Al Grassby statue in Civic

Aren’t there other ‘reputable’ people from Griffith of Grassby’s ilk that he would also like to commemorate?

Does Sonic actually give a rat’s what other people think? Why not bang one up there for Keith Wright or Andrew Theophanos. I guess they got caught didn’t they.

Grassby was a crook, it didn’t take a charge to prove that

I find the concept of a statue of this creature to be totally abhorrent.

Would Sonic care to ask Barbara Mackay (widow of the late Donald Mackay) of her reaction to this proposal?

Once again, Sonic has a loser mate he wants ratepayers to finance.

Ari – great concept, wonder if anyone has/is developing a cab sub to have a ‘walk of shame’ in city walk for such pond dwellers as the one in question here?

I was thinking new zealand, but AJ and JL are equally as good options.

“what about j howard rogering a map of australia up the arse.”

Australia’s arse would be represented by Alan Jones or John Laws?

A statue of Mal Colston could keep Al company.

I suggest Grassby be accompanied by a statue of Al-Hilali … put them alongside the porno sheep.

Can someone hear an echo?

Surely the issue, whether a crook or not (I think more likely that he was) is that we shouldn’t be spending all that money on a statue when we are closing shopfronts, reducing service levels, and making cuts to just about every area of government in Canberra?

given the AFP high command’s gutless record when it comes to politicians I think we can safely assume any number of crooks have been through the parliament.

the ongoing refusal to create a federal anti-corruption body frankly leaves them all open to the charge IMHO.

by the sounds of things this guy probably did more good than bad.

From memory, nothing was ever proved against Grassby. Still, innocent until proven guilty doesn’t always seem to stick in some people’s memory.

I’m just wondering how you’d be able to reflect the bloke’s dress sense in a statue. Presumably it’d need a fresh coat of paint once a day?

How do you make a statue of a pissed, crooked arsehole look life like?

love it!

Think of all the eggs and cake mix you could buy….hell you could even splurge on a dozen new electric beaters !!!

Al Grassby?? Any other crooks they wanna throw a statue up for….Anu Singh, Eastman?

God almighty, does Standope ever think ?
