Frankston ‘ignored’, needs cash
Blanket appeal
WINTER is coming. Knitters are busy stitching up blankets for needy Frankston residents as part of the Food For All Winter Blanket Appeal. Bendigo Bank in Thompson St, Frankston has partnered with St Vincent de Paul to put the word out and collect blankets, rugs for needy families, the elderly and the homeless. Knitters can pick up donated wool from the bank branch, make squares from donated wool and stitch them together into colourful blankets to be dropped back to be distributed to those in need throughout the winter months.

FRANKSTON mayor Darrel Taylor is torn between two emotions: support for the newly released Plan Melbourne document and disappointment that it doesn’t come with a commitment of government funding to ‘anchor’ future progress. Despite being given the rather grand title of metropolitan activity centre in the plan, he said the city lacked the necessary state investments to back up its nominal status. “It’s a rather hollow name,’’ he said. And it doesn’t generate the much-needed confidence among developers and investors which is holding the city back, according to Cr Taylor. “Most projects here are not government funded, and so we have $200 million in potential residential and commercial investments in the city centre ‘sitting in the ground’ and being held over through lack of confidence.’’ Describing Frankston as a ‘blank canvas for renewal’, Cr Taylor said it desperately needed a major government body to be relocated or established to anchor redevelopment. Ideally, this would bring in an extra 500 people and at least $80 million in building works. It would complement the planned relocation of South East Water. He said the relocation of a large government body – such as VicRoads’ move to Ballarat – would help turn things around. “The government is not putting anything in but is expecting the private sector to come in and cover for them,’’ he said. The problem is compounded by the city “coming off a very low base’’. “We have been overlooked and ignored for a very long time and we need significant infrastructure funding. There has been $1 million here and $1 million there but this has not given us any certainty.

“We need a clear plan to lift confidence but how many times have we seen plans come and go? We need significant government funding but so far I haven’t seen it.’’ Cr Taylor said Frankston had obvious potential, for example, in tourism, but it was “desperate for funding certainty’’. He said a realistic target amount was $200 million over five years. “They should announce it, give everyone certainty, and provide a framework of support. Over the past few years, Frankston has looked on enviously as neighbouring activity centres Dandenong and Ringwood received $200 million and $150 million in development grants, wondering ‘What happened to us?’” Cr Taylor said. It’s a frustrating exercise: “We promote the message that we are ‘open for business’ and we have gone from being reactive to proactive in our efforts to attract new business,’’ said the mayor, who has a Masters in Business Administration and is a graduate of the Australian Institute of Company Directors. “The CEO and myself have gone interstate to talk to potential newcomers - we even place ads on 3AW!’’ “Plan Melbourne marks Frankston with a star on a map for urban renewal, for the station and for our potential. It sounds grand but we can’t do it on our own. “I think it’s a good document and it’s well overdue. It sets out a clear plan and focuses on us achieving our full potential, but putting us down as a star on a map and yet not investing in us is underdone. “If that investment doesn’t happen we will stay as we have for the past 30 years.’’ Planning Minister Matthew Guy says metropolitan activity centres – like Frankston - will play a major service delivery role in government, health, justice and education. They are described as servicing a subregional catchment which, in Frankston’s case, includes the Mornington Peninsula.

Cabin park eviction threat looms Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au THE threat of eviction hovering over some Seaford Beach Cabin Park residents has temporarily eased but worried occupants still face an anxious wait to find out whether Frankston Council will push ahead with plans to build a car park on crown land where 20 cabins are currently housed. There are 71 cabins in total on the site. Council acting CEO Gillian Kay wrote to affected residents to advise evictions would not take place at the end of June this year, and council and the Salvation Army would work to help people relocate before the end of March next year. Cabin park owner Michael Hibbert told The News residents had sent “over 400 letters” to councillors about their plight but not one councillor had even visited to discuss the issue. He said 40 families faced eviction since many of the 20 cabins on the Crown land were duplex units. “Councillors have neglected the people they’re supposed to represent,” Mr Hibbert said. The Seaford Beach Cabin Park is housed on freehold and Crown land, and part of the Crown land has been leased off council by Mr Hibbert since 2009. Council has advised Mr Hibbert it intends to end this lease. He said council was trying to make the situation “personal” and had targeted him personally, telling residents he had planned to shut down the cabin park anyway and build apartments there (‘Residents forced

out, The Times, 12/5/14). “There was a previous application to build 51 units but it is no longer my intention to do any building works on the site,” he said. Mr Hibbert said “a previous business partner” had signed the planning permit application that was rejected by Frankston Council last year. Council rejected a land swap proposal, involving the handover of “prime Nepean Highway land for a
parcel of land, at the rear of the cabin park, which backs onto Kananook Creek”, according to Mr Hibbert. In a bid to resolve the current accommodation crisis for the 40 families affected, many of whom are low-income earners, Mr Hibbert has now offered to sign a covenant that would prohibit any building application submission for ten years. “This will give most of these under privileged residents a security of
tenure not normally afforded to them,” he said. Worried residents have banded together and have launched a campaign to urge Frankston Council to continue leasing the Crown land “that provides the valuable low cost housing to the disadvantaged families at the Seaford Cabin Park”.

