Microsoft Teams: jeez Louise, glad himself was here to help. Typical of the ACT govt to make life for *normal* ppl as difficult as possible, in public consultation situations. Grrrrrr.....
Anyhoo, planning for the North Curtin development is progressing in typical ACT govt fashion: A DOG'S BREAKFAST.

So I don't quite understand the ANU council resignations today.
I understand these were council positions that were appointed by the education minister, yeah?
Did they resign out of some principle or something? Or was it their individual choice to give up their positions?
(Story ref: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-05-12/act-four-anu-council-members-quit-after-julie-bishop-resignation/106669744 )
What the blazes is going on in our #EducationSystem ? Is this another example of #Managerialism going wrong?
“Dr McNeill was appointed CEO in June 2025, but while applying for the role, did not tell the CIT board she was under investigation by TAFE NSW for "serious misconduct".
The controversy sparked the public inquiry, which led to an assembly committee making seven recommendations and 11 findings, including that Dr McNeill should have disclosed the information about the misconduct investigation to the CIT board in a timely manner.
Dr McNeill told the committee that she had sought to disclose the investigation to CIT during the recruitment process but had been advised on multiple occasions, both verbally and in writing, by TAFE NSW that she was not permitted to do so. “

ACT Government locks in direct light rail stage 2B to Woden.
Lovely morning at Mawson with Andrew Braddock, Sam Carter, and my friend Emad.
And I’ve run out of flyers thanks to some very pleasant post-stall letterboxing on this fine Sunday.
If you also want to see north Tuggeranong and south Woden friends jump on light rail from Mawson park & ride or bike & ride, reducing cars on the road by thousands more each day, you can sign the petition here:

ACT has two new “voices” groups: #Belconnen / #Gungahlin and #Canberra, styled as #communityIndependents. The latter featured in today’s Canberra Times.
I have explored things “voices” for many years and maybe should write more about it one day, but ... First, I think it’s a good thing. Second, it may be little understood these groups are not bottom-up. #ACTPol #AUSPol
Links to both organisations in reply.
I find it astounding how we have absolutely no Charismatic leadership from either the RSL or Politicians about why Universal human rights exist and why ‘Rules of Wars’ exist, and the history of it all.
The fact we have ‘Rules of war’ denialism - in this country is astounding, and that the denialism perverts parts of the ADF, including the SAS.
Australia has been a significant beneficiary of both Universal human rights and ‘Rules of Wars’. Sadly we also have a history of being antagonists in the development of modern international law.
Lest we forget.

Shane Rattenbury will be missed in #ACTpol. Incredibly hard working, respected and dedicated politician.
