1 are you a Labor/Liberal/Greens supporter
I am not a member of any political party, but I am a member of the Institute of Public Affairs (IPA) but not a representative of theirs. I am an economic conservative with Libertarian leanings. I differ with Libertarians in that I favour zero tolerance on drugs whereas they promote deregulation.

2 would you say you are a conservative or progressive thinker
I am an economic conservative and classically liberal, except on opposition to religion. So, I prefer small government. Individual rights that allow freedom. I despise censorious progressives that abuse the word to be regressive in extremist green/red fashion.

3 what changes would you like to see in our great City of Greater Dandenong

Cut red tape for business. Employ more young people with growing small business. better public transport facilities and vectors. More car parks for business. Appropriate spaces for worship (cf New Life need a home). Improved planning without the infrastructure faux pas Council created in the past, where housing estates are denied internet access.

Over the past 24 months, I've approached the local police regarding speeding vehicles on Bloomfield Rd in Keysborugh, we had a number of near fatality on this road due to excessive speeding, every night without fail we have speeders hit in excess speeds of 120 km/ph. Please note there is a kindergarten on this road and i can assure you there are vehicles travelling well over the speed limit during the day. I've raised this issue with the local authorities a number of times and the response always appears to be the same, request to have the council install speed traps / humps, I've approached the council a number of times and my requests for speed traps & speed humps have fallen on deaf ears.

How will you address this issue?
What measure can you promise to put in place to prevent this from occurring?
Please note my parents also live on this Road and they are looking to me to advise them who to vote for come the 22nd of October.
There are two ways of addressing this, as I see it. Physical barriers will obstruct the flow of traffic and seem inappropriate. The alternative is policing. The problem with that is Victoria's government, run by Dan Andrews, has placed restrictions on police from doing their duty.

That does not mean nothing can be done. Council could act if council had appropriate statistics. One thing I think effective is CCTV. Council can set up in appropriate areas surveillance and can save the material for research purposes for a set time, before analysing it and destroying it. I suggest you put a proposal like that before new council. Publicly. There is no need to mention your company or business. You have every right, as an individual, to campaign for safety of your loved ones, and the community.

I would point out that the issue you raise is ancient. Horse and buggy were once claiming a terrible toll on the community. The husband of Marie Curie was killed in a road accident. US Grant confessed he exceeded safety laws as a young man. Speeding is not of itself, solely the factor of all accidents. We don't want kids stealing cars and joy riding either. We don't want criminals stealing cars and committing other crimes.

Even without CCTV, you can point to statistics referring to local collisions verified by police. You might need to access records using Freedom of Information laws. I wish you, your family and your community well.

A fitting collective noun for that crew. "A monstrous regiment of women" They approve of FGM for cultural reasons. They approve of women stoned to death for cultural reasons. They approve of honour killings and they turn a blind eye to women denied an education. They seek to undermine children with safe schools and blame good men for the actions of bad ones. Their choices get their children killed, and they are lauded for blaming others. The enormity of their choices.

We don't need to have our constitution divide us on race.

The press have not got a good moderator that Hillary would accept

Liberals need competent policies which they can call their own. Let Hanson accept them or not. But the impediment is Turnbull. He wants the lodestone he can end his career on. He isn't looking for good policy to promote the party. Or Australia.

Max Walker died too young. But he lived a blessed, good life. Heaven has an excellent seam bowler added to her arsenal. And in the evenings, he can entertain with riveting stories.

Michael Moore admits that Hillary has lost all credibility in the eyes of voters. But he bizarrely still claims she speaks the truth.

As nice as it sounds, it won't happen. I think it better to address the issue of Islamic extremism. I think Islamic leaders who support extremism should be incarcerated until Islamic extremists stop killing others. That would be a workable solution. Under Islamic custom, it is considered cleaner to cut off their genitals without anaesthetic. They do it to their female children, so it should apply to their strong men. I guess that last bit is not acceptable under Australian laws. Anyways, find Islamic leaders who have produced material supporting terrorism, and jail them until the war on terror is over, or they recant publicly. And explain why they are still Muslim after having recanted terror. Actually, a better idea I have I call Shariah Law. I understand they want that. Under Shariah Law any Muslim with terrorist sympathies must be sent back to the nation they support. Who wouldn't want that Shariah Law?
The entire state of Sth Australia is in blackout. Blame stupid anti market policies combined with 40% renewable energy policy that has squeezed out old base load generators meaning little redundancy.
Trying not laugh but geez, one more time... Socialism doesn't work! Andrew Cooper
It is just like Earth Hour, imposed on the entire state of SA. They pay the highest wholesale price for their electricity of any Australian state. All so they can starve plants to save the planet from .. ?
Three years ago, Obama said the US had killed Muslims. Now he wants the US to house terrorists who kill Muslims.

Jingle Bell Rock

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air

What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh

Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell rock

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bell chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air

What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh

Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle...

Intro to Locals for the Conservative Voice

David Daniel Ball calls himself the Conservative Voice.

I'm a teacher with three decades experience teaching math to high school kids.I also work with first graders and kids in between first grade and high school. I know the legends of why Hypatia's dad is remembered through his contribution to Math theory. And I know the legend of why followers of Godel had thought he had disproved God's existence.

I'm not a preacher, but I am a Christian who has written over 28 books all of which include some reference to my faith. Twelve blog books on world history and current affairs, detailing world events , births and marriages on each day of the year, organised by month. Twelve books on the background to and history of Bible Quotes. One Bible quote per day for a year. An intro to a science fiction series I'm planning, post apocalyptic cyber punk. An autobiography with short story collections.

I'm known in Australia for my failure as a whistleblower over the negligence death of a school boy. ...
