LARRY WHIPPER for PEOPLE POWER: recission defeated

WELCOME TO PEOPLE POWER.

Thank you for logging in. For People Power 2016. Check out our Larry Whipper People Power Team Website.

If you care about environment, social justice, ethical economics and community, particularly if you live in the Southern Highlands of NSW, you have come to the right place. I would ask you to join me in my work to bring these values into play in the Wingecarribee Shire, by increasing awareness among Councillors and decision makers at all levels of government.

As it has been said " no man (or woman) is an island entire of itself. We are a part of the whole" None of us live in isolation. Every action has a reaction, and so it is my belief that together we can bring about changes in the way we interact with each other and our natural environment. But I do need your help.

It is my intention to stand again for the Local Government Election in 2008. I need your help to achieve this. I need your support to continue to work to maintain the integrity of our Shire. I need your help to continue to fight for the future and advocate for the things that matter to you, your children and their children...

Come and join me in this quest and bring your friends along. It is my hope that we can make this a meeting place where ideas, can mix together to create positive and effective outcomes.

A place where we can work together to bring about social justice, raise environmental awareness and encourage economic decisions based on compassion and integrity.

recission defeated

friends, the recission motion to stop reclassification of public land until at least after the poll at the next election was soundly defeated at the last council meeting. clr jim mauger went against his previous support for our original motion to vote against the recission. myself, clr clark and clr sara murray were the only ones to support the recission. from this it would appear that other councillors are not really concerned about peoples concerns about losing their land. it is a great concern that they are so fixated on teh leisure centre, right ot wrong. i will bring a motion back again in three months time, which is the soonest i can do so. it seems that the council electrion on the 13th of september is our last chance to correct the imbalance and really make sure the community's concerns are heard.

I was dreaming in my dreaming of an aspect bright and fair and my sleeping it was broken but my dream it lingered near in the form of shining valleys where the pure air recognized and my senses newly opened I awakened to the cry that the people / have the power to redeem / the work of fools upon the meek / the graces shower it's decreed / the people rule The people have the power The people have the power The people have the power The people have the power Vengeful aspects became suspect and bending low as if to hear and the armies ceased advancing because the people had their ear and the shepherds and the soldiers lay beneath the stars exchanging visions and laying arms to waste / in the dust in the form of / shining valleys where the pure air / recognized and my senses / newly opened I awakened / to the cry. Where there were deserts I saw fountains like cream the waters rise and we strolled there together with none to laugh or criticize and the leopard and the lamb lay together truly bound I was hoping in my hoping to recall what I had found I was dreaming in my dreaming god knows / a purer view as I surrender to my sleeping I commit my dream to you. The power to dream / to rule to wrestle the world from fools it's decreed the people rule it's decreed the people rule LISTEN I believe everything we dream can come to pass through our union we can turn the world around we can turn the earth's revolution we have the power People have the power ...

But together we can open our heart, cloak the earth and become a part of something much bigger.

Adeline Virginia Stephen VIRGINIA WOOLFWriterJanuary 25, 1882 - March 28, 1941'Now I will walk, as if I had an end in view, across the room, to the balcony under the awning. I see the sky, softly feathered with its sudden effulgence of moon. I also see the railings of the square, and two people without faces, leaning like statues against the sky. There is, then, a world immune from change. When I have passed through this drawing-room flickering with tongues that cut me like knives, making me stammer, making me lie, I find faces rid of features, robed in beauty. The lovers crouch under the plane tree. The policeman stands sentinel at the corner. A man passes. There is, then, a world immune from change. But I am not composed enough, standing on tiptoe on the verge of fire, still scorched by the hot breath, afraid of the door opening and the leap of the tiger, to make even one sentence. What I say is perpetually contradicted. Each time the door opens I am interrupted. I am not yet twenty-one. I am to be broken. I am to be derided all my life. I am to be cast up and down among these men and women, with their twitching faces, with their lying tongues, like a cork on a rough sea. Like a ribbon of weed I am flung far every time the door opens. I am the foam that sweeps and fills the uttermost rims of the rocks with whiteness; I am also a girl, here in this room.'from The Waves.
