Ambassador Stanhope tackles Palestine

One minute our MLA’s are trying to tell us the poor dears are over worked and they need more MLA’s elected to spread their workload and then they are telling us they are invited to take a few hours off to listen to this wanker. Any MLA signing up for this loses my vote immediately, concentrate on local issues guys.

Makes sense. The only real support Stanhope has left is the rusted on left, so throwing them a few ideological cues won’t cost him anything.

(Does he REALLY have serious ambassadorial ambitions?)

I would prefer that these people keep their noses out of affairs that affect the rest of the planet.

They simply are not qualified – remember that to get their job, they won a popularity contest, and therefore should be considered as unskilled workers, not unlike Miss America.

I reckon there’s some useful things Miss America could do for me that Stanhope couldn’t…

Er….

Its just another lobby/interest group… but Stanhope shaking hands with the Palestinian Authroity is going to piss of a few people (at the very least it should cause some fireworks and make his life harder, like he has done for many residents of the ACT)
