THE OPPOSITION

In their own words

OK, we surrender...

tasmaniantimes is admitting defeat in its experimental strategy of publishing a reasonable selection of "opposition" Press Releases ... because the site has been inundated by every pollie on the planet stretching back to Ozymandias....

Thus, just occasional PRs - which in the selective wisdom of TT - are worthy or particularly relevant, will be published...

We do however, wish to provide the service of linking readers to "opposition" websites so readers can read the words of wisdom there:

Here's the Greens:
WHAT THE GREENS RECKON ... the latest Press Releases

Here's the THE LIBS' website:
WHAT THE LIBS RECKON ... they don't post press releases

And here's THE DEMOCRATS' website:
WHAT THE DEMOCRATS RECKON ...

Meanwhile, speaking of Ozymandias, herewith Percy Byshe Shelley's observation on all emperors amd would-be emperors...

I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert ... Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed:
And on the pedestal these words appear:
'My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on these works, ye Mighty, and despair!'
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
