	Paul Keating
		Paul John Keating (born January 18, 1944) was the twenty-fourth Prime Minister of Australia, from 1991 to 1996.
		He led the Labor party to an unexpected election victory in 1993, where it is generally agreed that the attack he led on the Liberal Party's economic policies (including the electoral poison of a new value-added tax) was decisive.
		These issues, which came to be known as Keating's "big picture" approach, were highly popular with the tertiary-educated middle class, but failed to capture the aspirations of rural and outer-suburban voters who swung to the Liberal Party in the 1996 election.

		Paul Keating was sworn in as Prime Minister on 20 December 1991.
		Keating was a driving force in getting agreement to regular meetings of the heads of government of member countries — a key to building APEC into a body guiding the overall development of free trade and practical economic cooperation in the region.
		Although Keating had pursued his grand vision towards recognition of the rights of Indigenous people and towards an Australian republic after he won the 1993 election, his second term was marred with problems in his ministry as well as the ongoing ‘fallout’ of the process of deregulating the economy.

	The Paul Keating we have to have (again) - Opinion - theage.com.au
		What has been forgotten by Howard, the Labor Party and the political pundits is Paul Keating's greatest legacy: his ability as a person and a political leader to remove the ceiling of opportunity for the lower and middle classes, and in doing so build a nation rather than just an economy.
		According to Keating: "There is now no glowing light." Further, in an opinion piece written in Britain's Guardian newspaper on May 4, Keating opined that "people cannot have the wealth and the jobs while at the same time laying waste to the human spirit".
		Winston Churchill, a leader whom Keating admires, was in his mid-60s when he returned from political oblivion to become British prime minister in 1940 to lead the battle against Hitler in World War II (and then later returned to become prime minister a second time in his mid-70s).

		KEATING: Yeah, well that's the small "d" democrat in me. In a democracy, you've got to let the public decide to have a change, and while they've got every right to have a change, that doesn't necessarily mean to say that they get better.
		KEATING: Well, I don't believe in heroes, but the nearest one that ever came to me, and interesting for a labour inclined person was a British conservative politician, Churchill.
		KEATING: Yeah I think so, that this generation is a generation that hasn't faced war and that has the bounty of the economic rebirth of Australia.

	Labour market reform and Paul Keating
		Keating claims that Howard’s attempt to reform labour markets “from 1979 to 1982” generated a “wage explosion, leading to 11 per cent inflation along with massive industrial disputation”.

		Keating boasts that it was the labour government that brought down unemployment.

		I recall Paul telling me some time ago that Don Watson for example was a wonderful; speech writer, and in fact so good, Paul said, that on his best days it was very difficult to distinguish between something that Don had written for Paul, from something Paul had written himself.

	PM's 'burnt our soul' says Keating - Books - Entertainment - smh.com.au
		Mr Keating today used the launch of a new book by journalist George Megalogenis in Sydney to attack the prime minister for turning "our sense of fairness and egalitarianism on its head".
		Mr Keating said he agreed with the first part of the assertion - but not the second, saying Mr Howard had "sinned mightily" and was working to change the nation's traditional mindset.
		But Mr Keating disagreed, saying Mr Howard and his Liberal government were thriving on the success of the Labor Party's economic reform.

	Policy Summer (Dec-Feb) 1998-99
		Typically, Keating's one-liners were reserved for members of the 'other' party (the Liberal-National Party coalition), and occasionally for that party as a whole.
		It may have been Keating's view that the federalist basis of the Australian Senate is inappropriate in some way, or that federalism itself is an unfortunate political structure (indeed, this clearly was Keating's view).
		The ALP government then proceeded – with a due demonstration of reluctance (of which Keating's quip is an example) – to negotiate with the Democrats and Greens, to ensure the passage of the Budget through the Senate without further delay.
