Dealing with the growing risk of insurgency

Waleed and Scott ( ABC;s Minefield) raised questions on everyone's mind as we wait  for an election result ,
Unlike Aly,  I don't see the left right division as under threat, so I don't accept his scenario of new parties involving the Greens.( see below) "

The situation across the West is more complex
Even though globalism is the target of many for our economic woes,  secularism's failure  and "government as good god" is driving the lack of productivity and hope that keeps the overly comfortable ABC elite focusing on  the war on everything . . Like Donald Trump these forces are not intelligent ---just reactionary  . This insurgent prone reality amongst the left puts Labor and its growing failures, in focus .  The failure to take  on the big picture of care ( loyalty) means the left is lost in a constant game or rebadging the problems. Avoiding loyalty and playing with the latest relationships/

Yes the traditional reasons to be in either Liberal and Labor are changing , but they are best addressed by cutting the subject in  away which is less superficial . I find Chestertons categories of progressives and conservatives most helpful. ( My own vote compasses above and below ) for what they are worth .

Of particular note is Gilbert's lively awareness of the shallow drivers for many  progressives and the way it can cocontentate  with the resurgent temptation in All of us . More powerful today because its potency was evident even 100 years ago.

 I broadcast this excerpt from his work  some years ago

Greens as progressives

The Greens can't grow in Australia (under Aly's scenario ; where he thinks that just because the issue of sustainability is big , it will work to have a party named after a problem )
What will work ( as it has before ) is Barnabys Joyce's idea of grounded competence and public service restored,
For example,  having had their impractical fling with Labor and lost., divorce is certain.  The Greens win votes by taking the heavenly ground, but lose the minds long term because they haven't checked where the tax would have some earthly use. They still think a tax is "the answer" .Vision must touch base. Windmills .

The majors are glossless,  but they have sustainability because they both touch base with practical spending realities and some form of ideal society The Greens aren't sure what we should eat , wear or house ourselves in. Since when did politics become so impractical? 

Labor as lost 
It was good to have Aly havva go  at the old categories, Labor are losing heartland to divisions they set up as relationships ,
Aly  missed the point that Labor  are cultivating a diversity of shacking up   divorce and marriage almost in the same breath. Paradoxically, they want us to believe they know a better way to do family -when they only reflect families under deep threat  .True representative but not in their own mind.

Labor is the one who needs to find a new ideological home because its own mates on the insurgent field are overtaking them - in their own game ,

Media as lost    Libby Gore celebrates the new Senate as entertainment .   The ABC is the home of many insurgents who should be sacked ; they waste our creative energies and provide a cynical and futureless mentorship for our children Their only raison d 'etre is to wage such wars at our family's expense .
Truly the Senate will be "the parliament we  deserve " yes but more ., Sadly cultivating more rebellion while the wires pf the internet  burn is dumbing down ABC all over  . While ABC plays news as entertainment,  the colosseum games of blood sacrifice( apart from their own) will continue 

Liberals as family

For all their faults,  the LNP demonstrates in practice the practical demands of family  ( at least at the moment )  . They have most of their disagreements in house, they have a proper certificate of marriage  ( unlike the unhappy divorce between Hanson =Brown and Bowen on Q and A), they put up with blinkered progressives like Turnbull  and they talk tough about the budget .  They show what loyalty and family  is in a way which should inspire us to support them for the next three years

One can only hope they don't give up in the face of a senate full of noisy children .
