Harradine is honest, granted. But, I have a basic philosphical problem
with someone who wants to impose his religion on others by cutting
funds to family planning programs - see last Saturday's Canberra Times
- who also happens to control one of the vital Senate seats needed for
the new government to pass the impending horror budget.  

Will the pet peeves of one member of the Senate affect all Australians
(again? - remember the Greens! Now that was a tale of mismanagement on
an epic scale - perhaps next time the Minister Responsible won't laugh
at the balance-holder's request for more staff!)

Regards, Andrew Boyd
