从陆克文提议看党内民主的来源
老几
据澳洲广播公司报道，陆克文宣布将扩大党内民主，让普通党员来决定党的最高领导，而不是由核心圈的几个人来控制。用陆克文的话说“togive Labor Party members a say in deciding who leads the ALP.”
善良的人看到这个消息可能会想，陆克文真是个讲民主的好人啊。老几不反对这种说法，只不过陆克文这个“好人”，是被政治斗争的丑恶给逼出来的。从过去几年的表现，用前工党领袖，陆的同志马克雷森的话说，陆克文此人之恶劣，无人品好言。
马克雷森有一点像中国的胡耀邦，是个有理想有良知的好同志。问题是政治是个肮脏的游戏，利益高于一切，良知是最要不得的。中外无有不同，人性使然。马克耀邦错误理解了政治，所以结局不好，是必然的。马克雷森怪陆克文给自己捅刀子，给吉拉德捅刀子，却忘了前次吉拉德捅陆克文的前一天，还信誓旦旦表忠心的那幅恶心样子。澳洲与中国不同的是，政客的丑是公开的，给大家娱乐；而中国政坛漆黑一团，外人不知而已。
陆克文挨了一刀后变聪明了，也没有像中国古人那样卧薪尝胆；而是暗中反击，让吉拉德总理同志没有一天好日子过。这次还捅一刀以后，痛定思痛，决定换一种玩法，免得再被工会“政治局”的没面人（FACELESSMEN）雇凶追杀。

阴阳转换，捅刀子的坏事，变成了扩大民主的好事，形势使然，都是出于自己利益。由此推及大陆政坛，强力维稳，贪官反贪，人人自危，也未见得符合政客们的利益。物极必反，矛盾的终点，会不会是一个好的开端？
附英文原文如下：
Prime Minister Kevin Rudd has announced he wants to give Labor Party members a say in deciding who leads the ALP.Mr Rudd says the full federal ministry agreed to the idea on Monday, and he has called a meeting of all Caucus members for a fortnight's time to approve it.He says the change would mean the leader would be elected jointly, with votes from party members given a 50 per cent weighting and the elected Labor Caucus making up the other 50 per cent.
Under the Westminster system, the prime minister is not directly elected, but Mr Rudd says the public wants to know that the prime minister who comes to power will serve a full term in government.
"So this rule change is clear: if a leader of the Australian Labor Party takes the party to the election and they are
returned to form the government of the nation, that person remains as leader of the party in the government for the duration of that term," he said.
returned to form the government of the nation, that person remains as leader of the party in the government for the duration of that term," he said.
The changes mean leaders cannot be replaced in the way Mr Rudd was in June 2010 - or Julia Gillard last month.
"The reforms I announce today will give more power to everyday members of the Labor Party. They will ensure that power will never again rest in the hands of a factional few," Mr Rudd told reporters in Canberra.
"Make no mistake, this is the most significant reform to the Australian Labor Party in recent history.
"It is one that should be welcomed by all members of the ALP across the nation, whether you are a long-serving member of Parliament, a loyal hardworking volunteer, a union activist active in our local branches or a student who has just joined Young Labor."
If the rule change is adopted by Caucus, it would mean that a future Labor prime minister could only be deposed if 75 per cent of Caucus wanted a special ballot - currently only 30 per cent is required.
Candidates would need the support of 20 per cent of Caucus to run, and the ballot would take up to 30 days, instead of the lightning fast changes seen in recent years.
