The party’s left wing is fully on board, but rank-and-file members fear they’ll be sidelined due to the motions being pushed to the last-minute agenda before the March election. Meanwhile, the Premier is set to unveil a major $15-year train manufacturing plan for the Hunter region — a union-friendly pledge that may get drowned out by the protest debate. Critics also point to a flawed report on party priorities, with grassroots groups demanding more attention to Palestine and Aukus. And amid all this, Inner West’s mayor is pushing to tackle poker machine harm — turning this conference into a fiery clash of priorities.