All the voices: The Soweto Gospel Choir will perform live at Frankston Arts Centre next month.
Choir gets back to the source The heavenly voices of the Soweto Gospel Choir will delight audiences at the Frankston Arts Centre on Sunday 29 June. They will sing in celebration of life and in honour of the late South African president Nelson Mandela. In recognition of his passing, the choir will dedicate their concerts to his memory with a section of freedom songs and his favourite hymns. The Grammy Award winning choir was formed in 2002 and has on many occasions performed for, and celebrated with, their Patron, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, and Mandela and, on his passing, sang in services around the world celebrating his life. These included the televised memorial service held in Soweto attended by President Obama and world leaders, a memorial for the Mandela Foundation in New
York with President Clinton and Morgan Freeman, and most recently, at Westminster Abbey as part of the Queen’s service attended by President Zuma and Archbishop Tutu. Other artists to have their work enhanced by the choir include Bono and U2, Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, Robert Plant, Celine Dion, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Peter Gabriel, Josh Grobin and Andre Rieu. But it all started here in Frankston in 2003 with their first ever-ticketed performance at the arts centre. From the streets of Soweto to the streets of Frankston felt like a long journey 11 years ago. And it was. But, since then, Soweto Gospel Choir has gone from being unknown to being heralded around the world as one of the great vocal ensembles. To book phone 9784 1060 or thefac.com.au

Retiree loses everything to online love scam By Chris Brennan A FRANKSTON South retiree has been left homeless and heartbroken after being swindled out of her life savings in a sophisticated online love scam. Carole Ross, 64, lost more than $200,000, including all of her superannuation savings, after being duped by a “love interest” she met through an online dating website. “This has destroyed me,” Ms Ross said. “I’m emotionally distraught and financially ruined; I’ve lost my home, all my retirement savings, and my car is about to be repossessed. My life is ruined.” While well aware of the dangers of online dating and romance scams, Ms Ross never thought for a moment that her new found “soul mate” had been anything but real. After all, they’d shared an intensely passionate relationship over almost ten months, melding their futures - and finances - together in preparation of a promised “ever after”. Wedding bells were in the offing, the culmination of a whirlwind, fairtale romance that was set to fulfill the recently retired health care worker’s deepest longings. Not only was “Alex” attractive and considerably younger than Ms Ross, he was also very well off. She would never have to worry about money again. “If only I could have my time over again,” Ms Ross said. “It’s so obvious now that it was too good be true, but when you’re in the middle it, of all this passion and excitement, you don’t stop to think that it could be anything but real.” The saga began last August when a

friend suggested she try to get back into the dating game by signing up to a dating website. She’d been separated for many years and was soon to retire from her longterm job with Peninsula Health’s Mt Eliza Centre to a life of “relative comfort”. A loving relationship was the one missing element in her life. After putting up her online profile, it wasn’t long before she received a response from prospective suiter, a “well educated, sophisticated gentleman” who claimed to live in London. They had much in common and plenty to talk about, especially with her being from England originally.
They even shared a mutual friend - the same person who’d suggested Ms Ross try the website. Ms Ross never suspected her new beau might have mined details of her life from Facebook. “We’d talk every day – twice a day - on the phone,” she said. “We’d talk about everything. He was very sophisticated, well-educated and wellspoken. “We had a real connection and things quickly became more and more romantic.It was passionate and exciting. I told him things I’d never told another soul. I really thought he was the one.” “He told me he had a young son but his wife had died in a car accident about five years ago. He’d been devastated by her death and it had taken until now to be emotionally ready to try dating again.” Their relationship grew steadily deeper and Alex soon committed to moving out to Australia to be with her. She had finally found “the one” just in time to ensure her golden years truly were everything she had dreamed of. “He told me how he couldn’t believe he’d met someone like me, that he’d never met anyone like me before and that I was the person he was looking for. It was a whirlwind romance, very passionate, and I never suspected it was anything but true love.” “It was like a fairy tale and I was head over heels in love with this person, whoever he was.” With more than enough money for them to both live comfortably ever after together, Alex convinced Ms Ross to leave her job so she could concentrate her time and energy on getting
everything ready for his impending arrival in Australia. That meant she was able to release her superannuation savings, which she planned to live off until he joined her. Not long afterwards, things started to go disastrously awry. The date of his planned departure kept being delayed as one problem after another struck. Then there was a “big business deal” that needed to be completed before he could join her, a lucrative transaction involving a shipment of cars for a fleet buyer in Ukraine. He had to travel to the troubled country to seal the deal. But as a sign of his commitment to Ms Ross, and to assist in him resettle in Australia, the payment for the deal would be put into a bank account set up in her name. There was even an online banking site showing the amount of $990,000 assigned to Ms Carole Ross. Of course she couldn’t access it - yet. Then everything fell apart. “Corrupt” Ukranian police officers were demanding bribes (could she help, please, as he was able to access his own money). She’d need to wire him $6000, then $10,000 then another $10,000. Then she was informed by a “lawyer” that Alex was in jail after an altercation with another corrupt official. There were more legal payments and fines she’d have to pay to help him get out. Then further expenses appeared, this time tied up with the business deal in the form of official government taxes and fees on the bank transfer. As it was now “her” money - how
could she not but agree to pay up or risk losing it all. It wasn’t long before Ms Ross had exhausted her finances - $200,000 in all. But Alex and his Ukranian friends still had one more surprise: a late penalty fee of $49,000 was now required to release the $990,000. Of course it was her fault the fee was being applied as she hadn’t sent enough money fast enough. If she didn’t pay, they’d never see their big pay day. In desperation, Ms Ross turned to a financial adviser to try to raise the required funds. It didn’t take the business and banking expert long to smell a rat. A bit of digging revealed the image of “Alex” was a well known profile used in multiple international scams, a stolen identity now being peddled by numerous scammers. Luckily, Ms Ross didn’t raise the $49,000 to hand over to Alex. Despite confronting him, Alex still insists everything is legitimate. She is the one who screwed everything up by not handing over the rest of the money. And he’s the one who’s heart is broken. And there’s still a chance everything will work out, if only she can come up with the rest of the money. If only. “It’s horrible realising you have been deceived,” Ms Ross said. “I still find myself wondering ‘what if he is telling the truth’ but then I catch myself and realise how crazy that is.” “I never thought anyone would be able to scam me like this, but this just shows, it can happen to anyone.”

