Oh the tedious inevitability of it all

another rejection..

The split in the ranks of Australia's conservatives lends an air of the hypocritical to their earlier attacks on the Labor party's factionaldisputes (Party tricks bring Vaile home, 31st May). Perhaps they could agree that some dissent within their party as well as in society more generally can be a productive thing. Surely a political system which fosters debate and dialogue is the basis of a more robust democracy than one in which a false homogeneity is maintained?
