I get tired of people who do not understand that the WA Nationals:
- Are not led by Sir Joh
- Are not dictated to by John Howard
- Are not in a coalition with the Liberals
- Are independent from the federal Nationals although we participate at national conferences
- Get practically ignored by Mark Vaile and the others
I am not conservative. I do not belong to a "hick" party. City people - Labor voters at the last election - are calling us begging us to run in metropolitan upper house at the next state election so they can vote for us. We have a former Perth weatherman and two people under the age of 40 in parliament. If you want to attack a party that fights for the bush and fights for ALL country people regardless of whether they are born here, from overseas, gay, straight, then I have no problem with that. But at least find out what we're about first. With that out of the way, I return to my usual NPOV-editing self. :)
