[Marxism] Australian Labor Party ranks take high ground in privatisation battle

[Ozleft]

The conference of the NSW branch of the Australian Labor Party today 
overwhelmingly rejected the Labor government's proposal to sell off the 
state's electricity network. This is a major victory following a long 
and effective campaign by most trade unions, the Labor Party ranks, the 
Greens and other community organisations.

The battle is not over, as the government has said it will defy the 
conference. Much will defend on a vote of the Labor parliamentary caucus 
on Tuesday.
