Who has the skills?
This is a very good idea however, who, in Government, is skilled at listening and compromising?
What is needed is a high level political communicator…
Alas, what we have is John "the flummoxer" Howard. How can we forget his mess attempting to delineate spicy soups and terrorist groups.

There is a third way. This could work!
The people of Mayo could vote in the Independent candidate – Brian Deegan. He’s a proven communicator. As an added bonus he brings credibility and passion for the job.
Australia gains a negotiator and loses an idiot!
Fabulous!
