In case some people are unaware, I am opposed to
party politics. I am just as annoyed at our state
government gagging comment on the supplementary
Environmental Impact Statement, on the Traveston
dam. As I am about the lies being told about the
proposed Liberal/National amalgamation.
 
A “new” party that starts life based on falsehoods is
doomed to failure. Contrary to the comments of Mr
McArdle “this is ringing endorsement” and Mr Truss
“Both memberships have voted overwhelmingly in
favour of the merger”. Based on their own figures
more than 50% of their membership either
abstained or opposed the idea of a merger.
 
I find such “euphemisms or misrepresentation” from
our political leaders despicable. Still if you tell a lie
often enough, in today’s political world it becomes
the TRUTH!!!
 
The real question here is Where did we go wrong?
We elect them, we pay them and some of us
pound the streets for them. You’d think the people
deserved the TRUTH.
