Trigger's Broom - an analogy of the NSW ALP

It's good to go back to the good old (almost innocent) days but Trigger's Broom (link in title) is like the NSW ALP. It doesn't matter how many times you change the head or the control stick, it's always the same worn-out old party.

Perhaps, after recent events (the premier's wedding), a new power behind the throne may change things, but don't hold your breath! 

Two changes of premier has not made a zilch of difference.

Dr Jon Jenkins "Debunking Junk Green Science."

Dr Jon Jenkins (see previous post from the Australian) is an adjunct professor of virology specialising in computer modelling at Bond University. He was a former member of the NSW Legislative Council but left after a cancer scare.

His Website (Link in Title) is called "Dedicted to Debunking Green Science."

On this site he points out that he was one of the original "greenies" but 'it causes me great pain to see what started out as a pure motive to care for the environment (was) corrupted and perverted by political ideologues.

(The Greens are well known as watermelons - green on the outside but the greater part is the pink inside - TB.)

His comments on the NSW elections (but equally applies to the Federal elections - John Howard got more votes than Maxine McKew but 7,000 green votes pushed McKew over the line):

Well the election is done and dusted and true to form the majority just blindly did as they were told and voted ALP/Liberal. Green preferences gave government back to the ALP; (and  he prophetically added) there will be a price to pay for that!

He goes on to add that if a pollie does a good job, it goes unreported.

It is a sad but unfortunate facet of democracy that if people don't know about you then they won't vote for you.

Partial Sale of Hurlstone Farm

The cash strapped NSW government, has, in its lack of wisdom, decided to sell off 140 of the farms 160 acres. This would virtually leave only the school section, selling of most of the farm and the Memorial Forest. Hurlstone Farm is a working farm but the sell off would reduce it to just the basic school campus. Contracts for product from the farm will have to be broken.

The Lunatics are running the asylum.

Hornsby Hospital staff to provide own pens

NSW's horror budget has hit Hornsby hospital where staff have been asked to provide their own pens. (Listen to Ray Hadley Link in Title)

In a system where there are 7 administrators to every one medical staff member, I would think that it would be more economic to reduce the administrators and then provide pens so nurses can make notes on patients charts.

You wouldn't write home about it, would you! Well not unless you had a pen.

Backbenchers told to shut up

NSW Labor Party bosses have blasted government backbenchers, telling them to "pull their heads in" and stop bagging the Premier Nathan Rees.

Probably because he is already beibg bagged in every pub and club and dinner party in NSW.
