Queensland Election - It’s time!

Tue, 24 Feb 2009 00:00:00 +1000

So it’s time for Election ‘09! ALP v NLP. Bligh v Springborg. The electors of Queensland, sick of the tired Labor government will do the only thing it can. Re-elect Anna Bligh.

Does that sound a little strange to you? Well it should.

You see I have always been a staunch conservative when it comes to my politics. I have voted Liberal federally every election since I turned 18 - except the last election. I just had to vote for Kevin Rudd. Was it my politics that had changed? No, I felt the government was tired. We needed change.

Christmas decorations are a waste of public money

The Brisbane City Council is under fire for not spending enough on Christmas decorations. Unlike some, I think this is great.

Some people think it is all about promoting ourselves to tourists. Some think the council has been down to Crazy Clarks.
