| Well, I have to admit Vanessa that there I times when I've wondered whether it's all worthwhile. Then I see things like the "Abbott" post and I am reminded what it is what it is we are dealing with, and what it is we have been fighting against. No comment from you on that one I note. Has it occurred to you that the ICG comprises people who care about the community and who, having suffered an election defeat, may have taken the view that there may be other, maybe better ways of making a useful contribution without going as far as standing in elections? Are you so completely incapable of recognising the benefits to elected members of an engaged community that you must leap in instinctively, and so defensively, whenever an initiative of this kind rears its head? Or are your efforts to provoke the ICG back into an adversarial position part of some bizarre strategy that I lack the political acumen to comprehend? If so I must assume the dangers of shooting yourself in the foot are something you have given due consideration to. |
