Statue.


Here in Vic we are about to get a statue to the previous Premier of this state. which will cost $134,000. This brilliant idea comes when we are up to our eyeballs in debt, and is a tribute to someone who started the spiral. Methinks it will not be up long before someone changes the colour scheme or, better still, thinks he looks more appealing horizontal.

It will be up exactly for one day and be destroyed the next day, after spending another million or two refixing it over a year, they will give up and bill everybody for the mess.

"In 1999, Jeff Kennett created a policy allowing Victorian premiers, who served more than 3000 days in office, to be recognised with a statue". No conditions applicable.

Get the current Premier to withdraw this policy or obtain a policy opinion of withdrawal from the Opposition.

That's how Government works.

Another statue we all paid for. Actually, we paid for both of them, although the one on the left cost us a lot more.

 Yes dorian. I did slip up on that one, until I read your post I didn't realise my error. Thanks for the way that you replied. Very kind of you.
