The ABC brings word that the Former deputy chief minister Ted Quinlan has returned, like Cincinnatus from his plow, to run the troubled ACT branch of the ALP.
- Mr Quinlan says he hopes to help the party get through some difficult issues such as the sale of the Labor clubs.
“Well I think it’s just a matter of holding down the position and sorting out a few of the current issues which the party’s quite capable of sorting but just to have someone in the chair promptly who’s got a little bit of background, a little bit of experience to see a couple of the issues sorted out,” he said.
In the longer term Ted says he wants a young thruster in the seat.