PRIME Minister Tony Abbott made a flying visit to the Mornington Peninsula two days after the federal budget was unveiled. Mr Abbott was not on a mission to make the case to the voting public that his governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s controversial cost-cutting budget was for the long-term economic good of the nation, preferring to address Liberal Party supporters behind closed doors. The PM attended an evening post-budget Liberal Party fundraising dinner at Mornington Racing Club on Friday 16 May. The party faithful paid $95 each to attend a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Post-Budget Dinnerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x153;hosted byâ&#x20AC;? Flinders MP Greg Hunt and Dunkley MP Bruce Billson with Mr Abbott a guest speaker. Non-Liberal Party members could pay $125 to attend the dinner, with all money raised on the night making its way into party coffers. A two-course meal was served up as Mr Abbott
dished out his thoughts on â&#x20AC;&#x153;staying the courseâ&#x20AC;? to try to get the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s finances back into surplus. The function was held in the Mornington Racing Clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Gunnamatta Room which can seat up to 550 guests for a banquet booking. The Times understands the dinner was a sell-out, raking in tens of thousands of dollars for the Liberal Party. Mr Billson said he appreciated the Prime Minister taking the time during â&#x20AC;&#x153;a very busy weekâ&#x20AC;? to visit the peninsula and speak to â&#x20AC;&#x153;those interested in hearing him talk about the budgetâ&#x20AC;?. He said the event was â&#x20AC;&#x153;keenly pricedâ&#x20AC;? to allow as many people as possible to attend. Post-budget dinners to raise funds for political parties are an annual tradition, with Labor Party opposition leader Bill Shorten also chowing down with party members in Canberra to raise money after he gave his budget reply speech on Thursday 15 May.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Experimentalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; as anything Ballam Park Primary School pupils enjoyed their role in an â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;experientialâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; environmental education program run by 130 Monash University undergraduates over the past few weeks. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s given them an insight into their school and the wider world surrounding it. And it will culminate in a Learning Activity Expo today (Monday) featuring 70 five-minute environmental education indoor and outdoor activities set up by the Monash students with each pupil being able to choose up to 10 to try. Parents and staff from other schools are invited to whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s expected to be an action packed morning. Principal Mark Renouf said the program had been â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;â&#x20AC;&#x2122;a steep learning curve and very
hands-on but they did enjoy it. They especially found the environmental learning projects exciting.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122; The 300 pupils, in groups of three to six, enjoyed the outdoor activities, such as joining the Monash students on a tour of the school pointing out interesting features, playing environmental games, and examining habitats, such as that provided by bark on trees. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One of the aims was getting the children to think about what they have hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122;, Mr Renouf said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Monash students were at the school three days a week so there were 30 or 40 here at a time. They taught in pairs so there were 20 different activities going on at once. Each group of pupils was paired with the same students for the
whole program, developing worthwhile relationships.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122; The students planned their activities, such as herb planting, and were guided by their lecturers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The pupils loved the interaction and the Monash students provided responsible role modelling.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Environmental education is a first year education subject for those doing a Bachelor of Sport/Outdoor Recreation and a Bachelor of Education (Primary/Secondary). Its â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;experiential educationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; approach includes a schoolbased learning program and off-campus fieldwork or camp experience on the peninsula. The hands-on course ties in with existing environmental education programs, including sustainable schools.

