I wish for a PM who would dissociate from her/his own team…
“The party has become a party of fear and of reaction, its conservative and not liberal, it is unrecognisable”
I wish for a PM who would be revolutionary for his/her time…
“There is strength in this kind of diversity so long as we understand what it’s about”
I wish for a PM who would place people over fiscal positions…
“The strength of a proper functioning democracy rests on our capacity to prevent the arbitrary exercise of repressive powers against any person”
I wish for a PM who would do the right thing…
“If we had taken polls… I think people would have voted 80, 90 per cent against us but we explained the reasons for it”
I wish for a PM who would genuinely be the ‘Prime Minister for Indigenous Affairs…
“There are no quick fixes to Indigenous poverty and social disaster. Solutions will be found when the non-Indigenous people respect the insights of Indigenous people, and listen to them”
I wish for a PM who would not abuse the power they wield…
“Such powers had to be restrained because they destroyed the values and the order that they pretended to serve”
I wish for a PM like Malcolm Fraser…
RIP
