True Colors

Chalk up one reason to go against charter change with the people running the government.
Here’s the plan:
1. Attack the Senate to make is appear it sorely needs to be abolished. This accomplishes two things, namely, it prepares the people to actually want charter change. Also, it diverts the people’s attention away from [...]
