  1. Does Richard Prebble really have anything relevant to say? He was a senior member of a government that brought in the economic system that we have today. Record homelessness, explosion of food banks and inequality, a housing crisis, not to mention a massive infrastructure deficit and record number of people jumping ship for greener pastures. And the two terms they served saw some of the lowest economic growth in this country’s history. A complete failure of a government yet in his deluded state he thinks they were transformational in turning this country around. Clearly part of the problem not the solution. Oh well, bring him on, I need a good laugh.

    Who can deny that.

     Every generation learns much more than the last. “We saw so much more because we are standing on the shoulders of giants.” Issac Newton. 
    Young people today have the benefit of accessing all the information of the world in their hand held devices.
    Two examples; Despite all their adult’s sophistry and rationalisations, the genocide in Gaza cannot be hidden from them.

    Despite all the adult denial, the science of climate change is available to them. And they have organised themselves to oppose it.

    No wonder then that our generation is afraid to give them the vote.
