...just look at what public pressure over Uber has done for the Taxi industry
You have to be on the right side of public pressure though. Taxis have a reputation of being a horrific service that is over priced. The general public want Uber and the demise of taxis is their monopolistic chickens coming home to roost.
Before we move we have to make sure we are on he right side of the narrative. We want hard working Aussies. Find people with red dirt under their finger nails. A good human interest story. As much as a lot of the people (like Dick) are fighting the good fight, I would say we want to avoid the rich private "fly boys" being the front and centre story. Look at what has caused the most headaches so far in the election campaign, a guy on benefits trying to treat his kids, a single mum trying to educate her kids, and the panama papers. We have two Aussie battlers who get the electorates sympathy (and whatever you now think of the "Q&A hero", he obviously had the public's sympathy at first, which is why The Australian ran so hard at him) and we have a story about a rich guy doing potentially dodgy rich things. We want to frame ourselves in that first group, not the second.
So as I said, find an honest, hard working, Aussie, preferably a mum or dad, preferably a self made man or woman, maybe even if we can hit the jackpot something in their family history like parents or grandparents being immigrants. Get them in front of cameras. The message will get better traction that way.
Lest we have another incident where a silver haired A380 captain takes 60 minutes out on his yacht in the middle of a pilots strike.
Edit: Additionally, don't dismiss parties you don't like. For many of you that will be the Greens, for some the ALA, others Lambie or whatever. You may not like their politics but minor parties WILL be getting in this election, and whatever BS pledges the Tele is making Turnbull and Shorten sign up to now, the majors WILL work with them. That is how our system works. The Greens and Nick X WILL be getting multiple seats across both houses of parliament, Lambie, ALA, LDP, Family First, KAP, all have decent enough chance of getting a gurnsey. Create dialog with them. Even if you don't like their other policies even pinko tree hugging greens or old racist right wing nutters in the ALA (my attempt at bipartisan bias :P) can see Part 61 is a cluster F. Work with them to see that.
