Like all journo's Steve from many sources, sometime I read her pieces sometimes I don't, sometimes I agree with her sometimes I don't, especially with op-eds.

OK now I’ve read (a quick scan) of the article I can comment on it. She speaks to voter disenchantment and low turn-out etc as many have. What needs to be said, I think is what would the political landscape look like for another party to have won.

The only other party with the structure large enough to have carried that off is of course the tories but for them to have won they would have either had persuade enough of the electorate to go with them to the far right or return to their traditional ground and ask for forgiveness from the middle classes and then they would of course need the centre. As history shows they couldn’t/didn’t do either. They just thrashed around wrecking the economy and blaming everyone else
Back to the article, if the tories had won under either scenario above would the underlying conditions be any different or a whole lot worse?

For the past 14+ years there has been a tory party determined and with the help of the media to lie about about the gfc and labour and then it got worse from there, is there any wonder under these conditions that the electorate is a bit confused and a lot disinterested?

Some will read my op-ed some won’t, of those that do some may agree others won’t.
