Why, is it because you like their-

Financial management skills
Fighting corruption
Enjoy the regular leader change
Think their current leader is hot ?

Yes. Stability in Keneally is also good.

?? This has been one of the most unstable governments we've seen in the history of NSW.

Also, are you with the Labor party? I suspect you are.

To be fair, before Rees there was ten consecutive years of Carr and Refshauge both of whom resigned at a time of their choosing and handed power over to Iemma and Watkins who were elected unopposed and lead for more than three years( a greater length than the premierships of Fahey, Unsworth, Willis, Lewis or Renshaw). I detest Kenneally herself and the fact that the sort of people who support her are presently in control of the caucus but ultimately the reason this government is a dead duck isn't incompetence, it's just old.

I agree completely with this, however he was talking about stability in Keneally and I was referring to the Kenally government. Scandal after scandal, coupled with an avalanche of resignations is hardly a sound definition of stability.

No, I am not affiliated with any party.

Labor is pretty stable actually. The Liberals are certainly not any better.

I made a new thread. At the end of the day, the federal and state Liberal ideologies are the same. Are you trying to imply Barry O'farrel does not support WorkChoices?

After seeing what WorkChoices done, yes. Industrial reform by the Liberals is bad for the average worked. Unless you are a millionaire you should fear the Liberals when they mention the words industrial reform.
