There are the few 'voices in the wilderness' calling for accountability and reform but they might just as well be pissing in the wind. It's going to take a cataclysmic event before the majority of voters here stop being complacent. We came close with Yasi but were lucky enough to dodge the bullet.<br />The power brokers like MO'D get where they are by stealth and lack of interest by the rank and file. Believe me, no one actually wants to take office but some, once they are there, find the power and opportunities too hard to resist.<br />I hope the Queensland party can deliver the goods...but then voters have to give them the chance to do so. If nothing else, they should aim to be watchdogs with a ferocious bite!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7878592054777492431.post-81798526673810255282011-02-20T00:25:11.023+10:002011-02-20T00:25:11.023+10:00Freebody couldn't be any worse than the useles...Freebody couldn't be any worse than the useless Desley Boyle that's supposedly been doing this job for the last 12 years, could he?<br />Answer - no way.<br />I mean, name one, just one, major achievement for the people of Cairns that Desley, the overpaid public money $ucker has done.<br />Long pause ...<br />NOTHING.<br />There you are .... zilch.<br />Bring back KB - let's get this town moving again!<br />Just imagine ...<br />Freebody initiating and funding development projects, KB approving them, aka 2006/07.<br />Cairns will be rolling again.<br />Jobs for our children.<br />No need for them to head off to BrisVegas to find work.<br />Think carefully voters, think carefully.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16962823904048335617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7878592054777492431.post-13385487946709488802011-02-19T23:45:38.361+10:002011-02-19T23:45:38.361+10:00Hence, The Queensland Party...Hence, The Queensland Party...Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04454389661364179705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7878592054777492431.post-33496188908346362232011-02-19T21:56:12.265+10:002011-02-19T21:56:12.265+10:00Bryan I'm happy to show you all the media rele...Bryan I'm happy to show you all the media releases etc that we have put out put out day after day.
