Now the spin don’t work, it just makes things worse…
The Hobart Mercury, 18/9/09
…and after the election, we most likely won’t see your face again.
Okay, we all know the Tasmanian ALP and Libs are minor subsidiaries of Gunns Ltd, but if they’re going to be so embarrassingly obvious about it, could they at least save us the weasel words and make it official policy?
As Howard discovered in 2007, eventually the spin stops working. Announcing another bike track really isn’t going to help.
Waiting for Pulpmill
The Hobart Mercury, 30 June 2009
The whole stinking Gunns pulp mill shemozzle has turned into a sort of Beckett play where you really hope Godot doesn’t turn up in the end. Gunns are apparently “moving forward positively with the preferred partner”. I do hope somebody has told their preferred partner that the mill has been costing a million dollars every day it’s been delayed since September 2007, so by my calculations it’s already around $670 million dollars in the hole. All I can say is thank god the RPDC wasn’t allowed to hold the bloody thing up.
David shows Gunns who’s boss
Five more months, and THAT’S IT!!
…Unless of course you tickle my tummy.
