Election Wrap - 6 October

Funny – I thought Bill Stefaniak wasn’t contesting this election.

He isn’t. I taped an interview with Bill just recently for CanberraVotes:

I am also hoping that the Assembly Speaker – Wayne Berry will also agree to be interviewed in a similar manner.

Unrelated to today’s news, I received a flyer today advocating the election of Andrea Tokaji (Lib for Ginnninderra).

An A4 flyer folded into three, and on the back it says:

Vote 1 Andrea Tokaji
then for my colleagues
in the order of your choice:
Bill Stefaniak
Vicki Dunne
Jacqui Myers
Matthew Watts

Funny – I thought Bill Stefaniak wasn’t contesting this election.

Someone must not have told the Libs…

Someone with as much arrogance as Mulcahy doesn’t need to do hard word, he just needs to assert aggressively that he’s smarter than everyone else and he can somehow massively cut taxes and make the books balance without explaining how it would ever add up.

He will go down to the bottom with barely a splash

Jakez, I think that the ‘clear cut numbers’ Richard is working on these days is how to get elected with less than 2% of the vote…

Although I approve of the principles of the Canberra Party tax policy, it has to be said that a two page policy document of principles and not clear cut numbers is something that you’d expect from the LDP, not a Party with an MLA and paid staff.

Mulcahy was shadow treasurer in the Libs and has been on his own for a year.

WHAT THE HELL HAS HE BEEN DOING?

Could Hargreaves be feeling a bit ‘stung’ by Norvan’s ad that ticks off the govt about the three Rs – roads, rates and rubbish? Two stories about rubbish over one weekend!

If they are truly worried about overflowing bins causing rubbish to end up in the ‘Bidgee, **lightbulb** how about putting in more bins, not less? – and, um, why not make them metal bins that don’t melt. Duh.

John Hargreaves thinks we are all stupid. He comes up with any stupid reason for doing something, and then thinks we’ll all agree with it.

EG – Taking away the bins will mean we all take our rubbish home.

Leaving dead kangaroos by the road will make us all drive more carefully.

Pay parking will make us all catch the bus.

And the wierdest one:
Well off residents of Griffith should be happy to have their heritage hedges ripped out, cos the govt has granted pensioners free bus travel.

… John Hargreaves is defending ripping the bins out of the Murrumbidgee leisure spots because it will encourage people to take their rubbish home with them.

What a load of rubbish!

*haha*
