4. A government genuinelyaccountable to the people. Community councils and referenda, not fakeconsultation. An end to cronyism and thepollies' gravy-train, and an end to corporateinterests buying favour and manipulatingdemocracy. Why are so many highly-paidlobbyists former ALP M.P.s and bureaucrats?
