CANBERRA : The Nixon Voodoogate
years are upon us as fear, loathing and infighting
grows in Coalition
circles . On the Federal scene , there is leaking
against the Prime Minister’s Office; Environment Minister Hunt , strangely , did not attend the Lima climate
change talks ; even the right wing media
and cheerleaders , to an extent , are turning against the Coalition. They could not turn a blind eye to
the obvious disintegration .
In Queensland the polls continue to show that Campbell
Newman will be ejected and many more LNP seats will be lost . It
seems fanciful that the ALP could win
enough seats to gain
power, but you never know . An astonishing
Brisbane newspaper claimed prominent LNP identity
Dr Flegg , who recently lost endorsement for his safe seat in a bloody battle , was
subjected to voodoo!!!! In a number of break ins , a spooky
voodoo doll was supposedly found in his house
. Mind you, the walking dead is an apt decription for the LNP where there is obvious jockeying
going on over Newman’s body .
In the Northern Territory, where the Tory brand goes under the name of
the Country Liberal Party, the disarray and infighting
is patently obvious , Chief Minister Adam Giles
is in deep strife after sale of TIO . There is tag wrestling within the ranks .
If a wild rumour
heard in Darwin is true
, it is another case of déjà vu
of which modern journalists
would not be aware . However , a person trying to pass on
the information as a news
tip , which used to be part of basic
news gathering , was given the bum’s
rush by a media chappy who seemed
more interested in Kardashian handbags and suchlike
crap. Darwin journalists also appear to be deaf to or unaware of another scandalous situation
down the track
. Strange blundering by key people in industrial talks , somehow , is not
picked up by the local scribes . Where are the contacts, the rounds the getting out the office and nosing about ? It is a situation ripe for a troppo Deep Throat to regularly meet a journo in one of Darwin’s dark carparks to whisper
news tips ... and hand out a free handbag as a reward .
NEXT: The
march of the zombies on the
Queensland
election
trail and the
battle for the ADF
vote in Darwin and Townsville .
