DEAR News Of The Area,
A letter to NOTA dated 25 April requires a response.
Perhaps Dave Williamson, in hindsight, a tax on a cow farting would have been better than a tax on innocent citizens by way of a thing called Robodebt.
The remainder of Dave’s assertions appear to be groundless, ideological annotations as opposed to rational commentary.
Dave’s statement that “many have had a gutful” is correct, hence the growing support for “independents”.
His derisive commentary on Climate 200 and Simon Holmes à Court in particular, give cause for me to challenge readers to watch Holmes à Court at the National Press Club on ABC iView as previous contributors have also recommended.
His address is enlightening and his interaction with the press gallery articulate.
Shane Grant makes similar misguided commentary as to funding for Caz Heise.
Her funding details are readily accessible and offer clear insight as opposed to your misguided speculation.
Further, how can any candidate make a rationed and valued decision as to who they would align themselves with until they know the final makeup of Parliament (even the Nationals and Liberals wait until after the election to negotiate their cozy inter-party agreement, details of which are kept secret). Why single Caz Heise out?
Leave her to act as a true Independent, able and willing to vote according to her community’s wishes after reading legislation, not as directed by a party system.
Caz Heise and Simon Holmes à Court readily offer explanations of their funding unlike the major parties and organisations such as the Cormack Foundation.
Dutton and Albanese’s recent marriage of convenience to pass a contemptuous electoral reform bill aimed at disadvantaging independents should be condemned.
Vote however you wish but let the playing field be fair.
Regards,
Bob CAMERON,
Coffs Harbour.
