Oh what a parlous state we are in where all Australians should worry and start questioning why governments are never held accountable for their respective actions/decisions until election times when they get thrown out and then sit back on their huge separation packages. Let's for instance look at Victoria and wonder how the premier is [...]
When I look at the waste and mismanagement of politicians who should be and must be setting examples for the generations to come, I shudder to see what legacies we are leaving for them to struggle with.
