbroker” and rotten-to-the-core Sydney identity.

A state funeral for rotten Richardson says a lot about this Labor government — and what it should be doing instead
Instead of giving the grub Graham Richardson a state funeral, the government should be exploring ways to ensure we never see his like again in politics.

It is easy to forget the times he governed were extraordinarily unlucky.
The oil price in the first 13 months of Whitlam’s govt rose 595% from US$1.87/barrel to US$13.00. Yet, Australia’s economy grew faster than the US, the G7 and the OECD
Beyond GDP he had a vision and transformed this country.

Do the Labor hierarchy care in the slightest?
They talk the talk, but run a mile from any action to care about people and act responsibly.
