What’s happened to my old Labor Party?

Readers' forum letters

Despite being an ALP supporter for many decades (but now no longer a member) I am disappointed in Premier Chris Minns’ performance of late.

He antagonised the nurses (underpaid hard workers with very little bargaining power) and now he’s sticking it to the transport union (More train delays as negotiations fail, CCN 468) – behaviour that one would normally associate with the LNP.

Funny; I could’ve sworn that he was an ALP member – the Party of the workers.

It is certainly no longer the Party that I joined in 1972.

As the LNP lurches increasingly to the right with the ALP happily following, the centre (and possible balance of power) is now left to The Greens and Independents; perhaps this is not such a bad thing?