Hospital expands as funding shrinks the
Bauer Brief
Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au THE new emergency department at the revamped Frankston hospital will be three times the size of the old one with three new wards. It was of special interest to Health Minister David Davis who last week inspected the four-storey hospital redevelopment due to be completed next year. The $80.9 million works are said to be ‘’on time and on budget’’. Standing on top of the building Mr Davis said: “The Frankston Hospital Emergency Department is one of the busiest in the state with close to 60,000 attendees each year, and this expansion will help meet that demand.” The department will have its own ambulance entry point – which is desperately needed as Frankston has the largest number of ambulance arrivals in the state. Ambulance transfer times have improved with 86.3 per cent of transfers completed within the 40-minute target this year - up from 58.9 per cent in March last year. They are expected to improve with the new development. The new emergency department will have dedicated paediatric, mental health, medical imaging with a CT scanner, and specialist treatment areas, including women’s health. But, while the hospital redevelopment may be good news for the minister, state government concerns that the federal Budget will rip $200 million out of health and education from July 1 must be galling. This includes the $7 co-payment to visit a GP – which may push more people into public hospital emergency rooms with the states footing the bill and higher co-payments for medicines. “There are immediate and significant impacts on the Victorian budget on health, concessions and potentially education,” Dr Napthine told the ABC on Wednesday. “We’re putting more money into health and more money into education. We don’t want that undermined by decisions in Canberra.” Peninsula residents will certainly be affected by the cuts. But Peninsula Health says that, at this point, it is too early to tell what direct impacts the Budget will have locally. “State and federal governments are currently in negotiations and we expect that we will receive a response from them in the coming weeks. Whatever the result Peninsula Health will continue to provide the best care possible for our patients whilst working within the means we have.’’ According to Plan Melbourne, Health is the largest single source of employment in Victoria, providing more than 330,000 jobs in 2010–11. The health and social services sector is one of the largest contributors to the state’s economy, and contributes $2.5 billion to export earnings. Emma King, CEO of VCOSS, said changes to Medicare, including the introduction of a fee for people see their GP, will make it harder for people to get the healthcare they need when they need it – particularly in rural and regional areas where access to healthcare can already be limited.”

May 2014 GREAT news from this month’s State Budget announcements that three more schools in the electorate are to get much-needed funds for refurbishment and redevelopment projects. Patterson River Secondary College will get $1 million, Bonbeach Primary School $340,000 and Kananook Primary $300,000 for their projects. This is addition to the $540,000 announced last month for Belvedere Primary, and $875,000 already given to both Seaford and Seaford North primary schools. I WAS given a fantastic opportunity to meet one of India’s most loved actors at the launch of Melbourne’s 3rd annual Indian Film Festival earlier this month. Amitabh Bachchan is a legend in the film industry, with more than 12 million fans worldwide. This wonderful event not only provides Melburnians with a smorgasbord of entertainment, but builds on the Victorian Government’s election commitment to build stronger and closer relationships with India.

“The new co-payment of $7 for each visit to a GP or to use of out-of-hospital pathology or diagnostic imaging services will stop poorer people from going to the doctor,’’ she said. “It was surprising to see that patients with concession cards and children aged under 16 will have to pay the fee for the first 10 services in each year, up to a total of $70.” She said the introduction of Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme co-payments and safety net thresholds would make medicines more expensive. “For most patients the cost of medicine will rise by $5 to $42.70 and people with concession cards will see an increase of 80c to $6.90.” Ms King said the effect of limiting access to health care – especially for people who are already disadvantaged – was a “step backward and will hurt many people across the community’’. “These changes will have a big impact on struggling families who are already having to choose between taking their children to the doctor and putting food on the table. This means more Australians will wait until they are much
sicker before they seek the medical care they need.” However, Health Minister Peter Dutton said on the ABC’s 7.30 program that references to Budget cuts in health funding were wrong. He said there would be a 9 per cent increase, year on year, in hospital funding reducing to 6.7 per cent from 2017. He disputed claims that the government was “taking $8.6 billion from the health budget’’ and that incentive payments – to ease waiting lists for elective surgery in public hospitals and improve the flow of patients through emergency departments – were not “gone’’. He said cuts would only occur “only if the states don’t achieve a certain level of activity, if they don’t have population growth in accord with the agreement brokered by (former) Prime Minister Julia Gillard. “We’re saying: ‘If you see more patients, if you do more hips and more knees, we will pay for that activity’. So, there is incentive for the states to see more patients and the Commonwealth, as I say, will meet its funding obligations in terms of that activity.’’

