Does the AFS (Australian Fabian Society) now rule the roost?? - 

Via the AFS website:

What makes the Australian Fabians distinctive?

The Australian Fabians are a democratically constituted membership organisation. We provide members with the opportunity to participate in public debate, direct access to our publications and events, and the opportunity to participate fully in the decisions and actions of the organisation.

The Australian Fabians are part of an international social and intellectual movement. The UK Fabian Society been a central part of the democratic socialist, social democratic and Labour tradition since the 20th century in Great Britain.

The Australian Fabians have been active since 1947. The New Zealand Fabianshas more recently become part of this tradition.

Because political ideas matter

Over the years, the Australian Fabians has looked to the Australian Labor Party as a Party through which social democratic principles and values can be achieved. Our relationship with Australian Labor governments is that of a ‘critical friend’. We are neither ‘on-’ nor ‘off-message’. Some of what we do may be congruent with government thinking; some not.

Good government needs new ideas and public debate. The Australian Fabians ask difficult questions – and, if necessary, propose difficult answers. Our constitution and history demand this of us. Our independence of mind is fiercely guarded.

The Australian Fabians is an independent organisation. The Australian Fabians Inc. (also known as the Australian Fabian Society) is a Not-for-profit association incorporated in Victoria, Australia.

Hmm...now refer to this AFS regular publication and note the individual article authors...
