Could that be an influence on
Kevin Rudd if he gets into power?

G'day Sandy,
Thank you for your question.
He is a lobbyist who has spoken positively about uranium mining at an industry conference.

It is not the policies of Greg Rudd but the inexperience of his brother that worries me. So far, he has said little beyond cliches about how he would run the government.
Regards

I am so sick of this nonsense. What difference does it make what Rudd's brother or any other member of Rudd's or anyone else's family does. Tim Costello is the Chief Executive of World Vision Australia - does that make Peter Costello a bleeding heart socialist? I don't think so!!
If you want to start pointing fingers you need to be careful and have a good look at all the business dealings and associations of actual members of the Liberal front bench. I think you will find some things there that will knock your socks off.
Lets talk about the real issues and stop the muckraking. Please!!

This is a little old though I doubt much has changed in this arena as to the nature of Greg Rudd's business ( http://www.opendoorconsulting.com.au )
From The Age 20th March 2007 (See link below)
"Greg Rudd, a former political adviser who is the managing-director of Open Door Consulting, said he had no current clients with any interest in the uranium industry."

Sandy, Who gives a Pip about his Brother. We are looking at KEVIN RUDD as next PM last time I looked. If You want to Pick on Brothers, Have a look how Howard pulled his Brother out of the mire when his business went Bust. It went against all ethics and rules. Please get your facts in perspective. If you are going to Hit one, expect it from the other.
Crem, You are sitting on both sides of the fence.

Howard has a nephew in the mining business, which is one reason why he won't budge on climate change.

If it is he should do OK because Howard has just sold a huge amount to Russia.
