This week, SAS Group Executive Director Larry Anthony discusses the latest in politics across the country.
NSW State Election overview
The New South Wales election was held on 28th March. The Liberal and National Coalition have retained government, with a significant majority.
The win is significant for several reasons:
- Mike Baird now has a clear mandate for his privatisation agenda, despite heavy negative campaigning by opposition parties and trade unions;
- The Coalition’s victory has defied the trend in Victoria and Queensland, where first-term Coalition governments were voted out of office;
- The win occurred in the face of backlash against key elements of the Federal Coalition’s agenda and legislative delays in the Senate.
The swing against the Coalition was very small (3.3% against the Liberal Party and 1.8% against the National Party).
It appears the Coalition will also have a rare majority in the Legislative Council.
