The election of progressive independent Clover Moore as Mayor of Sydney City Council has been marked by successive manoeuvres by both Liberal and Labor Parties to keep her out and retain control of the Council which is the jewel in the crown of NSW Municipal electorates.
Clover Moore's unexpected announcement of her nomination as a Mayoral candidate for the re-amalgamated Sydney City Council while retaining her state seat of Bligh mightily upsets both Liberal and Labor Parties.
Clover Moore said, "There is a rejection by the Sydney community of the thuggish sacking of a democratically elected [South Sydney] council and the attempt to install a candidate who moved into our area last September — there's been a real rejection of that".

The Lord Mayor of Sydney, Clover Moore, who has decreed that election posters must be removed from city property, has been accused of "breathtaking hypocrisy" after it emerged she went to court to assert her right to display her own political advertisements.
Cr Moore fought a year-long battle against a former political rival who initiated action in the Land and Environment Court to protest against her power pole advertisements in the 1999 state election.
During the debate, Cr Moore declared in a mayoral minute that she had campaigned since 1999, midway through the court case, for the State Government "to improve the unrealistic and largely unenforceable legislation".

 Politicians being glib - Clover Moore’s contribution « Sachi’s hyperbolic space
She will aim for a 30 per cent reduction in greenhouse gas and an increase in the State’s use of renewable power to 25 per cent by 2020, and is calling for a moratorium on new coal ventures in the interests of climate change.
Seems to me that the only possibility that this might have legs is if either she holds the balance of power or somehow coal is discovered within the Sydney City Council area.
Hey Cameron, I imagine that the only way in which she could have any impact is if there is a minority state govt and her vote is needed, which seems a pretty remote possibility.

 Marxism message, [Marxism] A Preliminary Observation on the NSW Municipal Elect
Clover Moore has established herself in the top end, gentrified areas of Paddington, Elizabeth Bay, Surry Hills, etc, as a representative of a kind of conservative populism, incorporating a certain concern for the residents, but also a political pitch to extremely affluent residents.
Even in the face of Clover Moore's cement truck, in the generally ultra-affluent City of Sydney area, the electoral results, particularly the ALP's 23%, remain a dramatic class map of the City of Sydney.
Peter Boyle's delusional treatment of the Clover Moore cement truck, as some sort of unambiguous shift to the left, flies in the face of current political realities, and also, it flies in the face of the clear class divisions that are so dramatically apparent in the pattern of votes in the City of Sydney elections.

 Australia: Voters register opposition to major parties in local elections
Moore won 43 percent of the vote against Lee’s 23 percent.
The result was a resounding condemnation of the bureaucratic high-handedness for which the Carr government is renowned, as well as a rejection of its big business and cost-cutting policies, which have destroyed thousands of jobs and plunged the state’s public health and transport systems into deep crisis.
Moore is also widely regarded as an opponent of the US-led invasion of Iraq, which she denounced in state parliament in May 2003 as an “unlawful act of aggression.” While condemning the invasion as “morally wrong,” her concerns, like those of the Greens, were essentially tactical and nationalist.
