efficient solution

Ambulances are ramping outside our major public hospitals.

We can't get people organised for mass covid inoculations.

Large weddings, funerals and Anzac Day gatherings are banned under covid restrictions. Meanwhile, football stadiums are packed with 25,000 screaming (or booing) fans.

We should ramp those ambulances outside the stadium. While footy fans are queuing to go in -- give each fan a covid jab.

Solve several problems all at once.

There are no republicans

Dirk Botje (Letters 14/4 is worried about the republicans saddling up their war horses. Not to worry, Dirk: there are no republicans.

There are only jealous, frustrated people yearning for personal power. Each has a model which, they believe, gives them the best chance of improving their own position.

There are no "republicans". Just a collection of self-interested anti-monarchists.

CEO standards

It's amazing, the standards a major company expects of its executives.

Santos has just appointed Kevin Gallagher as its CEO (The West, 13 April. Gallagher has accepted the job, with whatever terms and conditions and payments he found to be acceptable. A new "employee, ready to work for the company...

Except that Santos do not trust him. They feel that they have to offer him a bribe. Six million dollars  if he stays to do the job -- which he has already agreed to do.

Is Gallagher a notorious liar? Is he infamous for reneging on agreements? Why must he be bribed to do as he agreed?

It seems that Santos expects very poor standards from their employees. At the highest level, anyway.

Cyclone Seroja

It has to be said. And I'm the insensitive person to say it:

Cyclone Seroja. Another unwanted traveller crossing the ocean from Indonesia, soon to land in WA.

playing games

Young children play a game where one child will point excitedly at nothing, while calling out, Look there! look over there! Other, sillier children may look over there. When they look back they find that the first child has eaten the last piece of cake.

Today I watched our Premier and Health Minister on TV. They were pointing excitedly at the back of the room. They were calling out, Look! we still need to fear covid! Look! we have new rules for hotel management! Look . Look! From tomorrow we will do all sorts of new and exciting things!

I wonder how many of our sillier children made the mistake of looking away. Looking away from the real and ongoing crisis at our children's hospital.

Silly children.

Pork Barrel Plus

I agree with Ron Elliot (Letters 10/3), the constant pork barrel bidding war is annoying and confusing.

I like to keep my bribes simple: whatever is offered by another candidate, I offer the same -- plus ten percent.

Just as well I'm not running against the Sex Party. My plus-ten-percent offer might not stand up to scrutiny.

To noone. Ever

It's just a little thing. It's what we say. Without thinking.

"No one wants what happened to Diana, Ms Tame or Ms Higgins to happen to them or the women they love." (Jenna Clarke, 3 March)

It should not happen to any woman. Nor to any man. Whether we love them or hate them or have never even heard of them.

It should not happen to anyone. Ever.
