Grattan on Friday: When Labor states don't dance to the Albanese government's tune

Thursday, November 9, 2023

It’s helpful for the Albanese government to have all mainland states in Labor hands – but only up to a point.

Key Points: 
  • It’s helpful for the Albanese government to have all mainland states in Labor hands – but only up to a point.
  • In May, the government announced a 90-day review of the $120 billion infrastructure pipeline it inherited from the Coalition.
  • The government’s aim was to reduce the number of projects (many of them small) and rearrange priorities.
  • The political difficulties of abolishing or changing projects, often involving negotiation with states and territories, are obvious enough.
  • The government has received its stocktake, and Treasurer Jim Chalmers says the overall cost of the program has blown out by some $33 billion.
  • Being pushed into minority is something Albanese – a senior figure in the minority Gillard government – would want to avoid at all costs.
  • The challenge of keeping out of minority increases the importance of the “ground game” in Labor’s marginal electorates.

PAWTUCKET, R.I., Aug. 23, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Earlier this year, US Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy issued an advisory regarding the epidemic of loneliness and isolation, stating that 17% of adults over the age of 65 are socially isolated. A new survey conducted by AARP shows that number is drastically rising, with 32% of adults 50-plus reporting "often or always" feeling lonely or isolated; the sentiment is even higher among the younger population (38% for 50 to 64 vs. 26% for ages 65-plus). To combat this concerning trend, Ageless Innovation, a global company devoted to reimagining how we positively live and age together through the power of play, created the Reach Out and Play initiative. Alongside AARP, hundreds of game-filled events will be organized to rally people of all ages to come together and celebrate older adults, driving meaningful connections through play that is inclusive of all generations.

Key Points: 
  • Over six-in-ten (65%) of adults 50-plus say that playing board games is a great way for them to connect with others.
  • Through the initiative, leaders in the aging industry will come together to organize and support hundreds of Reach Out and Play Board Game Events around the country.
