Dystopia
Flying so high..
Thanks Beach, I had seen this before and now watched it again. I admit, I still can't figure out what either of them is actually trying to say.Interesting post Dystopia! If Peta Credlin was the Premier of Victoria do you think she'd be handling the pandemic situation better than Dan Andrews?
I'm not an Alan Jones fan but this is interesting!
Alan Jones: "Well to the lady whom you all tell me should vacate the deluxe chair and run the joint. I'll tell you what, with Peta Credlin in charge we wouldn't be enduring this sort of nonsense. She's one of our political hopes of the future. The near future I hope at that..."
Alan Jones has said things in the past I agree with and I appreciate when individuals have the courage to go against the mainstream. In his position though, courage has never been the issue because he simply could afford to swim up-stream... in fact, as a shock-jock he has always been expected to. My problem with him is his gung ho attitude.
Saying that "She's one of our political hopes of the future. The near future I hope at that..." is nothing but a platitude, the kind you would frequently read in the 'comments' section of Youtube channels that deal with alternative views on politics.
Would Credlin handle the pandemic better than Andrews? She might, if she had all the figures and numbers she complains are not available to us, at her fingertips. But let's not forget who she is! She is a commentator and closet activist, not a politician.
Being Chief od Staff, even if you're a good one, doesn't automatically qualify you to be a politician.
At this stage I'm afraid, not even a change in leadership would make a difference in regards to the pandemic. The virus doesn't take breaks and won't pause for our politicians to sort themselves out and catch up with reality. To legislate takes time, especially in a Democracy.
