Ironically, the current Labor government's actions are strikingly similar to those of the later Menzies years with inaction, blind subservience to a foreign power, and progressive stasis the norm.
Thanks for this brilliantly nuanced, cogently-argued and well-researched exploration of a fraught time, a set of complex postures and a deeper-than-my-caricature politician I cheerfully admit I had nearly zero actual knowledge about.
Much rarer in *any* politics, I’d say. Well said!
Really enjoyed the History lesson on Menzies, hopefully Labor can learn from history and turnaround from our blind trust in the USA as a caring Ally
Thank you Peace be with you
