Comment on Top scorer knocks back Deputy Mayor job by Laurence.
@ Rippedoff Ratepayer: I think I am forced to disagree with your assessment of Mr Cocking’s hairstyle. To me it is no different from the Mullet that I wore as a younger person, remembering that a Mullet was business up front and party round the back.
Mr Cocking’s hairstyle represents his age and life choices, you and I may think they are feral. But he has the courage of his convictions and he has the right to present himself accordingly.
It also allows you to see the true person rather than some gormless robot doing their master’s bidding.

@ Hal: Hahaha. I didn’t catch on at first. Definitely a fashion trend that is totally out of place in Central Australia.

Ms Roullet is usually very vocal on those that use pseudonyms always invoking words of disdain for those that do – unless it seems you agree with her.
But the funny thing is, this interesting sidelight is a direct comparison with people on “issues of concern” when asked for proof of the latest “hot topic” all we tend to receive are cry’s of “denier” and denunciations of the opposing viewpoint.
Go figure.

Typical over-reaction by small minded and petty local politicians, just so glad [they] are still the minority.

Hahaha. Sent to Darwin away from family and friends … what an absolute joke.
Their family should have cared enough to stop them running amuck. And their bloody friends are the F-Wits egging them on.
It just gives the feral no-hopers reason to moan and scream for more funding.
Pfft a pox on the lot of you.

Wonderful to hear from you Simon. Good to know that you don’t care about anyone but yourself or is that just how you come across. Sorry to disappoint but I’m not feral enough to live on the Old Eastside but by reading your tirade you certainly have all the prerequisites for that suburb e.g. whiny and self-indulgent.
I love your referencing of the Gardens Oval in Darwin. I can’t remember seeing any housing nearby or is it the Casino that you are worried about, perhaps it’s the amphitheater.
But I have to admit you have given all the readers a perfect example of what a NIMBY is. I just wonder if you complain to all and sundry if your neighbours leave their backyard lights on.

I agree James but there will always be those narrow visioned few that believe their personal rights far outweigh something that could be for the greater good.
