Down Under Dissent

Real life is interfering somewhat in the past couple of days with various work and other commitments, and a Ruby Murray with our now retired ex-accountant beckons this evening, hence the sparse content this week.

In the meantime, you may be interested to see this first TV appearance by Tim Andrews of the Australian Taxpayers' Alliance on the plain packaging issue down under. Tim - who I have met on one brief occasion in London last year - is a reader of this 'ere blog and therefore, I am honoured to be able to claim, is an antipodean fellow jewel robber.

For a newcomer, I think he did very well. Nice one, Tim.
