Kate Lundy, Senator for the ACT today launched a campaign targeting the Prime Minister’s refusal to live in Canberra and the Liberal party’s attacks on the Nation’s Capital.
“This postcard campaign aims to draw the Prime Minister’s attention to the anger and frustration felt by many people in Canberra and the environs. It is my hope the Prime Minister office will be inundated with 10 000 of these postcards. I will be establishing an electronic version of the postcard with the Prime Minister’s email address, allowing anyone with email capacity to electronically inundate the PM’s office – that’s cyber democracy for you.
“In launching this postcard I am only too aware that many Canberran’s will be facing a grim Christmas and there does not appear to be light at the end of the tunnel for Canberra’s residents and business.
In response to the recent comments made by Senator Ian Campbell that the recession caused by the Coalition in the ACT was ‘fantastic’, Senator Lundy said “I hope that people all over Australia will join me in making a New Years resolution that sees the end of a Government that finds the suffering of other Australian’s humorous.
Updated information on the postcard campaign is available on Kate’s home page:www.tip.net.au/~klundy/.
This press conference will be telecast on Channel 12
