Labor could've done much better in Leichhardt. Unfortunately, they have a long way to go before they can start gloating about winning back Barron River and Cairns at the next state election.

It was an outright business deal between an American corporatist and a leader of an Australian political party. The corporatist delivered services to the leader of the political party in return for a firesale of Australia's national telecommunications assets. The voters of Australia were kept fully distracted by irrelevant issues of personalities as they were conned into selling off more of their national assets. rubynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3182703408922632531.post-50530378334457075582013-09-09T13:19:11.283+10:002013-09-09T13:19:11.283+10:00Anonymous 10:05 is correct - sucking up to the ant...Anonymous 10:05 is correct - sucking up to the anti-traditional hunting turtle and dugong nutjobs like colwhocares cost Entsch big time.

Not smart to blame your leader especially as Entsch is bragging to anyone who will listen that he will be a Minister. Billy Gordon was a credible candidate which also was part of the story but Entsch's dog whistling on Turtles and Dugong is the main reason why Indigenous communities have deserted him.
