That is depends, if the senate is hostile and are bent being obstructive for the sake of it then no, like at federal level.

Wee Willie has paved the way for the T|T for TAT style of government and you can be sure that it will get worse with each change of government.

Guess who loses out?

Well done Mike Baird, we still have an honourable govt in NSW after all the years of being brutalised by labor, they weren't going back to labor in a hurry.

Labor hid their real agenda from the voters and we can all breath a little bit easier now.

who is wee willie?? Do you mean Bill Shorten?  He doesn't really say much so how is he responsible for **bleep** for tat govt?

That's more phony Tony's doing than anyone else. I blame him

What hidden agenda?

Gees you come up with some garbage sometimes. Are you even from NSW?

I wonder if they'll jack up the power price before they sell to make it more appealing to investors.

Congratulations to Mike Baird, his team and the majority of NSW voters !

As Michael Egan says:

'Labor is in denial if it thinks that Saturday's election results were good. They were a disaster'.

...and further:

'Nevertheless, the policies he inherited and took to the people were outdated and wrong. Labor's argument that the sale of the electricity networks would raise prices was completely bogus. The so-called national security argument against privatisation was no more than xenophobic dog whistling. It was an argument I would expect from One Nation or the Greens, but never from Labor.

Labor has to grow up. It has to realise that to be successful the leadership of the Labor Party has to be ready, willing and able to drag the Labor Party kicking and screaming into the real world. I am always amazed that Labor, when in Opposition, has a tendency to turn the clock back and adopt the outdated Labor orthodoxy of forty or fifty years ago. This is one of the recurring features of Labor politics.'

I think Labor would be quite happy with their result, the swing in Vic was much smaller than 10% and I think the Qld election was also less than 10%, they were coming from a long, long way behind in NSW

If I lived in NSW I probably would've voted for the Greens, Mike Baird seems nice enough but I"m not too sure about the policies of either major party there

[idlewhile]

Even the SMH has turned against labor. The worst thing of all for Labor is the Greens did really well at the expense of Labor and yet Labor preferenced them. They said thay would never do deals with the Greens after The Gillard wedding but here they are doing the deal with the devil who is out to destroy them.

[debra9275]

i doubt that any press apart from murdoch's has "turned against Labor". If you're talking about the article above it's what's called an 'opinion piece" shows that they aren't biased imo

speaking of never doing deals, who else said that??  I know it was abbott

Do any of the NSW people here know of this anti-Labor campaign?  I half -heard a segment this morning about this seat which has not yet been declared.
