In a sense yeah. I didn’t expect such a leftwing move from Labor, since people on that part of the political spectrum tend to decry nationalization as commie shit that hinders the Invisible Hand of the Market™.
I’m lost now. Labour are economically left of centre (though arguably have been drifting more right) they’re all for nationalisation. It’s the conservatives (right of centre though moving further right recently and just a bit unhinged lately) that want everything privatised.
Oh I see. Yes, maybe they’ve realised that getting seen like that isn’t helping, especially as they’ve been doing a lot to do with workers rights which clearly is going unnoticed if you think their “whole deal” has been cutting essential services and austerity. (though I’d argue that it’s not essential for people like my dad who’s on a final salary pension of about £35k plus his state pension to receive winter fuel allowance)
I mean I’m certainly not complaining, but why is Labor doing commie shit like this?
Did you forget the /s

Nope. I mean, the current Labor government’s whole deal has been austerity and cutting social services.

It is a bit of an outwardly left-wing move from a centre-right party; I’m sure the other shoe will drop soon
