Montgomery Burns and John Howard
Kevin Rudd is about as colorful as a dead fish. Apparently his speech to the Labor conference contained a few gems but rambled on way too long.
Either Kevin has some hidden talent though, or some good advisers.
I’m enjoying the current debate about which party and which leader actually has a vision for Australia. I’m not convinced that any party or leader has a vision beyond the next election, but it’s interesting to follow the debate.
Rudd has accused Howard of being in denial over climate change. Howard has accused Rudd of being the puppet of the Greens and Left over carbon trading, and released a courageous policy in support of nuclear energy.
Fans of Yes Minister will know what I mean by courageous.
I really liked Rudd’s response, when he referred to Howard as “Montgomery Burns”. It was a great rejoinder and I think it will stick. The caricature is there to be made.
Personally I don’t have a fixed view on nuclear energy for Australia but I support uranium mining.
