Who wants to know the truth about Piles Creek Somersby?

It is very hard to attract attention of mainstream print media because they enjoy a huge amount of advertising dollars from local councils which is in conjunction with being in the media release loop. In the last twelve months I have spent over fifteen thousand dollars publishing what I believe to be evidence of wrongdoing. I believe it is a waste of time taking a political argument into a court of law. I am not frightened of the courts but it is a user pays system and not a place for the poor. On the other hand I am also aware truth is not always a defence to defamation. I have not read the revised defamation act. But I have continued to name politicians and identify their lies in full and half page ads. I have these ads in a format which I can email to interested parties. I know I am not alone in seeking honest representative government. But I do understand so many people who have been bullied and stood over. Have more sense than me and just move on, because they can see the fight for rights with unrepresentative government is almost always more damaging that the initial wrong. When you discover the politician you go to is almost always tied to the party and the party will dictate how you get on. While I pushed for the sacking of Gosford City Council and still do, I was often the brunt of media attacks which were supportive of the dodgy council and dismissive of me. After members of the Bragg and Holt families died as a direct result of the collapse of the road into Piles Creek at Somersby. I was in a position to and do expose council for what it is. I am still trying to finish what I started. I am tired and worn out, the same thing is happening to me as happens to hundreds of others who make the mistake of believing that truth is all you need to expose and the rest will fall into place. I know MM a person much more articulate that me, has engaged Canterbury City Council on his mothers behalf. It is a shame that the Canterbury ratepayers can’t understand that their councillors are not representing them properly, there is a conflict of interest Councillors were elected to represent ratepayers not management and ratepayer’s money is being spent providing a shield for management nonfeasance, misfeasance, and more recently malfeasance. Where people should have been disciplined it seems they were not, following that perhaps others who did not do their jobs should have been sacked, and now we can follow the erection of legal fences which are attempting to hide the perceived wrongdoing which is now compounding those earlier errors of judgement, or denial of due process / natural justice. Hornsby Council is another example of this abusive process; I hear there are now calls at the level of Premier and Cabinet to investigate the Department of Local Government because it seems to be part of the problem. Federal State and Local governments are all using our tax dollars to pay lawyers to keep honest people from engaging in and directing our democratic process. There is no doubt good honest taxpayers are being trampled by dishonest politicians and the party hierarchy who are with their cashed up cronies actively trashing our democratic process. The community archive resource of Sydney Independent Media has been destroyed at a time when three elections in NSW within sixteen months are on the way that archive material will have been invaluable to individual non-politically aligned activist it gone. I would be happy to reload photos to support what I write but the new site is just beyond me.
