Yes and no. Yes the top end of town certainly has #AlboPM ‘s ear. But there’s also Labor’s dogged adherence to neoliberal economics (I guess because #Labor doesn’t believe there are any other suitable economic systems that can be successfully delivered) and then there’s foreign govts (Our on-selling export gas importers), they have clout in investments (Japan is the biggest gas infrastrure and minerals extraction industries investor) and in middle power defence alliances (shoring up US’s decreasing reliability as an ally). Also, large foreign corporations threatening to walk out if things get too progressive, etc..
It’s a complex issue. But it’s also very, very simple, #AlboPM is too whimpy to say NO to any of these bullies and too focussed on keeping Labor in power.
