Albert Langer, Michael Hyde and Kerry Miller have written a collective obit to Jim Bacon in The AGE 2 July 2004. Jesus - if poor old Jim the smoker had really thought what these turgid correct line old style lefties believe he would never have made it to Premier of the Harradine state. I suppose The AGE needs all the readers they can get but is there really more than about 5 old Marxist-Leninists left in Melbourne (or the world for that matter). Sadly its the sort of writing that makes Andrew Bolt look kinda literate. The piece says they have set up a web site http://www.jim-bacon.org/ but as of tonight they haven't managed to propagate the DNS or they have no content.
Albert of course runs the website http://www.lastsuperpower.net/. I guess I would be corrected and be told that its actually a collective that runs the site. Albert is claimed to be Australia's first political prisoner.
