Haven't seen much in the way of interest or support by any of these candidates on Northern Beaches issues, especially environmental concerns. There is at least three and half thousand votes just in Clifton Beach and Palm Cove alone, for anyone willing to try and make a difference. The unprecedented vegetation clearing in Argentea (ironically marketed as "an environmentally sensitive development" and Frost estates at Kewarra coupled with interference by these developers in the creek systems on the beaches might be a good place to start! As yet no takers.......and climate change rolls on…….

Now , now boys, play nice !!
Slagging each other off is counter productive in the lead up to the election, put your energies into helping whichever party you feel most attuned with.
Plenty of helpers needed to hammer in 50,000 coreflutes to litter our roadways !

I think 'Bryan Outlaw' has convinced us all of his incredible maturity and intelligence in this and past posts. At least the real Mr Law supports his beliefs with actions (and I note puts his name on submitted comments).

Yo right back at ya Outlaw, baby.

The insane wackjobs are in Cabinet. Haven't you noticed? (I suppose your staff forgot to tell you).

You don't keep up with the news do you? The High Court ruled just last month that prisoners with less than 3 years to serve get a vote, because they are materially affected by the outcome.

Goodbye Johnny!

Yo, Bryan!

Haven't you "checked in" to the Greybar hotel yet? I don't think cons are allowed to vote.

Too bad for you the insane wackjobs aren't running a candidate this year.

This election is a truly marvellous opportunity for the nation to rise up as one and sing “Goodbye Johnny”. After that, things get seriously ugly.

Q/ How many Rudds does it take to change a lightbulb?

A/ Kevin Rudd never changes anything!

I’m voting Greens no 1, followed by Liberal last, National second last, and Labour in front of any Nazis. Jim Turnour wins the effective preference.

I disagree with my friend above about Jim. I’ve noticed in the last three years that Jim’s worked hard at improving his profile and delivery, and at his community based networks.

From a Green point of view, Peter Garret as Minister for the Environment has GOT to be a better prospect than Malcolm Turnbull, and a better hope than our illustrious Queensland government. A Green Senator in Queensland gives an office and a full-time staff to enhance green networks and campaigning.

It makes me wish the Far North Greens had their heart in campaigning.

It has yet to be confirmed that "Charlie McKillop" is actually a girl. He/she's got the TV vote locked up, however - inherited directly from Warren "I used to be married" Entsch. We've also got Alfred E. Newman for the Labor party and a used car salesman for the Nationals.

It's a shame that Leichhardt can't attract one candidate that can string two sentences together. Taken with our state group of legislators, clearly the the border with the "Smart State" ends somewhere south of Gordonvale.
