For many years I have had a "No Advertising Material" sign on my letter box. However, large amounts of glossy material has made its way into said box over the last few weeks. So I have added yet another sign - a very large, white-n- black "No Junk Mail". This has stopped the catalogues and other advertising material until..................
The Federal Election was called!!!
So now I am back to receiving so called election material. The letterbox is filling with "Meet my Federal (and State) member", electoral role info addressed to the "Voter" and other stuff.
The radio is filled with comments by Julia, Tony & Bob, plus comments on the comments from endless political commentators.
But its winter and cold enough for me to enjoy some of the speeches and promises. I have been around long enough to know that interest rates are controlled by the Reserve Bank, not Tony. I have met and worked with enough migrants to know Migration is a thorny issue and won't be solved in a day, in spite of Julia's speech mentioning Timor. The migrants, whether boat people or not, are people who deserve to be treated humanely but numbers must be controlled in some way.
Could someone please promise, and more importantly deliver, on pricing carbon in a climate change policy, good transport infrastructure and lower house prices.
Please, Please, Please!!!
