Another week in the Territory and maybe our last ever week of self government. From lots of footy played in Danger Stadium to sending Kon Vatskalis out to be the NT’s travelling salesman, to our exclusive – finding Labor’s lost policy document for tomorrow’s election. This is all that is good and what is gammon this week.
Another week in the Territory and another week closer to execution by election. From the big discovery that trees can be used for shade, to lives lost if the CLP get in, to who we know is really going to be the Chief Minister. This is all that is good and what is gammon this week.
OPINION: Rod Campbell, the research director at independent think tank The Australia Institute, writes that government money spent on the fracking industry is a bad choice and the Territory needs to focus on industries that create the most employment, are viable in the long term, and bring Territorians together in a constructive way.
It has been another week in the Territory and we are playing hotspot bingo. From the smell of burning frappes trackside to a Terry-less utopic future, to the real Territory heroes, the unsung Labor Ministers. Here is what is good and what is gammon this week.
Another week in the Territory and it gets more confusing everyday. From getting big footy games, to media cheer squads to the NT entering a parallel universe where the laws of mathematics no longer apply. Here is what is good and gammon this week.
Another week in the Territory and who knows what’s going on in the topsy-turvy world. From political campaigning on the sides of the road to Sleepy Joel Bowden, to our suggestion for the Territory’s next Administrator. This what is good and what is gammon this week.
ANALYSIS: The serious abuse of office charge laid against NT Children’s Commissioner Colleen Gwynne has exposed troubling integrity issues in the NT’s public institutions and raised some uncomfortable questions for the Gunner Government ahead of the Territory election next month, writes Christopher Walsh
OPINION: Regardless if you are pro-, anti-, indifferent or unsure about onshore gas, you have to know that Terry Mills and Territory Alliance are actively misleading when claiming the NT Government has already spent $100 million on the onshore gas industry.
Another week in the Territory and hello to Australia again (screw you Melbourne and Sydney). From quarantineless visitors to the NT, to our Antichief Minister, to our idea for the Territory Mount Rushmore, here is what is good and gammon this week.
Another week in the Territory and we are now turning our back on the rest of Australia again to snuggle with old easy diseasy Victoria. From the homegrown Darwin Festival to the dickheads who walk among us, to a Housing Minister spinning bullshit like his life, and his political pension, depends on it.
The five core characteristics of good government include the principles of transparency and accountability and make the foundation of strong economic and community development, Dr Don Fuller writes. He then uses these characteristics to evaluate the Gunner Government, which swept to power in 2016 and famously tabled a document to Parliament entitled, Restoring Integrity to Government– Trust and Integrity Reform Discussion Paper.
Another week in the Territory and Australia is shipping us more ‘rona. From Turkey Day with no kaboomy to the Government flogging off heart-lung machines in a two-for-one deal on buy, swap or sell, to Stockholm syndrome striking down the Territory’s most popular bloke. This is what has been good and what has been gammon this week.
