The ABC won't come here ( even though its a marginal seat ) and there is plain disrespect coming from the cities over many things happening here .Epstein had a session in Torquay where the biggest job growth seems to be -- over 400 people are required to run the Shire ( How many outside staff?).
Where the Labor candidate , not only works but is guaranteed her job back there - on Council Not democracy as our forefathers saw it .
"The simple matter of getting to know candidates NOT The parties waste millions and yet we can't even interview the candidates without the risk of some party hack putting the shitters on our broadcasters .Its happened here !
Heard yesterday on the Hustings that Geelong people got to hear the candidates debate at Torquay/ Ocean grove on Radio but only for a minute,
,As we know ABC casually interviews and lampoons who they like and where they like ( left end around Torquay thanks raf epstein ) .
Libby Coker was one of the few who refused to take up the offer of a long interview to fully explain herself and then we hear " we cannot broadcast" . No cooincidence
Believe me, if you live in the west the contempt for the views of Country people is very real,
FYI my main aim in the 20 years we have broadcast election candidates is to give them TIME to fully explain their qualifications for office . One great advantage of COMMUNITY RADIO not one offer of support from ANY candidate!
For all the millions wasted on advertising we still do not get to know the candidates - Its an outrage !
Same with issues like Super
"They are trying to force you into voting in ignorance," Neil Mitchell said.
Same with issues like City telling the country what to do ...
If it wasn't for @MarciaLangton on Q and A ( talking about bureaus) noone would have twigged that fly in flt out governance is a huge issue in regional australia see below her honesty so welcome in a drought of cynical subdivision and pedantry over what :"defines : an issue" : see my definition of IDUIT
Then there is the vandalism . Symbolic Some party followers seem to think it OK to vandalize our posters , Do your homework ABC and find out why/where . We are not rich . we are not a proper target for Robin hood type raids and comparisons with Rhinehart .(New england damage recently) The city is cultivating the thievery and the destruction of private property , You are always asking why - ask this question for us
Apparently we can't do what you (The ABC) do freely in broadcasting anymore ( Ring 3CS and 3OCRFM)
