Notice too the rumours around Addison Rd Centre that Andrews was actually fishing for a job with the same Senator John Faulkner above but got stranded, not least from complaints by this writer, at the ARC rather than face scrutiny before a Senate Estimates Committee. Oh the irony of it all.
Our sad conclusion is that the ALP Left have been beaten down and exploited by the ALP Right - spivs like Master of Conflicted Self Interest Paul Keating - for so long that they have ended up copying the same sleazy self interest modus operandi. Becoming what they hate. 
Those with any integrity left should probably consider splitting from a broken ALP Parliamentary Party under a new labour umbrella and go into coalition with the Green Party. And leave the sleaze behind. It's the next logical step in the evolution of Australian politics in the ecological 21C.
