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.

What Community of Interest? Lisa's Dummy Spit

Perth Lord Mayor, Lisa Scaffidi, is clearly trying to make it impossible for the Local Government Advisory Board to recommend either the State Government's or the City of Vincent's proposals for incorporation of most or all of Vincent into Perth. There is clearly no 'community of interest' from the point of view of the City of Perth.
Perth Voice, 9th November 2013
At the same time, however, by being so confrontational she makes it difficult for the LGAB to recommend the City of Perth's asset grab. The City of Perth's proposal is so clearly mere asset-stripping that the LGAB could not possibly recommend it as it leaves a supposedly unviable rump of Vincent that would, presumably, be just as much of a drain on Stirling as it would on the City of Perth - if Lisa is to be believed.

Can't have it both ways Lisa.
