"There will be much debate about whether the proposed rule changes - TopicsExpress



          

"There will be much debate about whether the proposed rule changes will go far enough and whether a 30 day intervention from the centre can generate a renewed party where power resides in the grassroots. At the moment the bureaucracy has been left intact. In today’s Financial Review, Labor reformer Rod Cavalier said that the changes would not “stop the rise to power of a figure like Mr Obeid”. One of the proposals is to ban property developers from standing as candidates. This misses the point. It is the mates who do the bidding of those with special economic interests – gambling, mining, property development and so on – who are the problem, no matter which of the two major parties are in control in NSW."
