The NSW election results show that the people of the state have rejected Dominic Perrottet’s scandal-ridden government and voted for a clean start. This will be a huge challenge for the new government, but at least they have a mandate to stop the decline of public hospitals, schools, and TAFE. The main issue that drove the election result was the long-running scandal surrounding ICARE. The new government must also terminate the culture wars that Mike Baird started in 2014 over the future of the Powerhouse Museum. If this referendum passes, it will be a major step towards reconciliation in Australia.
