Mr Landeryou
You are so full of hate and rage. Just like in Star Wars, and like Malcolm Fraser people sometimes come back from the dark side. The LEFT the great force of light that encompases everything that a person would consider compassionate caring and human can be yours if you only let go of your rage and raise your head to light of truth. The dark side I realise is tantelising with power and lust but the RIGHT is always doomed to fail - torn apart by its own greed or destroyed by its relentless hatred. The LEFT however will always prevail as the imutable glimer of hope and good in peoples hearts. Remember brother all our great religious prophets and saviors were socialists. In Peace.
Dear Andrew,
Spot on. You are indeed a patriot.
However you have missed a target, they not only have fixtures and fitting in their Cuban departments, they do occassionally add to the leftoid bric a brac, have a look at the two recent SBS commerce escapees into the movie review slot.
The female blonde Yoda, who might be related to Peter Costello genetically but obviously not politically and her irrelevant cats paw side kick.
They even get recognised for their dancing Communist can can at Cannes.
Good call Andy. It doesn't matter what they do with the board, a pig with lipstick on is still a pig.
Time to kill? I hear Kelvin Thomson has a contract out on fat tony for destroying his front bench ambitions in a Rudderless government
Greens anti-nuclear Bill defeated in Tas
The defeat of a Bill to ban uranium mining and nuclear power generation in Tasmania leaves the state open to a nuclear future, the Tasmanian Greens say.
The Greens introduced the Uranium Mining and Nuclear Facilities (Prohibitions) Bill 2006 in the lower house of the Tasmanian parliament on Wednesday afternoon.
But Labor and Liberal MPs combined to defeat the Bill, which Greens deputy leader Nick McKim said would have banned nuclear reactors, and uranium mining and enrichment in Tasmania.
Mr McKim accused Premier Paul Lennon of hypocrisy for saying he did not support nuclear power generation but supporting further uranium exploration through the defeat of the Bill.
"If Paul Lennon is genuinely opposed to nuclear generation in Tasmania, he would have supported our Bill today," Mr McKim said in a statement.
"Mr Lennon is effectively saying that nuclear power is too dangerous for Tasmania, but it is OK for our uranium to be used to put other communities at risk. What hypocrisy."
A spokesman from Mr Lennon's office said earlier today that state exploration in the late 1950s had indicated that minor uranium deposits were secondary and fracture-filled.
"Under existing legislation, there is nothing to prevent exploration for uranium," he said.
"However, if feasibility studies found uranium mining to be economically feasible, the proponent would have to go through all the usual environmental, planning and development processes."

"One other time to privately meet with Madam Virginia Trioli to inquire of her whether her family political and business affiliations were causing a conflict of interests which she needed to disclose to her superiors."
Please elaborate - sounds delicious.
Is there any evidence that uranium might be found in Tasmania? If there is it's been a well kept secret evidently known to the Greens.Still I suppose there's always a slim chance of finding some,probably an even greater ghance than finding any evidence of intelligent life on that sad little island.
Right as usual Andrew. I was once summoned to the Melbourne ABC studio to be interviewed by the gorgeous ViTrioli. As I sat waiting my turn, she was interviewing a (then-Kennett) government minister. I was in a position to hear both the interview (over the waiting-room tannoy) and the loud and obscene vituperation continually directed at the minister by ViTri's production staff. (The minister himself could neither see nor hear them.) What a pack of children, bravely insulting someone behind his back. They must have felt very big, talking it over that night in the John Curtin.
