Chester officially on IOS shit-list -

In the aftermath of the Tamworth GA "N"-DAY the BRB convened an extraordinary meeting before festivities began. What brought this on was the despicable performance of the man that the Coalition political elite have put in charge of the aviation portfolio.

First a quote from my Dear Barnaby post (note the parts in bold):

..Dear Barnaby


While your dithering about fighting a rear guard action against Tony Windsor & the 'Stop Shenhua' (legends) action group, there are a couple of other issues happening in or close to your party's interest and your electorate's interest that will demand several policy directions, intentions, proclamations and/or ironclad promises.

First though on behalf of the many regional & rural citizens that live in and around the Liverpool plains can't you have a word to PM Malcolm and Premier Baird to finally really put this long festering matter to bed. The uncertainty to the local farmers & communities is akin to playing Russian roulette while holding the gun to their heads, not healthy and not a good look when your both the Nationals leader and the Agriculture Minister.

And it is not like you haven't had time to sort out a solution to this current impasse: 

Read Tim Duddy's 2011 SMH article : http://www.smh.com.au/federal-politics/political-opinion/our-food-bowls-should-not-be-sacrificed-to-mining-20110817-1ixpe.html#ixzz45NJVEg20

   
...Next as NATS leader you would think you'd want to be front & centre of regional development .  However I think I understand why it is that you have stepped away from the DoIRD. It can be a troublesome portfolio, especially because Transport (at long last with a capital "T") resides within and can be a minefield in the lead in to election campaigns..

I also pay you and Malcolm kudos for bringing back the word Transport into the Ministerial Department lexicon and establishing a second Minister to oversee that part of a very busy Department. However the cynics in my sector of the transport industry feel that Mr Chester is merely a photogenic filter to again give you some distance on the rising volume of discord within the now big "T" transport industry.

Unfortunately for you Barnaby the filter strategy has not worked, you can run but you can't hide and the "T" issues are starting to come home to roost...

From the PAIN email chain apparently BJ's office boffins picked up on this post of mine & forwarded to the DPM. Who somewhat surprisingly decided to reply addressing many of the issues contained in that post (see HERE), including the "photogenic filter" comment above:

I would disagree with your assertion that Minister Chester is "merely a photogenic filter" and have the highest regard for Ministers Nash and Chester as outstanding elected representatives of the highest abilities who have complete and total dedication to the people and portfolios they serve.

 
After yesterday's performance that BJ statement, with the exception of Senator Fiona Nash  who wasn't there (& after the PelAir Inquiry & many Senate Estimates, the IOS & PAIN have much affection and high regard for) -  it has to be said is complete and utter BOLLOCKS!

Therefore at the BRB last night a vote was taken and Dazzling Dazza has officially been IOS shit-listed and demoted to miniscule.  On top of that PAIN has been officially given the GREEN light to attack, lambast, belittle, discredit the miniscule at every available opportunity - happy days Gobbles & Ferryman .

Dear Darren (the Twit) Chester :

Ps Expect the "K" Sundy ramble to be quite colourful -
