The Libs only endorse ethnic candidates who are anti ethnic. I mean, Sophia Mirabella is no friend of anyone except Johno Howard, Lizzie Windsor and Adolf Hitler. But ethnic ALP members need to wake up and realise that the right will never show them the support that their voting numbers and loyalty deserve. Just look at how they dumped John pandazopoulos

Me Lambros. You Jane. Another lawyer trying to climb the ALP ladder of opportunity. Whats that about the cream of the working class being replaced by the dregs of the middle class ?

Anonski, I follow your comments on this blog of freedom very closely and often disagree with your comments.

“Lambros is a dufus god help victoria if he ever becomes an MP”

The last person heard uttering that was Chris Anderson, the day before the Moreland City Council elections.

24 hours later, Lambros led him onto Sydney Rd, had him tarred and feathered, and slapped on a dunce cap reading “Mr 6%”.

Do not cross the path of Zeus’ underestimated son.

By the way, Stupid Ethnics, Don Naredella is not Anglo. He is Italian. And O’Connor is an Irish immigrant. I dare you to call him Anglo to his face!

Anonski, I follow your comments on this blog of freedom very closely and often disagree with your comments. However, having said that, let me say this, I agree some of our current front bench shouldn’t be in these positions. I do believe that several other backbenchers should be sitting on the front bench instead. If you had of seen my efforts while sitting at the dispatch box late yesterday afternoon, you would have seen how comfortable I looked sitting in this position. Although the acting speaker didn’t laugh at my attempted humour when she addressed me as’Minister’, that I thanked her for the promotion. I hope you agree Anonski that I am one of the backbenchers that should be on the front bench, if only my mate KRudd agreed.

The Greens need less than 4% swing to win Brunswick in 2010. The gradual change in demographics – the passing on of the old Greek/Italian post WW2 migrants who were rusted on ALP voters – make Brunswick ripe for the picking by the Greens. I have heard that Jane Garrett is a social conservative and no fan of outdoor art in the city of Yarra. That is hardly going to gain her votes in the People’s Republic of Brunswick

What about what’s happening out in Ivanhoe – where Langdon’s latest young male chum Rick Garroti [who wrote a letter endorsing the old fella last week]has turned on him and nominated for the seat at noon today?

What kind of juice does he have on Craig? What kind of juice does Craig have on him?

This whole debate about ethnic representation is completely misguided. The focus should be on which individual will best represent the interests of the Brunswick community and the answer is simple: Lambros Tappinos.
Hats off to Jane Garrett for her reputation, but the truth is that she is simply another SL stooge. Lambros has an incredibly high approval rating as Mayor, is well respected by the locals and will be strong against the Greens.

Lambros MP, Brunswick.

The western suburbs are a perfect example of multiculturalism we have a group of mps who are Anglos. The wogs have been used and diverted. Freedom to the wogs!

ONE of Victorian Premier John Brumby’s key advisers, former journalist Nick Reece, is being pushed as a replacement for embattled ALP state secretary Stephen Newnham.

Nice guy but thick and lazy ….

if jane garrett wins brunswick, her council seat will go to the Greens. the once powerful North fitzroy branch of the ALP could not find her a running mate for the multimember ward.

Only the ALP would be interested in ethnic division like who is an anglo, who is a wog and all the rest of it.

The rest of the country has moved on past race clan wars.

The Greens and Phil Cleary are the only candidates running that will uphold traditional Labor values. Together they will return the seat of Brunswick to the people of Brunswick.
