The adage that “Opposition don’t win, but Government loses them” is certainly poignant in this case.

And with that said, Wakeham has no credence in taking any sensible credit for winning the byelection. But he will.

Arrogance and tone deaf behaviour from the Liberals is certainly not new a new behaviour after many years of government. There is enough history of previous Administration’s to see where this is heading.

Also evident in the mix is that the Liberals are yyt heavy in meaningful Cabinet members that shape Government’s direction or perceived direction. Strong Cabinet representation between the Avalon and Port Aux Basques is woeful and rural constituencies are taking note.

Maybe a new Premier’s Office in Springdale will stop the next byelection bleed?

Reactive policy is now systemic and a shift towards proactive policy is needed.
