This week's announcement of decisive and considered measures to buffer Australia, and especially its less well-off inhabitants, from the global financial meltdown, and to reassure the markets about the security of Australian banking system, is timely and impressive.
Kevin07 has been criticized, largely by those with nothing better to do other than generate news when there is none (e.g. BBC correspondent Nicholas Bryant), for inaction and caution, having the temerity to wait for reviews rather than rush to fill soundbites and pander to the media gallery, and daring to travel overseas to put Australia's case on the world stage. He has answered many of those criticisms and should be commended for it. I dread to think what Little Johnny would have done, other than pretend it all wasn't happening, as he did with climate change.
