Look, Good Government Doesn't Look For Excuses,

Now If You Are Condemned To Life On Welfare, I'm Not So Sure That Being In A Bigger Welfare Village Is That Much Better Than Being In A Smaller Welfare Village.

What I Would Like To See Is Sufficiently Good Education And Health Services Being Delivered To Aboriginal People So That They Are Prepared And Ready To Leave And Join The Economic Mainstream If That's Their Choice.

I Think It Would Be Folly To Expect That Women Will Ever Dominate Or Even Approach Equal Representation In A Large Number Of Areas Simply Because Their Aptitudes, Abilities And Interests Are Different For Physiological Reasons.

The Thing About Social Media Is That It Is Anonymous, So It Can Be Much More Vitriolic And Extreme Than Normal Media And Yet It Is There For Everyone To See. It Is Kind Of Like Electronic Graffiti. The Political Process Is Accelerated And Intense In A Way That I Don't Believe It Ever Really Has Been Before.

The Last Thing Australia Needs Right Now Is Instability And Uncertainty.
