WE ARE OUT THERE - LOOKING - LOOKING - LOOKING.

Dont recall ever sending an email to a newspaper or whatever before but the Sept 26 WESTSIDE NEWS in Brisbane got me going. Its the story of a barrister who sees an $8 cabinet while hes op shopping and then sees a woman at the front claiming its only a couple of bucks, He decides shes changed the label and tackles her in the carpark and hauls the whole deal back into the shop. gets her details and reports her to the police. In amongst this he makes sure he gets his little white cabinet for $8. Get a Grip Barrister Julian.

Heaven forbid I have this nit picker up against me in court. The saviour of society. Why on earth did Westside News give this one so much space on the page ?

So - sent an email - maybe she was a rotter and just maybe she wasnt. But i reckon the $8 barrister IS a rotter. (Then again as the Chick found out when she encountered Centrelink's FRAUD SQUAD - you don't get legal aid if the Commonwealth Government charges you Just barristers like Julian up against you. Tucking their little cabinets under their wings , giving your details to the P-O-L-I-C-E who couldn't care less that white haired pensioners have snuck away with twopence halfpenny whilst harming noone at all ) and wiping their little hands - JOB WELL DONE BARRISTERS! Another Little Person brought to justice.

Just a note re the whole front page spread about the barrister and his $8 cabinet. I don't know who the woman was. Nor do I know how much money she makes a year . "Possibly" not as much as our barrister. Pensions come in well under $20000 per annum. A single social security benefit even less. I don't know either what a Battler is supposed to look like. If she had any shred of dignity left after walking into an op shop - as the Salvation Army stores area manager so rightly said - "desperate enough to do silly things " I don't imagine she has much dignity left after our barrister accosted her in the carpark. Nor would she do so after seeing her story on your front page. Maybe she was a preying thief or maybe she was a desperate mother looking for something for a home she's trying to put together after escaping a violent marriage. I don't know. And nor does he. Perhaps she makes very sure she doesn't look like a battler when she goes out. Perhaps we could tattoo centrelink numbers on our foreheads and be done with all our pride and self respect in one go.

What I do know is that a Barrister is unlikely to really be in need of an $8 cabinet that could go to a home who can't afford more than that. What I don't know is whether said Barrister felt inclined to hand over an extra $20 or so to the Salvos . Enjoy your cabinet Julian - there is a side of life out there other than the one we were presented with on Sept 26 of fiendish women ripping off charities for no good reason. Maybe we could ask ourselves Why was the woman that

desperate ?

Thumbs up to Ian Harrison and his charitable eyes and thumbs down to the Barrister.
Why did you give him so much space on the front page ?

Nell Bell.

And I'm saving this in the Lost Women section because we really DON'T know who the Thieveing Woman was. She could well be a real baddie but what is her lost life - I wonder. Why was she in that shop jiggling prices ? what happened to her when said barrister accosted her and took her details ? My DOS , when she heard about Peters Ph D on Melinda Kendall - said - AH THATS IMPORTANT - thats for all the lost lives of women. All the hidden one and the seemingly wasted ones. Here's another one for you ? Who were you O woman in Salvo's Carpark. What made you change that price tag ? What has happened to you now that Julian has shamed and tarred and feathered you in Red HIll ?
