Can't read the whole article, but Howes will argue for a rules change in favour of a binding SSM vote. In non-SSM news, Rinehart is withdrawing from the court dispute with her kids.

Howes on domestic policy, with super-infrastructure linkage as his big theme.

Speaking of Sen. Carr... though this was a 1-cycle story at the time.

For some reason Chris Kenny thinks Labor will roll over on the carbon tax... not that it matters because Abbott will have the numbers next year anyways.

Do tell about the deal. Given how egomaniacal Palmer is, who knows what his conditions might be next year. At any rate I'd collect the DD triggers as a backup plan.

Tell us how you really feel, Mrs McKew: she calls Rudd's policies "idiotic" with a "perverse and cruel" immigration policy that she "couldn't stomach", and he was "off his game" in the campaign.

Totally desperate re Tas. Wonder when the ALP will learn to stay away from the Greens, since they won't prop up the Coalition anyways.

Rudd considered staying on as leader and threatened to resign if his rules changes weren't approved.

Costello is still sniping at Howard, while offering his usual policy critique and saying Rudd/Gillard could be among the worst-ever PMs. I find it rather ironic that he's complaining about a leadership Battle of the Bands. Pot, kettle, etc.

Bryce came out in favour of a republic and SSM, and both leaders defended her right to express said opinion.

Howes quits AWU and the ALP executive. Admittedly I haven't been following for 6 months, but is there some sort of backstory here?

So Lab's leading WA Senate candidate has a criminal record for assault. If a background check was done, why no veto?

Don't know the backstory, but holy crap: O'Farrell's resigned after being caught lying to a corruption inquiry.

If he's charged with perjury... what are potential sentences?

Somehow I'm neither surprised nor happy.
