YMCO - UPDATE

QED...

If (big one) proof that matters aeronautical needed 'political' support and governmental control; a classic example can be found in the Mallacoota imbroglio (or cock up if you prefer). The local member acted promptly on behalf of his voting public, took the case to the minister and got the ball rolling toward a righteous result. Well done democracy, the MP D. Chester and the local council.



People vote for the representative and the representation they want; their voice in the running of the country to protect their rights and give voice to their 'will'. The notion that those who are not elected can ride rough shod over the will, wishes, needs and demands of the voting public, without being accountable is not remotely democratic, borderline communism IMO. The time for rationalisation and acceptance of 'responsibility' in both the local and ministerial offices is now; it is, after all said and done a big part of the job description - ain't it?

Toot toot.
