I have written ad nauseum about what the impact of a teal whitewash would be: The installation of a rejuvenated Peter Dutton-led Liberal party that would pivot away from its traditional moneyed base and target battlers in the outer suburbs; and a Labor majority government that will bar them from any influence on climate policy whatsoever.
Higher education didn’t feature heavily in the election campaign, yet the sector has high expectations of the new government. The key is the idea of an accord and the change in approach it implies.
