Excerpts below from Miranda Devine in the HeraldSun today who explains the anger felt by the conservative electorates of Windsor and Oakeshott.
"TONY Windsor and Rob Oakeshott...sold out their constituents in return for flattery and back slapping in Canberra, and now they're feigning shock when they get blowback. Give us a break."
And on Windsor...
"DESCRIPTIONS of Windsor as "dingo" and "traitor" are not unknown on Inverell radio station 2NZ either. It ran a phone-in on the carbon tax, and in 30 minutes fielded 111 calls against and only three calls for. Tamworth's Northern Daily Leader ran a poll that found 75 per cent of people were against a carbon price."
and on Oakeshott...
"In the heart of his electorate, in Port Macquarie, the locals are "white hot" with anger against Oakeshott.
Brett Pye, owner of Pye Providores in Port Macquarie, calls Oakeshott an "idiot" for "siding with such a cowboy outfit as this Labor Government"."
