	Lateline - 16/08/2004: Beazley calls for Scrafton to face senate inquiry
		KIM BEAZLEY: Well, it is a very serious offence under the ministerial code of conduct to mislead the Australian public intentionally.
		KIM BEAZLEY: Not from any conversation with Mr Scrafton, nor from any conversation with somebody whom, to my knowledge, knew Mr Scrafton well, but it seemed to be me there were lots of rumours and innuendos of a reasonably well-founded character that were floating around at the time, but only just that, floating around.
		KIM BEAZLEY: On 7 November, the chief of the air staff and acting chief of the defence forces reports to Reith the full facts of the matter Immediately after that, Reith, having contacted Howard and saying to Howard, "You ought to talk to Mike Scrafton for a piece of information."

	Kim Beazley, Leader of the Opposition
		Kim Beazley: Well, look, I think what we have to prove over the course of the next three years is that we're ready for government and that change is necessary.
		Kim Beazley: If we had known that there were not weapons of mass destruction there, that there was not a connection between Saddam Hussein and international terrorism, we might have thought long and hard.
		Kim Beazley: We've had many promises that we've put to the Australian people at election time, which, when the election is concluded, we have said it was a good argument about that.

		Kim Beazley’s proposed rollback of the unfair dismissal laws is akin to taking a cudgel to small business.

		Beazley’s so-called plan for workers and small business is a plan to tie small business in judicial red tape and lock job seekers out of the job market.

	Interview: Kim Beazley
		KIM BEAZLEY: One of the things, however, that I have said since I've assumed the position of Opposition Leader — one of the things I have to make sure I do this time is I sharpen the differences between ourselves and the Government.

		KIM BEAZLEY: No, it wouldn't be better for Federal Labor if that happened, but more to the point, it would not be good for the West Australian people or the people of any other state if that happened.

	Letter: Kim Beazley - look at the record - March 10, 2001
		Kim Beazley in his January National Press Club address, amongst other matters, "affirmed Labor's faith in government rather than the market and was repositioning Labor closer to its heart".
		Beazley was then moved from his beloved Defence Department, which then was the most top heavy Department of armed services in the world, to the Employment Department, by Keating, for supporting Hawke in the leadership battle.
		Kim may now be visiting rural and regional Australia and showing concern at their plight, but to me it's like the arsonist returning to the scene of the fire.

		In short, the only chance Kim Beazley has of becoming PM is if he runs against Peter Costello, and the only chance Costello has of becoming Liberal leader if the bus that John Howard falls under also takes out the entire Liberal frontbench.

		The Beazley legacy to Defence was the trouble-plagued Collins Class submarine, a project that was years behind schedule and will cost Australian taxpayers a billion dollars and more to fix.

		Beazley's solution to the political muddle he's got himself into over the anti-terror laws is to rush them through Federal Parliament and then go to the next election (in two years' time) with a clear alternative for the electorate.
		Under Beazley's plan, the ALP would stand in 2007 as a party that cannot see the value of opposing these laws on principle, that cannot stomach a fight when the numbers are against it.
		Beazley's is the kind of super-sophisticated, double-think strategy that only makes sense in a world where you actually don't believe in anything.

	Fixing Australia: Kim Beazley and the Georgiou Bills
		"Beazley has clearly given evidence that he's more happy for a "me too" position on mandatory detention because of his fears that this atrocious policy, a creation by the ALP, comes unstuck, than that he cares to undo a very deep, very serious, and and ongoing human rights crisis in Australia.
		I note that Kim Beazley and John Howard are not going to allow a conscience vote on asylum seeker amendments.
		So while Beazley could've held off giving final endorsement until he'd seen the detail, there was plenty of room for him to signal a different approach and what's more, take a lead on the issue.

	CANBERRA OBSERVED: Kim Beazley's return masks Labor's divisions over US - 31 July 2004
		Kim Beazley's return to the Labor frontbench surprised everybody from Prime Minister John Howard to the hard-line anti-American left of the Labor Party.
		Beazley certainly has good credentials in Washington and his elevation was welcomed by US ambassador to Australia, Tom Schieffer, but Latham is still the leader and the US has not forgotten his over-the-top comments about George Bush.
		The return of Kim Beazley is certainly a welcome move by Labor, but it is still far from clear which faction will emerge on top in the foreign affairs debate.

		Mr Beazley has done what he was elected to do: he steadied and restored Labor after the disastrous Latham experiment.
