Need a new line of attack. Pollution is the best. Very hard to argue for lung disease and premature deaths.

Herald Sun reporting on a positive Melbourne story? Amazing.
I wonder if anyone could do a % of their stories, negative vs positive on Melbourne or state government. Then do a timeline over the last 25 years, or maybe the 27 since Bracks?

No, it’s on my list. I was being terribly lazy (time-poor teacher) and assuming her acumen, considering her surname. Lovely to hear.
I’ve been a fan of David long before he left the pitch. Great decision making on the ball too.

Some commentary fixates on strippers and golden showers, but it’s the same as ever: follow the money.

The politician who complained ‘there’s just too much government in my life’. And yet he’s still there, taking the governments’ pay packages, kindly funded by us.

Very weak oratory. No pause, no confidence; like a grad teacher who hasn’t the nerve yet to stand their ground and wait for quiet.
shame. A strong LNP might have pushed Albo to ban gambling ads but he feels he can capitulate to vested interests because he has no competition. 1 party, no democracy.
