As I put a lot of time and effort into the Festival, gratis, I reckon that's fair enough. I still say, let's support all the events for the good of the Cross rather than descend into in-fighting.

We say again, let's support ALL the KX events and avoid the small-town trap of throwing stones when you live in a glass house." Doesn't sound like he is supporting all other local events in this comment. Sounds like sour grapes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7838969.post-1101295460120224372004-11-24T22:24:00.000+11:002004-11-24T22:24:00.000+11:00Today's wentworth Courier has a nasty letter about...Today's wentworth Courier has a nasty letter about the just finished Arts Festival.

My guess is he would have simply been a rubber stamp for Bob Carr's ambitions, with the occasional act of social conscience where there was seen to be zero political risk for the party.<br /><br />Michael's only real contribution seemed to be his plan for child care attached to schools, which while a worthy idea, is more a state issue than a council one.The Editorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16827285775130578187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7838969.post-1100511080286363182004-11-15T20:31:00.000+11:002004-11-15T20:31:00.000+11:00"Whatever her faults, she is way
..."Whatever her faults, she is way <br /> ahead of any of the alternatives"<br /><br />I think Michael Lee would have been an outstanding Lord Mayor. He was regarded as a possible future Prime Minister. He is so far ahead of the rest in intellect and administrative experience that your comment about Cr Moore has no credibility. Cr Lee is highly regarded by both the residents and business ,something which Cr Moore lacks.<br /><br />I agree with the first comment about Cr Moore .Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7838969.post-1100498193027782612004-11-15T16:56:00.000+11:002004-11-15T16:56:00.000+11:00It was the Sartor-appointed staff who behaved so b...It was the Sartor-appointed staff who behaved so badly, not so much Clover. <br /><br />The new signage policy for the Cross is a brilliant example of response to community interests, thanks to Clover -- who also wore some political flak from the bigots over it. The previous council would never have countenanced such a thing. <br /><br />To blame Clover for the attitude of the bureaucracy is not quite honest -- the distinction must be made, I think.The Editorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16827285775130578187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7838969.post-1100497721157344812004-11-15T16:48:00.000+11:002004-11-15T16:48:00.000+11:00Clover in fact has an excellent record of promotin...Clover in fact has an excellent record of promoting the interests of her constituents. That's why she's so popular with the electorate. You Clover-haters need to come up with more credible stuff if you hope to influence others.
