@CagedDingo @MisterFrog I agree with your points there (and not just the critical ones). Well put. I was a witness to the founding of Vic Socialists, it was dirty, I (and a lot of others) left the Socialist Alliance over their part in it. And besides, I've always been cold on the evangelical fervour typical of SAlt. But you know, I wouldn't have dreamed of joining the Greens party 10 or 15 years ago, and yet here I am. Parties change under the pressure of events (as do we) and the future is unwritten. I hope The Socialists do well and make a difference.
@bencourtice @CagedDingo @MisterFrog and the future is unwritten . . . well said