PROTECTIVE Services Officers are now patrolling Seaford railway station, joining those already deployed to Carrum and Chelsea stations. The new recruits brought the total number of PSOs to 70, patrolling 114 stations across the network. They will patrol the train platform, car parks and immediate surrounds to prevent anti-social behaviour, property damage, and alcohol and transport-related crime. There is no doubt officers are making a difference. Since their initial deployment in February 2012, PSOs have issued more than 20,000 infringements at stations across the rail network. LOCAL councils have been encouraged to apply for grants of up to $25,000 to prevent and remove graffiti from their neighbourhood. Graffiti is a blight on local neighbourhoods and the government is serious about responding to community concerns about this vandalism. These grants help to improve the visual amenity of neighbourhoods and increase community confidence in the safety of public places. To be eligible for the anti-graffiti funding, councils are required to enter into partnerships with local community groups. REMEMBER that June is Bowel Cancer Awareness Month. The fact is that one in 12 Australians will be diagnosed with bowel cancer by age 85. It affects men and women, young and old and is the second largest cause of cancer deaths in Australia. But if caught in time 90 per cent of bowel cancer cases can be successfully treated. Let’s make a vow to talk bowel, and raise awareness about the importance of early detection.

Agitated about being brandedâ&#x20AC;&#x2DC;agitatorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; I AM concerned about the recent strategy by the State Government and Frankston MP Geoff Shaw to refer to those who oppose the Frankston railway precinct redevelopment as â&#x20AC;&#x153;agitatorsâ&#x20AC;?. I have seen this word used by both Geoff Shaw and Terry Mulder (the Victorian Minister for Transport) in a number of forms to describe any opposition â&#x20AC;&#x201C; namely the Frankston Community Coalition â&#x20AC;&#x201C;to the $13 million dollar Frankston Railway Station redevelopment. I personally find the word â&#x20AC;&#x153;agitatorâ&#x20AC;? to be an abhorrent descriptor of a group which is comprised of many stout-hearted defenders of Frankston: among them; a former mayor, a former school principal, a prominent local business operator and a tireless community volunteer. Yet these valued residents are curiously lumped with the negative connotation of being â&#x20AC;&#x153;agitatorsâ&#x20AC;?. We (apparently) live in a pluralistic society where free speech and free association is encouraged. The Frankston Community Coalition, and any person or group that disagrees with this proposed redevelopment, does not deserve to be referred to as â&#x20AC;&#x153;agitatorsâ&#x20AC;? which is what Mr Shaw and Minister Mulder have proceeded to brand them. Just because individuals or groups do not agree with government policy does not make them, by default, â&#x20AC;&#x153;agitatorsâ&#x20AC;?. Rather, it makes them â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;engagedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;concernedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; residents that have risen above apathy to actually give a damn about what is going on in their municipality. To my knowledge, the Frankston Community Coalition has thus con-
ducted itself in a persuasive and professional manner. The staple of any liberal-democratic society is â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;political freedomâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; which is what groups like the Frankston Community Coalition are actively exercising. Whatever agitation Mr Shaw and Mr Mulder detect from both the local council and groups like the Frankston Community Coalition emits from the frustration that the proposed $13 million dollar refurbishment of the Frankston railway precinct is simply not good enough. It fails to responds to the competing challenges that accompany an end-ofthe-line railway precinct which is a regional conduit to both the Mornington Peninsula and Cranbourne. It also fails to address local concerns in relation to the correlation between the railway station and perceptions of safety. The visual and physical impact of the railway station on Young Street, and the presence of the many methadone facilities bordering the railway precinct, are neither comprehensively addressed in the $13 million dollars committed. . I suggest that the State Government revise its harsh and frankly unnecessary depiction of local opposition to what are outcomes which are unbecoming of community expectations.

Proud crowd: Firefighters, nurses and paramedics united to door-knock in the Frankston electorate to let residents know they are unhappy at state government emergency services service cuts. Picture: Gary Sissons
Fired up over services cuts Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au FIREYS, nurses and paramedics have ramped up their campaign calling on the state government to honour preelection promises to boost emergency services funding. Hundreds of emergency services workers gave up their free time on Saturday 17 May to door-knock homes in the Frankston electorate to tell residents they believe Premier Denis Napthine has â&#x20AC;&#x153;failed Victoriansâ&#x20AC;? thanks to â&#x20AC;&#x153;health and emergency services cutsâ&#x20AC;?. The door-knock campaign was organised by the Victorian Trades Hall Council. Campaign officer Luke Hilakari said â&#x20AC;&#x153;Denis Naphine has failed Frankstonâ&#x20AC;?. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Frankston hospital is critically short of beds and there are 1505 patients
waiting for life-changing surgery in Frankston alone,â&#x20AC;? he said. Mr Hilakari said a lack of beds at Frankston hospital meant ambulances were often forced to wait to unload patients, causing emergency response times to blow out to â&#x20AC;&#x153;critical levelsâ&#x20AC;?. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Before the last election, Denis Napthine and the Liberal party promised to deliver 800 new beds in Victoria. To date, they have only delivered 43.â&#x20AC;? State health minister David Davis visited Frankston hospital just days after the door-knock campaign, on Wednesday 21 May, to inspect progress on a $80.9 million four-storey expansion of the hospital. Mr Davis played down concerns about ambulance ramping times at the hospital, and said ambulance transfer times had improved with 86.3 per cent of transfers completed within a
40-minute target this year, up from 58.9 per cent in March last year. Ambulance Victoriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s statewide target aims to have at least 90 per cent of ambulance patients transferred to the care of hospital staff within 40 minutes. The United Firefighters Union has slammed the state government for failing to honour a pre-election pledge to hire 342 additional firefighters in the aftermath of Black Saturday in February 2009. Fireys carried banners and wore T-shirts bearing the slogan â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Napthine Slashes, You Burnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; while visiting Frankston residents to discuss emergency services funding. Health and emergency services are set to be a focal point in the lead-up to Novemberâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s state election. Frankston is a marginal seat, held by just 489 votes by independent MP Geoff Shaw.

