Just received this email from a mate.
I think his exasperation is shared by many!
"What an appalling situation when our government , driven by electoral weightings in the western suburbs , say no to
sending a vessel to assist our allies in the Red Sea. I am embarrassed !!
We have become a woke filled, confused island with no moral compass. The decline has been generational & ably assisted
by a left wing teacher’s union & useless bureaucrats . The corporate world has also been complicit in this decline due to
the absence of leadership, with frightened bed wetters [ MBA in hand ] solely focussed on their bonuses & share holdings.
To wit .. one A Joyce.
Here I am in communist Vietnam surrounded by the celebration of Christmas . Decorations everywhere , Carols playing
in the background wherever I go. In Australia … too hard basket. It is also a vibrant, energetic country with an exciting future.
Recommissioning their nuclear plant after trying to make wind & solar work. Well educated population where parents value
education.
Off my soap box now, thanks to all for your highly valued friendship throughout the year."
