Guess what? Jeff Kennett lives still. This ancient monolith is on TV occasionally spruiking his past self and his then govt "policies".
His magna blunders has stuffed Victoria, and infected the latest cabal
of politicians. Those lucky enough to live in other places but
Victoria do not suffer from Land Tax, an impost so severe it's likely
to induce a stampede northwards over the Murray. It's too bad to be
borne, 'fer chrissake!
