http://savevca.org/archives/900 The VCA is in Danger... help with SaveVCA Fri, 16 Sep 2011 06:04:29 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 http://savevca.org/archives/900/comment-page-1#comment-235 Mushroom Sun, 18 Apr 2010 06:01:36 +0000 http://savevca.org/?p=900#comment-235 Negative feedback from commissioned surveys has never been a problem for Glyn Davis, it is simply locked away and forgotten (when possible), or otherwise ignored and the public blanketed with PR spin. As chair of the VCAM review, Ziggy has helped Glyn by removing the terrible publicity relating to the VCA and UoM from the front pages of the newspapers while still allowing Melbourne Model 'reforms' to continue, apparently unabated, at the VCA. Since Ziggy never once complained about this, one must assume the worst. But even if the review has some criticism, the findings will be treated by Glyn in the same way as the in principle agreement with the state government on how the VCA should be managed: like it never happened. Just who is Glyn responsible to? Certainly not to his buddies on the UoM Council, and the Brumby government will try to stay out of it, as they have with the fiasco at the Monash synchrotron. Who is left to stand up to these guys?