Former mayor back on beat Chris Brennan chris@baysidenews.com.au FORMER mayor Kris Balom is back serving the Frankston community but this time he’s dropped the politics and is taking a far more hands-on approach after signing on as a Protective Services Officer. After being elected Frankston’s youngest ever councillor in 2008 and then the city’s youngest mayor in 2011 , Balom placed a firm focus on policing issues and public safety, particularly around the city’s much maligned public transport hub (see letters, opposite). But the daily grind of politics became frustrating so Balom decided to opt out of bureaucratic wrangling in favour of “serving and protecting” the community directly, while also studying for a university degree in international relations. He graduated as a PSO in 2012 and has been on duty since then at stations including Dandenong, Oakleigh and Moorabbin. With his recent posting to Frankston and Seaford stations, Balom’s career has now come full circle. While he says he couldn’t be happier with his decision to change his career direction, his return home has reignited his interest in local issues and politics. “I don’t miss the bureaucratic red-tape but I do occasionally miss making a difference and driving reform,” he said. “There were other things I needed to do with my life, so I had little reticence in handing the reigns over to someone else. I think it was the right call at the time.” He said he was proud of his performance on council and hasn’t ruled out getting back into politics somewhere (“far”) down the line. “The fire in the belly is still there but it hasn’t been purposefully stoked for some time now,” he said of a possible return to politics. “I think the council made some brilliant

inroads, particularly on public safety and getting outstanding projects on the move. “However, in retrospect, there were some other important issues we could’ve gone harder on and I tend to ruminate now and again on those.” But the nature of politics, with its egos, hidden agendas and power games, was a major turn off he said. “I think most of us have that Machiavellian instinct within us, some more than others. I find many politicians start out with fine intentions but over time those intentions gradually corrode in favor of maintaining or growing their power base. Power has enormous reach and scope.” His experiences as a PSO and the feeling of making a real difference are certain to keep him in the job for a long time to come, Balom said. “I’ve learnt an enormous amount about myself and my capabilities,” he said.

Amnesty demands rights answers Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au AMNESTY International delivered a petition to Dunkley MP Bruce Billson last week highlighting concern at the federal government’s treatment of asylum seekers. The human rights group has demanded the government respond to its This Is Breaking People report on “cruel and humiliating” conditions at the Manus Island detention centre detailed by Amnesty International investigators who visited the Papua New Guinea facility late last year. Federal small business minister Mr Billson agreed to meet Amnesty International peninsula branch members Kevin Bain Jodie Linz last Wednesday (21 May) to discuss their views about offshore processing of refugees. The duo and other volunteers gathered more than 500 signatures at Mornington market for petitions to be handed to Mr Billson and fellow Liberal MP and member for Flinders, Greg Hunt (‘Petition brings asylum seekers home to MPs’, The Times, 14/4/14). Mr Bain said a lot of people are angry and disappointed at successive governments’ policy of “demonising” asylum seekers. The Amnesty pair met with Mr Billson for about 40 minutes. Mr Bain said Mr Billson made “no apologies for their [asylum seekers’] treatment”. “Bruce believes the group of people [at Manus] have tried to bypass the [immigration] system,” Mr Bain said. “Things don’t seem to have

changed much at all since Amnesty International highlighted the human rights abuses there.” Mr Billson told The Times the Amnesty representatives had raised the availability of psychiatric help for detainees as an issue that needed to be investigated and he would pass on their concerns to immigration minister Scott Morrison. He blamed the previous Labor government’s “lack of control of border protection” for encouraging detainees now held at Manus Island to “undertake the hazardous and potentially deadly trip to Australia by sea”. In February this year several asylum seekers detained at Manus
Island were injured during unrest inside the confines of the detention centre. A 23-year-old Iranian man, Reza Berati, was murdered during riots at the centre and a PNG police investigation has failed to identify the culprits amid allegations PNG guards hired by contractor Transfield on behalf of the Australian government were involved. Mr Billson said PNG authorities were still conducting “further investigations” into the incident. Transfield is paid more than $61 million per month by the Australian government to manage the Manus Island detention centre, and replaced previous contractor G4S in
February after the riots. Refugees at Manus Island have accused G4S security guards of attacking them with rocks and iron bars during the February night of violence at the detention centre. Mr Bain said the peninsula branch of Amnesty International will also meet with Labor MPs in the coming weeks and months to try to find a humane solution that would see refugees detained at Manus Island have their asylum claims processed in a quicker time frame. He noted “the Manus solution” was introduced by the previous federal Labor government and the human rights issue was “beyond politics”.

