Comments on: Liberal Party supports discrimination http://www.brucellama.com/2011/05/09/liberal-party-supports-discrimination/ That's one crazy Llama Sat, 04 Oct 2014 22:50:30 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.5.4 By: Michael Barnett http://www.brucellama.com/2011/05/09/liberal-party-supports-discrimination/comment-page-1/#comment-2000 Tue, 10 May 2011 11:49:31 +0000 http://www.brucellama.com/?p=2003#comment-2000 I’m quite fond of this letter sent to MP Geoff Shaw today:

Mr Shaw

Your comments, apologies and dissimulations notwithstanding are a disgusting disgrace. You are a blight on public life in Victoria and Australia.

The recent passing of our last surviving World War I veteran only serves to remind us all that he fought to preserve the freedoms of someone like me, from someone like you.

Regretfully yours

Michael Wales

If they fail to be enacted I’ll amend.

It is incorrect to state “The new Victorian Liberal party has rolled back the discrimination laws allowing church based religious organisations….”

Great summary.

Is there an equivalent to the twiiter campaign for the slightly technologically behind like me?
