I can’t believe my luck!

Yesterday I posted about the inheritance I am going to receive and now it looks like I am being courted by a wealthy Princess from Côte d'Ivoire!  I can’t wait to see what tomorrow brings!

I won’t be blogging anymore. I have been left some money!

This is to let you know that this will be my last blog!  I received this email today letting me know that I am the beneficiary of some money.   I think it is a lot of money, hence the mysterious nature of the “profitable and classified monetary transaction”!

I’ve got to go.  I have to transfer $20,000 via Western Union to cover “transaction costs”.  I know that sounds like a lot but I have the “utmost commitment and trust” in Keith!

So I just wanted to thank you all for reading my blog.  I will think of you when I am sailing down the Riviera!

JPL’s promise at odds with LNP actions?

Queensland Opposition Leader John-Paul Langbroek did what all Opposition Leaders do and pledge a new style of politics and clean up the obviously broke Government.  He calls it truth in politics.

‘‘We will introduce truth in political advertising laws that will ensure Queenslanders get a fair-dinkum choice between the policies,’’ he said.

‘‘Our plan to clean up government will stop once and for all the lies that Queenslanders were exposed to at the last state election.’’

But how will he deal with service contracts?  Hopefully not the same way the LNP does.

Queensland's Liberal National Party paid almost $250,000 to companies owned by senior party officials in the first six months of the year.

The LNP last night defended the payments, saying high-ranking party figures were paid via their companies on a contractual basis rather than being employed.

An LNP spokesman said party members should not be concerned about the payments, as the relevant officials were not employed but instead contracted through their companies.

Will we really see a new era of truth in politics, or just that same old deals for mates mantra?
