So, a lot has been happening recently and I must say, there seems to be some vindication for those that were more positive than those that are of the negative persuasion.
Emmanuel Macron is the president of France. His party has secured a majority in the National Assembly. All is good in the world of France.
Theresa May got a black eye for calling an election that treated the voters as idiots. Whilst her opponent is undoubtedly a bit too far left, the electorate in the UK at least put in place some markers that will ensure a sensible future around Brexit is now possible. However, some upheaval will certainly continue.
The USA is a black hole for common sense. Say no more. Just watch this 25 year project for the break up of the United States. It has already started.
In Australia, the climate wars seem to be coming to a close but we still have some serious crazies in the government. The prospect of a continuing ‘freeze’ in the common sense required to get the country onto a growth footing in energy is enough to be a drag on the future of Australia.
So what does this mean?
Very simply, we need to lift the vision across the world.
Why can’t we get our collective act together and start to push new horizons for this country. We are Australian. We are innovators and yet we cannot work out how to fix this problem! Let us just do it!
