    He has voluntarily taken on the burden of spokesman for our battle, he is an amateur enthusiast without the benefit of being groomed or paid for TV work and I think he did a fucking amazing job representing our cause under such circumstances.

    I'm sure he'd be up for an aide to take a bit of the heat off, Pm him asap and volunteer will ya, sheesh.
    Oh bugger

    What we need is a 10-15 minute spot (or more) where we put all our arguements across... without interference... including the arguement that ACC aint broke.... to cover all road accidents it would only coast $100 a vehicle... there are other ways and places of put theACC levy

    ie put an ACC on traffic infringment, and even on the WOF

    Other than that well don Ixion

    That doesn't make him the best man for the job.

    Believe me, we are in a position where we need the best person we can find.

    hey Hey Hey ..........settle the fuck down eh, Ixion challenged the highly paid ACC DOCTOR extremely well........Ixion Manned up to a challenge which would make any normal bloke pack his pants in 5 secs, he did bloody well and left me feeling we as bikers won the round, especially with the "we tried to do that but you wanted $10k" in relation to information release.

    If anyone has got anything negative to say DONT, just shut the fuck up and give the guys some well earned Kudos or dont say anything!!

    So you'd rather we just give up and roll over until Brad Pitt comes along to do the job for us?

    Les is doing an admirable job so far - hell, he's more photogenic than both of our ugly mugs, what's the problem? He ain't a professional news anchor, waste-of-space (read: politician) - it's not reasonable to expect him to function like one.

    I trust him. Well, except with any bottles of beer lying around. But other than that, I trust him to do his best for us.

    Les did a great job of chairing a great meeting last night, but he is not the confident public face that our campaign needs on TV.

    Les did a fukin good job, he flumuxed the ACC doc on his own figures and made him look decidedly uncomfortable.

    I dont see anyone else putting there hand up to publicly represent us.
    However there is the usual wingers and those first in line to put others that try down. Dont listen to them Les they are all full of fuck all.

    Talk about trying to be as popular as a fart in a lift!

    Given that Ixion was having to deal with a COMPLETE twat reporter with a complete innability to listen (obviously good reporting credentials) he did marvelously. Given his contribution throughout this forum, I tend to think there arent many others I would want above him as a representative.

    You on the other hand sir, have made a rather short sighted cunt of yourself...not dissimilar to the aforementioned reporter.

    Les did a brillant job. He looked like my dad the average working man, which is a very strong place to be when taking on ACC and did not look like some prick in a suit.

    He caught out the ACC Dr telling lies on national TV.

    By the end the media was clearly on our side.

    BULLSHIT, he did extremely well, the fact he wasnt a smooth talking young stylish handsome broadcaster moulded into a corporate attack dog was to our advantage, he presented well got the points across and cut the ACC down suitably given the short time frame, Ive seen more media savy people get less through in a short time than Ixion on many occasions.

    Fuck Im pissed with this thread, KB is now offically to big and to full of dickheads. At a time when we should be united and supporting our own we have this BS to contend with !!

    Les (Ixion) is a very intelligent man, every biker should be greatfull that he is on our side, I watched him head the BRONZ meeting last night, possibly the biggest they have ever had. He looks rather meanicing with a little hammer in his hand I must say..
