		<description><![CDATA[On Tuesday when the Libs kick out the petulant Malcolm Turnbull for his blatant disregard of Nick Minchin&#8217;s point of view there will ensue a small tussle between the hard right of the Liberal Party represented by the mad monk, Tony Abbott or possibly, all-time funny man Kevin Andrews and the &#8220;popular front bencher&#8221; and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Over 18 months ago the fearless poetry spouting leader of the ABC, Mark Scott made quite a splash about another jewel in the Ultimo crown, a so-called continuous news centre. This worthy initiative was mean to herald a 24hr news service to all Australians, not just those who are prepared to pay for Sky News. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hot of the screen, here&#8217;s a presser from the Friends of the ABC. Looks like a negotiation position, the libs will drop the &#8220;restriction on the appointment of former politicians etc&#8221; if labor drops &#8220;the staff-elected director position&#8221;. Can&#8217;t have staff on the board, must keep the workers in their place. I can smell a [...]]]></description>

The Institute of Public Affairs is well funded right wing think tank that specialises in spewing out free market libertarian thought bubbles that frequently find their way into the mainstream media.

In response to a question in a Senate committee the other day [...]]]></description>

Does the goanna, a metaphorical name complete with illusions of tough sun-leathered skin and reptilian cunning, secretly harbour some poetic sympathies? Could it be envy that speaks when the goanna observes - Poetry, of [...]]]></description>
