Governments are owned by all of the people
They are not the property of an elite few unless the people permit it to be so, as many people have. Take back your democracy and governments.
Similarly public corporations are owned by shareholders. The public service is the public service, not the government service.
Institutions are the property of the people. They should not be torn down by
decrepit politics and policies developed to support the
careers of craven, self interested politicians and managerial types.
Political advisers should be paid by the politician personally and not
out of the public purse.
There are
many ways to exert influence.

It was not until Dr. Geoff Gallop had gone from politics that we could the see real man, see and hear his compassion and
disillusionment with Australian political life.
He resigned as Premier of Western Australia in 2006 when depression overcame him.
Hs words quoted below sum up the quality of the man and the broken state of our democracy.
"Yes we do have to eat to live, but we also need to breathe and to feel. Nor is it just a matter of soul. Life needs to be meaningful as well aspractical and relational," Gallop, June 2006.
Australia's two political parties have jettisoned their philosophies.
They have adopted pragmatism and cyncical self interest as alternatives".
The leaders of Australia's federal, state and territory governments have not risen to
their high office. Instead they have brought public office down to their level. The senior managers of Australia's public services have emulated
this decline. Among other things Australia is a nation governed using fear as a principle political tool. Fear of terorism, fear of interest rate rises,
fear of our neighbours and fear of ourselves. Advertised, reinforced and manipulated for political gain under our
two party system of government.
