Democrats Crisis Linked To Port Arthur ?
---
27 July 2002 - The crisis that has just unfolded in the Australian Democrats with Senator Meg Lees resigning after lashing out at Senator Natasha Stott Despoja's autocratic leadership raises the question were issues related to Port Arthur involved ?
As reported on this site last year Meg supported a Port Arthur inquiry refering a victims complaint to then Senator Woodley who after his letter was placed on this site agreeing to one suddenly resigned from Parliament
( refer this page ) .This website believes he was forced to resign by those who were behind Port Arthur as part of the ongoing coverup.
At the same this website found proof Natasha ( left ) seemed to have knowledge and was backing those behind Port Arthur in statements she made in a media release in 1998 -
( refer this page ). She stated the guns laws following Port Arthur "were not a knee-jerk reaction" and how the work on them was done well beforehand. She indicated how the States needed the massacre to focus on them.
This website asks the question is part of the reason Meg spat the dummy with the Democrats because she is upset over what was done to Senator Woodley and because of Natasha's support for those behind Port Arthur ? And was it Natasha the one who saw to it Woodley had to go ?
Given that Meg eminates from the old style true Democrats formed by Don Chipp in 1977 who were mainly dissatisfied Liberal supporters and Natasha eminates from the leftist ALP element that infiltrated and have taken over the Democrats in the last 15 years its not surprising this conflict has arisen.
The fact also Natasha was understudy to former Senator Cheryl Kernot ( who defected to the ALP and just happened to be having an affair with ALP Minister Gareth Evans ( who was behind the ALP antigun push since 1979 ), and her campaign manager was none other than Michael Lavarch - the Federal Attorney General in the last Keating Govt - in charge of ASIO and a close associate of none other than Duncan Kerr ) raises question about Natasha's agenda and credibility - and all that would justify Meg's concerns and actions.
