Tony Fitzgerald's speech for the launch of Margo Kingston's new book "Not happy, John!" has the title "Howard a 'radical'". I have always thought of Howard as an economic radical, but a social conservative. Given the change, the return to the future model he's having us digest, perhaps he is radical all round. To me, he's ideological, and prepared to trash our institutions to insinuate his ideologies. The frightening thing is that this may not be one-sided. I certainly don't feel comfortable with a Latham alternative, despite any hope for Howard to be rolled this time around.

What's AginSpin?
Comments and statistics, factoids, etc, esp concerning Australian politics and society. A small response to the very big problem of the spin doctors. Infrequent, but at least impassioned and committed.
