Nelson's decision to right the ALP on the rollback of WorkChoices is already paying off. Gillard is delaying the rollback of unfair dismissal laws until mid next year at the earliest, knowing that the legislation had no chance of passing in the meantime (unless Turbull rolls Nelson).
I told you. Rudd will want to me-too the Liberals even in government. His policy is still a work-in-progress. If he gave in to his lefty bureaucratic insicts he would be out on his ear like Whitlam in no time. He want's to tread very carefully and never stray far from the path set by Howard.
If Rudd wants to be PM for all Australians he will listen to the Liberals who understand business, and especially small business - the engine of jobs growth. If Rudd want's to stay PM he will doing everything possible to avoid the unemployment rate going up.
