Wow! What a difference compared to SA
No posters or corflutes polluting the streets
Nothing in my letterbox
Apart from the spasmodic tv ad; nothing!
Other than what I read in the Manly Daily, I wouldnt have a clue who is standing
This is the way all election campaigns should be run: not seen and not heard!
What's your gut feeling Jimmy? I'll be watching Saturday night.
I find it rather amusing that NSW Labor criticise the Govt for the very same stuff their SA mates did with impunity
If I still had a Twitter account, I’d be posting some stuff to severely embarrass Labor.
Anyway, It would have to be the most lacklustre election I’ve ever seen (& I’ve seen 40 years of it!)
The most prosperous state in the country with more crains than the US (so I’ve been told) yet people will still complain because they know no different.
Budget surplus of $4.2Bn (mind you I haven’t checked it like I did SA)
That’s actually not a good thing depending on overall State debt. I’d be cutting taxes to really lift the state economy and people’s spending power (we have Sunday shopping here and the city is alive on Sundays!)
But spending $730m on a new stadium? Dumb.. but it worked for Rann & Foley. Imagine if they’d used that money for health instead of trashing it.
Who will win? NFI and I haven’t found a person who will take a punt. This is a different Australia up here. I live on the northern beaches and have no idea what goes on in the southern, eastern or western suburbs.
