It should be noted that the man suggesting that a US Marine Corps chopper base be relocated from Japan to Townsville, Bob Natter, Rear Admiral – is retired and is just running this up the flag pole to see how it flies. He also highlights what he believes are the economic benefits to Townsville.

SOMETHING STINKS IN THE STATE OF QUEENSLAND!

Both Terry OGorman (Council for civil liberties) and Bill Carter, a former Qld judge, have called for cops not to be allowed to investigate themselves in light of the recent handing down of a CMC report detailing corruption by a large number of Qld Police. No doubt the Palm Island matters have also informed their views.
Mr OGorman also calls for a dedicated section within the CMC to exclusively deal with complaints to take it out of the hands of police and government agencies.

I’m glad Mr Gore has admitted that the cruise ship terminal is “dead in the water”.
(See “Business counts navy ship losses”
http://www.townsvillebulletin.com.au/article/2009/06/25/60661_hpnews.html and
“Phantoms and pies in the sky www.cynicismcentral.org/node/63 )

This is because it means that the canal estate is dead in the water. Qld Premier Bligh and mates are saying its not. Guess why ?

Now lets see what we have here:
• Defence Minister comes to Townsville and announces an expansion of berth ten at the Townsville Port so it can handle bigger and more naval vessels and cruise ships, putting paid to 2 of the arguments for an indentation of the Townsville Breakwater for a cruise ship terminal , and vindicating those who say it should be in the port. Well, I guess the defence minister is not putting any faith in the terminal project then. Best stay out of that one boys! ;

THE ONE ARMED BANDITS STRIKE AGAIN! http://cynicismcentral.org/node/62
Just goes to show, don’t it, the Labor party is like a one armed bandit (old fashioned poker machine). All developers have to do is put some coins in and pull the handle (and someone else pulls the strings), and , even if you come up with 2 lemons (Palleranda Conservation Park Residential Development and Flinders Mall becoming a road for your Plaza) you win the bloody jackpot!
