THAT [L]-WORD THAT COMES WITH MISSED UNDERSTANDINGS

 

political spin ... politics

Political spin, in politics, the attempt to control or influence communication in order to deliver one’s preferred message.

Spin is a pejorative term often used in the context of public relations practitioners and political communicators. It is used to refer to the sophisticated selling of a specific message that is heavily biased in favour of one’s own position and that employs maximum management of the media with the intention of maintaining or exerting control over the situation, often implying deception or manipulation.

In the political context, it is often associated with government press conferences in which it is understood that the press secretary or the government official has a vested interest in communicating a political message to have a desired outcome, often to the neglect of delivering the full truth of a situation. In such situations, the press conference room is sometimes cynically referred to as the “spin room” and the schedule of briefings as the “spin cycle.”

SADLY IT HAS COME TO THIS

Now the [L]word is passing lips but its meaning is being toyed with. If something has been 'lost' it's gone, it's missing, it's no longer there to use, it's been squandered, it is bloody well lost! Its not recoverable and maybe its can be covered but not covered up or recovered.

Here it is our hard earned  $$$$$ your money, my money, our money, our rates, our fees paid, our opportunities lost, out the bloody window, down the freakin drain.

We should not allow ourselves to be fooled by fools. If this was a movie it would/should be classified AO:

• PLOTLESS HORROR MOVIE
• MACHLAVELLIAN MOCKUMENTORY
• AMATEUR HOUR PRODUCTIONS Pty Ltd.
• SURREAL PERFORMERS AND PERFORMANCES
• CLOWNS A PLENTY

but somehow some infantile SPINdoctor gets to write the bloody scripts and they are unconvincing and just should not pull an unprepared crowd. 

The acting is OK but that SPINdoctor cum SCRIPTwriter, well she needs to be dismissed forthwith along with all those who feed her with lines in that darkened room. 

It is all too MEDIevil and true to type.  It will not, no, cannot, be delivered on time and on budget. 

So, the investors who backed this project way back when, well they have done their dow good and proper. It is time to move on.

Good people get hurt, children get to be deluded and all the while the thieves and rouges prosper. 

SO, action stations Minister, do your stuff and save the good citizens who are being and have been held to ransom. It is your job and it is there to be done! 

It's worst time but it is the best time! It''ll be a far far better thing that you'll do than you have ever done!

GO TO IT COBBER!
