Now with Beer Garden for our smoking patrons.Whether it's inspiring or not has nothing at all to do with it. The Premier of this state kicked off his election campaign officially and announced his plans for the future, and our only newspaper doesn't seem to think its important enough for the front page. The same tabloid toilet paper that thought Marshall's sick sister was important enough for the front page.Waewick wrote:did you watch the release on Ch.24?
bloody uninspiring stuff, basically claimed a couple of Mike Rann wins, but everything else either was a result of Federal funding or basically begging for federal funding.
I know you have a dislike of Liberal, but what Labor is putting on the table, after 12 years at the helm is basically, don't vote Liberal because they haven't been in Power for 12 years.
I guess we will see when/if Liberal release any policy, then we'll see where it is on the Paper and we can probably get an idea who they are going for.
I know you're a conservative liberal supporter, but the Liberal party are putting NOTHING on the table for voters to decide on.
What is happening is the media is giving a biased presentation of this election and trying to form people's opinions for them in a herd mentality.
Marshall has surged ahead in news ltd tabloid polls because they are running an anti-Labor anti-Weatherill media campaign on behalf of the Liberal party.
The majority of people source the information they base their opinions and views on from the media. News ltd is the only newspaper in town.
They are taking full advantage of their monopoly to influence the election outcome.
The only time we really hear anything from the Liberals is when the media are running a negative story on the government and they get a willing Liberal party member to talk rubbish about the government. They rarely offer any alternative and when they so it's lacking substance.
Marshall will be a nothing Premier who will merely be a puppet for Abbott.
And my rants have nothing to do with which party I prefer. There is a clear bias and a lack of substance from the liberals. That my problem.
They've had 12 long years to come up with suitable and inspiring alternatives to what the government has to offer.
So why aren't they sharing it with the rest of the state? Because they lack any real vision.
You say Labors successes have come mostly with federal help. Well name for us state Liberal plans that won't require federal money...do they even have policies and plans with federal help?
I'll tell you...they will sell off assets like SA Water, upgrade part of south road with it.
If they can't come up with policies in 12 years how are they going to run the state? Selling assets isn't running a state.
They failed as an opposition and they will fail as a government.
