What we need is a conservatism that is not simply a cover for rightwing politics or neoliberal interests.
The election of Kevin Rudd as leader of the Australian Labor Party offers hope that the ALP will at least be able to articulate conservative values, particularly the value of people and community.
Rudd himself had a very financially poor upbringing and is able to attack Howard and the Liberals from (what I see as) a conservative position.
Although I have some doubts about what these words actually mean.
