Bob Hawke was really the last of the original style ALP leaders He understood working folks while not being one.
Â
His successors have gradually lost the working folks in their battle with the Greeens for the "left" of politics.
Â
The only unions they have true support from are public sector unionists - basically still compulsory members.
Meenwhile the centrist Coalition folks pick up the votes of the middle - and win more than they lose.
Â
So Thanks Mr Hawke for the memorires of what a centrist ALP leader could be!
If the centrist Coalition keeps borrowing a trillion dollars and giving it away they will keep picking up votes...
Â
But then we will be in default...
