We're moving forward....

Well that's what our new Prime Minister tells us, I guess we can all forget the train wreck of the last government and focus on a bright and fabulously wonderful future with our new team.... Not the dream team we were promised at last election, but a moving forward team.

One of the things I've never really got about moving forward, is why is it always good to move forward? For example, if I've parked my car facing towards the edge of a very high cliff.... is it still a good idea to move forward, rather than stay still or go backwards.

If we move forward, do we get a better deal, and better governance? Or is it just possible we get the same deal? New packaging, new slogan.... moving forward.

What do we do when we move forward? Now that the dream team have tackled all the hard issues like, climate change, whaling in the Southern Oceans, giving each kid a lap top in an education revolution and of course my absolute favorite the National Broadband Network, which has been rolled out to give us international standard access to broadband. What do we do when we move forward?

I ponder sometimes the alternatives to moving forward. Sadly there are none unless you like middle aged men, trying to prove they are some kind of action hero running around in tiny little bathing costumes. Oh well... At the end of the day, I'll guess we'll just have to move forward.
