Jon Stanhope, Friends of the Pinnacle (FOTPIN), Hawker Shops Redevelopment

Shanghai, May 2010
They complain on prolific fevour of exotic weeds, Pinnacle, but deny they themselves are a plague.

They like maths.
Mathematics is pure.
FOTPIN loves "purity"

They ascribe that purity to interest calculations.

Jon sees not.
He presumes.
He fails.

Sexual festivity Mr. Stanhope supports.
Celebration!
He sanctioned a big roo cull, Pinnacle et al.
He couldn’t lump that one on the “exotic infestation” story.

Jon Stanhope, ACT Chief Minister
They buried tonnes of meat in land fill. Couldn’t pack it for impoverished aborigines or the poor. Something to do with economics we’re told.

Meanwhile their hoofed English imports continue to ravage the fragile topsoils --in an insistence on “traditional” fare. Exotics?

Stanhope spent many thousands on his 2010 visit to China.

He proclaimed last week, in a drive for increased population,
“who wouldn’t want to live in Canberra –strongest economy in Australia”

Jon what comes into Canberra and what flows out? Should it continue to grow?

How would Canberra’s public “service” be if they stopped draining the rest of the country with their excesses? http://timezombie.blogspot.com/2010/08/kate-lundy.html

Would you prefer to practice restraint and try the word ‘enough’ --or follow Gillard and the rest of the world, seducing the masses with more giveaways and platitudes, more bread and circuses --“the economy” before health of a planet we could be enjoying sober tenure over.

Possibly you could try outlawing the ‘baby bonus’ handout here in the territory!
Not likely to be a big vote catcher.
Maybe try peppering it with education on gene worship, heraldic delusion / misty-eyed sentimentality.

Either way you could choose to go down in history as a speaker of truth in the face of dipstick outrage or, as with Shanghai, more of the same.