Club donation a cut above THERE was a buzz in the air when Karingal Bowls Club handed over its latest community donation to Frankston’s SES unit earlier this month. The club raised about $6000 to buy six new chainsaws for the volunteer emergency service workers to use when helping Frankston residents Frankston SES controller Brian McMannis said the unit was grateful for the bowls club’s generosity in buying the chainsaws which
replace some older models needing to be replaced. “We’re using the new chainsaws at every opportunity in emergency situations where fallen trees, for example, need to be cleared,” Mr McMannis said. Karingal Bowls Club mens president John Tarr said the club’s board decided to support the SES since they did so much good work for the community.

Audiences have some more AUDIENCE favourite Mike Fletcher is returning to the Frankston Arts Centre stage for Peninsula Light Operatic Society’s June season of Oliver! Audiences will remember him in such favourites as Patsy, the noble king’s assistant, in the society’s season of Spamalot. Another favourite was his cameo performance as the jail guard for which he received a Victorian Musical Theatre Bruce Award. Audiences also loved his performance as the MC in Cabaret. Mike’s portrayal of Mushnik, in Little Shop of Horrors, had audiences once again under his spell.
Now he is rising to the challenge of bringing to the stage a character with many facets - and making the role his own. He is enjoying the interaction of his role with the 22 children making up Fagin’s gang of pickpockets. And he is thrilled to once again team up on stage with Cameron Sweatman who plays Sykes in the production. PLOS Musical Productions season of Oliver! begins on Friday 20 June at the Frankston Arts Centre. For tickets visit www.plos.asn.au or call 9784 1060.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Somerville ladies thrown from gig; Empire Day celebrated Compiled by Cameron McCullough MR J Nott Marsh left on Tuesday for Tasmania, where he has gone on a business trip. *** MESSRS A Patterson and A Gerschwitz proceeded to Sydney on Monday, where they intend spending a few weeks’ holiday. The marriage of Mr H Lloyd and Miss Hanton is announced to take place on the 10th of next month. *** THE many friends of Mrs A Foster, of “Beachleigh” who recently underwent a serious operation will be glad to learn that she is now well on the road to a complete recovery. *** A PICTURE show was held in the Mechanics’ Institute, Mornington, on Wednesday night last, in aid of the funds of the Mornington Football Club, and was very well patronised. *** A FULL yarding of cattle of all descriptions is advertised for Messrs A. Scott and Co’s usual monthly sale at Tanti yards, which will be held on Monday next. *** MESSRS Brody and Mason will hold an unreserved clearing sale of household furniture and sundries on Wednesday next, on account of Mr W. A. Mohr, who is leaving the district. The sale will be held on the premises, Hastings Road, Frankston. *** THE Rev R Jackson, who has been laid aside by illness for some weeks past, has so far recovered, we are pleased to note, as to be able to again
take up his duties, and the congregation was pleased to see him again in the pulpit on Sunday evening last. *** WE regret to hear that Mr A E Gault, of Somerville, is still seriously ill, and his condition is causing his many friends considerable anxiety. He and Mrs Gault proceeded by train to Adelaide on Wednesday, where he will be under the care of his uncle, Dr Gault. *** THE Frankston Choral Society was well represented at their usual weekly practice on Monday night last, when there were 40 members present thus giving the conductor much encouragement in his work. Mr Frederic Earp conducted for the first time, and showed great tact and zeal in his effort to maintain the best quality of singing from the society. *** THE annual sale of gifts for the support of students in New Guinea, in connection with the Frankston Methodist Church, was held on last Saturday afternoon and evening. There was a fair attendance, which would have been considerably larger had not the weather been so threatening. However there was a fair amount of business done, the proceeds being not much short of that taken last year. *** MRS J and Miss L Thornell and Miss E Westaway, of Somerville, had an unpleasant experience several days ago whilst driving in a gig to Mornington. They had proceeded about two miles on their way when the pony trod on a loose piece of metal, causing it to fall, and throwing the occupants on top of the animal, which, fortunately was very
quiet. Mrs Thornell was laid up for three days through the severe shaking and shock. Misses Thornell and Westaway suffered slightly from shock. Messrs K Webb and E Meldrum went to their assistance, and the latter drove them home sprayed with mud. ***
Mrs Tute spoke of the power of the British Empire, its vast extent and its varied peoples. She referred to her residence in India, Britain’s greatest dependency, where 300 million of the King’s subjects attest the genius of the British race for government
A PLEASING function took place at the Methodist Sunday School on Tuesday evening last, when the local branch of the Christian Endeavor Society held a social evening for the purpose of bidding good bye to Mr E and Miss Hill, who are leaving the district to take up their residence in Melbourne. The Rev R Jackson, on behalf of members, in a few complimentary remarks, made Miss Hill a presentation of a silver serviette ring and to Mr Hill of a pocket wallet, as souvenirs of their connection with the Society. A short programme of songs and recitations was gone through, in which
Miss Croskell, Miss Gale, and Mr Ellis took part. the rest of the evening being devoted to parlor games. An excellent supper terminated a most enjoyable evening. *** FINE weather favored the Empire Day celebrated at Rosebud on Friday, 22nd May. In the morning the scholars, under their teacher (Mr Perrin) assisted by the members of the school committee and a number of parents and friends assembled in front of the school to perform the ceremony of saluting the flag, followed by three hearty cheers for “King, Queen, and Empire.” The gathering then proceeded into the schoolroom, which was gaily decorated for the occasion. Here interesting addresses were delivered by Mrs Clifford Tute (late of India) and Mr Alexander, J P. Mrs Tute spoke of the power of the British Empire, its vast extent and its varied peoples. She referred to her residence in India, Britain’s greatest dependency, where 300 million of the King’s subjects attest the genius of the British race for government, and dwelt on the pleasure it gave her – an English woman – to have the opportunity of addressing the children of this happier “Britain beyond the Seas,” where real want or poverty was unknown. Mrs Tute concluded by emphasing the need for the British nation throughout all the King’s s dominions being a united people if the greatness of the Empire is to last. Mr Alexander reminded his audience that they were on historic ground, for but a few miles distant was the site of the first settlement, so soon aban-
doned by Captain Collins, whose lack of prophetic insight was proved by Victoria’s present prosperity. He impressed on the scholars that the future destiny of this great land of Australia lay largely in their hands, to make or to mar, accordingly as they grew up noble men or women, or the reverse. A programme of Empire Day songs, recitations, and essays was then given by the scholars, each of whom received an Empire Day medal and a bag of lollies, while the best essays were rewarded with book prizes. After a hearty vote of thanks to the speakers the morning’s proceedings terminated with the singing of the National Anthem. In the afternoon, a programme of races etc. was gone through, and tea and refreshments were served to the large gathering by the ladies, to whom a hearty vote of thanks was accorded. The assemblage then sang the National Anthem, which brought to a close a successful and enjoyable function. *** MORNINGTON v. FRANKSTON; The above teams met at Mornington on Saturday, when the locals again had a full 18, while Frankston were very poorly represented. The play was fairly even after the first half, but in that time the damage had been done, and Mornington ran out winners with a substantial majority. Owing to the lateness of starting, the latter part of the game was played practically in darkness. Punctuality in starting should be strictly enforced. and the defaulting team or teams should be made to pay a heavy penalty. From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 30 May 1914

