On federal politics
The daily political motivated misinformation from two-bob conservatives is boring. Falling on deaf ears I might add, give us a break. Senior Citizen, Cairns It was excruciating watching Kevin Rudd address the ALP conference (CP, 19/12). Kevin hated everyone in the room, but they hated him even more. The ALP has devolved into a cesspit of fear and loathing. Pterodactyl Trev, Cairns Warren Mundine’s recent comments on Labor abandoning the working class is incontrovertible. Thanks Warren. Voters please remember this at the next election. Bryan, White Rock National’s president Larry Anthony wants the next National candidate for Mallee to be female. And just like that the Nats are sexually discriminated in the workplace by ruling out half the potential candidates because of their sex. Marjorie, Mooroobool To his credit, ScoMo did not sign us to the UN’s Global Compact on Migration. Why not? Because news of it got out and Aussies pushed back on the ScoMo government. But so far only Sky’s Rowan Dean has broken the news of the UN’s Global Compact on Refugees. Time to push back again, fellow patriots, this one is even worse. Higgs, Tolga moved by diesel-fuelled earthmoving machinery, so thank you, bulldozers and fossil fuels, for saving the turtles. Mic, Cairns Last week at an open council meeting I witnessed a councillor speak against a motion to reduce the speed limit in the city, only to see him vote for it. AJ, Holloways Beach Young fan-girl admits seducing older male movie director (CP, 19/12). Cue outrage from feminists angry at that girl for trading her body for access to that man. (crickets chirping). Peter, Whitfield Wind power “con job” over the last week. I have noticed the wind generators idle during breakfast peak hours. Base load power has to be called on and plays havoc with the system. Mick, Rocky Creek I would like to say a big thank you to Dr Ken Connolly for his 47 years service to Ravenshoe and district. He invested a lot of money building a first-class medical centre in our town, a good example of a decent bloke. I hope you get to enjoy retirement doc and God bless. Maurice Giddings, Ravenshoe Why do we have a funeral announcement for a service in Armidale? For those who don’t know where Armidale is, it’s more than 2500km from here in NSW. Most odd.
