Dirty sexy NSW Labor

I saw that whippersnapper from the NSW Property Council on the telly yesterday suggesting that the Wollongong development scandal wouldn't happen under the planning "reform" measures being proposed by his mates in the Iemma government.
As if this has anything to do with local government and nothing to do with the fact that its a Labor dominated Council (like Liverpool)! That 'startled rabbit' look from Premier Iemma is beginning to look quite normal as he answers questions about his ministers behaviour, about his administration's employment of Labor mates or about his new found comittment to "do something" about developers donations to political parties.
I hope that no one is fooled by these attempts to make local government look like it has a corruption problem

Sorry

At last.
We have a Prime Minister and parliament capable of leadership.
Thank you to all who have worked towards this momentous occasion in Australia's history. Thank you to the Aboriginal people for your grace, patience and generosity.
I hope this is the beginning of a comprehensive response to the Bringing them Home report Recommendations
