Annette Sheppherd will have plenty of time on her hands now to get those tax returns in!
OK INDEPENDENTS...
You've run a successful campaign, obviously - now it's time to show what a true independent does. Listen to your constituents, and stand up for what you believe in!
I see good times ahead.
How is Val Schier going to fill all of her election promises with only 2 councilors from Cairns 1st?
At the moment Val has about as much power as the Unity Team.
This may have been a big win for Val but with the battle is just beginning. With the mix of Cairns 1st, Unity and independents I say half of Vals proposed polices will never happen.
With so many different views in council and no real set vision know one knows where Cairns will end up.
I only hope the more experienced councilors step up and provide some guidance for the first timers.
Val Schier may have to take a back seat till this council works it self out. Otherwise it will all end in a s&%t fight and nothing will get done!
