This is the personal blog of Ian Ker, who was Councillor for the South Ward of the Town of Vincent from 1995 to 2009. I have been a resident of this area since 1985. This blog was originally conceived as a way of letting residents of Vincent know what I have been doing and sharing thoughts on important issues. I can now use it to sound off about things that concern me.

If you want to contact me, my e-mail is still ian_ker@hotmail.com or post a comment on this blog.

Spinning With Spurious Pictures

Fascinating how pictures can be used to 'spin' almost anything. The Metropolitan Local Government [so-called] Reform Update is headed by four feel-good images that have absolutely nothing to do with local government amalgamations. In fact, three of the four images could easily be seen as promoting the values of the local in local government, which goes totally against the amalgamation agenda. The fourth (on the right) is taken from in front of the Casino or Golf Course looking towards the City of Perth, one of the highly-contentious areas - to be taken from the Town of Victoria Park and gifted to the City of Perth and the site of the equally-contentious new football colosseum.
