Fourth, and relatedly, let's have less small-target, short-term political tactics and more large long-term strategies, please. Big, bold battles of ideas won't actually hurt us. And the alternative, as we are seeing in Australia right now, is contests fought on personality and "competence" that I think is truly depressing. If that's all this place is about, what's the point? Play your politics in Opposition timid, and you'll necessarily govern timid, as well. I say again "Be bold".
