At our second session on 23 July, we watched an episode of Parkinson in Australia, filmed in the mid 80’s, in which Gough Whitlam reflected on his life and career in Australian Politics. In an age where every person of the left is labelled a ‘mad bloody lefty” by Sky News and in a society where most politicians are called liars and cheats it was interesting to watch Whitlam explain that while they were only able to achieve half of what they wanted when they were in office nevertheless given time all their policies would be put into place. Mr Whitlam comprehensively explained his grasp of just what government can do and should do.
After that we looked up the Rural City of Benalla’s website, attempting to glean just where our rates are spent.
