CEC National Secretary Craig Isherwood today called on Australia’s federal parliamentarians to immediately dump Kevin Rudd and Malcolm Turnbull as leaders of their respective parties, in order to shift Australia to economic policies that will ensure its survival.
“In this global financial crisis, which has hit Australia hard, and will hit us with increasing ferocity in the days and weeks ahead, our nation needs leaders who will take the necessary constitutional measures to guarantee the general welfare of the people of Australia,” Craig Isherwood said.
“But Prime Minister Rudd, and Opposition Leader Turnbull, clearly have a virtually criminal bipartisan pact to bail out the private banking system at the expense of the people,” he charged.
“They are taking their lead from Britain’s Gordon Brown, who is advised by the architect of this collapsing bubble—Alan Greenspan, and Malcolm Turnbull’s former Goldman Sachs business partner on Wall Street, Henry Paulson, to commit Australia’s national financial resources to prop up the hundreds of trillions of dollars of financial derivatives held by the private, international banking system—$13 trillion by Australia’s banks alone.
“Their commitment to this ‘banker first’ approach, and their refusal to take up my party’s proposed Homeowners and Bank Protection Bill, to save the people and put the banks through bankruptcy reorganisation, will destroy Australia and its people.
“For that reason, the genuine elected representatives in the major party caucuses in federal parliament must dump Rudd and Turnbull, and replace them with leaders who are committed to the people first.
“Australia needs the ALP to turn to a leader with the national banking, protectionist outlook of its truly great past leaders, like John Curtin or Ben Chifley, and a Coalition leader to emerge of the calibre of the patriotic, pro-industry “Black Jack” McEwen.
“Under such leadership, Australia could join the trend that has emerged among governments all over the world, to adopt American statesman and physical economist Lyndon LaRouche’s longstanding proposal for a New Bretton Woods reorganisation of the international monetary system, away from globalisation and back to sovereign nation-states committed to the common good of their citizens.
“This is the only pathway to survival for the Australian economy,” Isherwood concluded, “so now is the time for genuine leaders to step forward and remove those private banker agents Rudd and Turnbull, together with their globalist, free trade, deregulationist policies that have destroyed so much of Australia’s industrial base, and have now plunged the world into an economic breakdown crisis. This is no mere Depression, this is a 14th Century-style global collapse.”
