AUSTRALIA
.
POLITICS
.
Politicians
. Brian Harradine is currently an
old
Tasmanian
Senator
. What you have is a
senile old man
out of touch
with current issues. This results in some very
stiff necked
traditionalist
policies that are based more on a lack of information and subsequent
fear of the unknown
than any solid evidence.
One of his more
stupid idea
s was for
censorship of the internet in Australia
. If Harradine had done his job and
considered
the
technical plausibility
of this
everybody would be happier
. His actions speak of his
latent stupidity
.
I now I'm sure there are plenty of
nice old men
out there with very liberal views, but Harradine is not one of them. My pet hate has to be of
proponents
of
action fueled by ignorance
. This is
none the other
.
I'd like to leave you with an excellent quote from Brian Harradine:
"...
[
I
] do get a huge volume of mail. One day in December last year 2,300 actual pieces of mail came to me--and that is not counting the email.
Whoever invented email ought to be strung up!
So I do apologise..."
