Thank you, Rob, this has been a real service to the community and to democracy.
I hope that the outcome of the general and local election will be what is “meant”. I am one of those who would like the incoming government immediately to request an audit from the IMF because that is the only way the electorate will ever learn the true economic situation (which I happen to believe is far, far worse than we have been told). However, whichever party gets into power, in the coming years we are all going to have to be far more self-reliant and kind to one another, to make deceit and political point-scoring and obscenely large salaries socially unacceptable; individual people are more important than party politics.
