On Saturday night newly re-elected Prime Minister Scott Morrison said the “quiet Australians” had won a great victory.
“It has been those Australians who have worked hard every day,” he said.
For the first time in my life I nearly cried at an Australian politician’s speech. You see, my parents are quiet Australians.
My father worked for 40 years as a truck driver, three shifts a day, 6 days a week, one that started at 1am. Mum tells a story from before I was born where they found Dad asleep on someone’s doorstep during a milk run, because he was doing that and two other jobs including driving a taxi.

Today my faith in Australians is restored. I hope my Labor friends — I have many in inner-city Sydney — will come to understand too that the “kindness” of Labor is actually unintended cruelty. Especially to those that work hard, pay their taxes and expect the government to be responsible with what is their hard-earned money.
And until Labor recognises that hitting the lower middle-class with higher taxes, more levies and no incentives to save or invest is akin to biting the hand that feeds them, they will continue in the political wilderness. The middle class is the engine room that makes this country lucky, punishing them is not only nasty it is nonsensical.
So this week is the first week the loud know what the quiet really think. I wish for many more days like this and less silence in this bright future from all of us quiet Australians.
