Australia’s Labor Party Must Return to Working-Class Values

2 months ago | jacobin.com | Doug Cameron

Interview by Zac Gillies-Palmer In 2019, Australian Labor Party (ALP) senator Doug Cameron summed up his eleven-year senate career with characteristic candor. “It all comes down to one thing: socialism,” he said. Cameron’s words — and the commitment underlying them — stem from his career as a blue-collar unionist in the Hunter Valley, an industrial hub in New South Wales.

According to Strava, the social network for athletes, this is the date which most of us have already failed at and maybe even given up on our New Year’s resolutions.

FAITH & VALUES: Civility sadly lacking in today’s world

Oct 11, 2024 | mtstandard.com | Doug Cameron

I think it is safe to say that we have a mess in our world, country, and even our state. We seem to have lost the ability or maybe even the desire to be civil to those with whom we disagree. As we approach the November election, the mean-spirited divisiveness continues to ramp up. Attitudes and actions may be summed up as follows: I am right, so, obviously you are wrong. If you are not with me, you are the enemy and should be destroyed. All is fair in this war.
