The Labor paradox: Too progressive, not progressive enough (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Labor governments face criticism from both sides, but progress requires compromise, consensus and accepting that not every change will suit everyone, writes Dr Victoria Fielding. IN MY 20 YEARS involved in Labor Party politics, I have never seen so much negativity and critique of the Labor Party as I see in the public sphere today. This discontent, this wave of grievance, unsurprisingly batters Australia’s Labor governments from the Right, particularly the Far-Right, which is basically all of th
Jason Arday’s death exposes institutional racism in academia (opens the original)
Read excerpt

Read excerpt
Nine's decision to sack Karl Stefanovic over one far-right interview raises questions about where the broadcaster chose to draw the line, writes Dr Victoria Fielding. RIGHT FROM THE START, I want to make it clear that I have no sympathy for sacked Channel 9 Today presenter Karl Stefanovic.
