Remember the great orators of old. These men stood on the platform on Main street and spouted their stuff fearing nothing. Fearless venom like Mick Moran, the wonderful orator that was Paddy Lyndsay, the champion of the small farmer Joe Blowick and even in more recent times the messiah himself. I remember a man of small and burly stature wearing a blue shirt predicting the down fall of that corrupt organisation the PMPA (pronounced A as in Adam not any americanisation). Now we have nice, quietly spoken politicians but who will remember them in years to come.