FOOD & ENTERTAINMENT
The rise and fall of a fatback idiot box By Stuart McCullough SOMEWHERE along the line, things got seriously out of whack. Once upon a time, home cinemas were the exclusive preserve of those who had indoor bowling alleys and monkey butlers. Not anymore. The default setting for television sets is now ginormous. It used to be the only time you saw a screen that big, it was surrounded by world leaders and they were watching a threatening message from some mutant super-villain demanding a mega ransom. Now people routinely sit and watch old episodes of Gardening Australia on screens that swallow their living room wall without so much as a second, third or even fourth thought. Things have changed. Just as a really expensive watch is water resistant to three hundred metres, my father is change resistant to a far greater depth. Flat screens are not for him – he likes to rock it old school style. In the hands of others, his approach to technology would be considered a masterful postmodern statement steeped in irony rather than a refusal to accept that the world has moved on. That he is slow to embrace the new is no bad thing. But there comes a point when confronting change becomes inevitable. There’s an old saying: if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. My father, however, takes a more extreme approach and refuses to admit that something is clapped out and busted, even in the face of overwhelming evidence. It’s a trait that I have inherited. A couple of years ago, I was driving through Healesville when an unholy noise that sounded like a cross between
two pieces of metal arguing with each other and the last Lady Gaga album screamed from beneath the bonnet. But despite such a symphony of disaster, I vehemently denied there was anything wrong right up until the moment that smoke and flames and a catastrophic loss of power rendered my denial somewhat redundant. In the corner of my father’s living room it sits. Once it would have been considered large. Now it would best be described as a Tyrannosaurus TV; an absolute dinosaur. It occupies a space in a wooden cabinet. Grey and shaped like a small hippopotamus, it’s kind of like a shrine. But age has wearied it, just as age does all of us at some point. If there’s a program you want
to watch, you must factor in some vital ‘warming up’ time and turn the set on early. But no amount of time will save it entirely. Even if given a decent period to gather its thoughts, when a picture emerges, it is with a distinctly greenish hue. I’d go so far as to say everyone on screen looks as if he or she is part through transforming into either the Incredible Hulk or Kermit the Frog. Not that my father would ever admit as much. We decided to take matters into our own hands. My father was away for the weekend and we decided to make a decisive move. But there were some challenges, not least of which was the fact that whatever we bought had to fit into the existing cabinet. Replacing
his television was one thing; throwing out his cabinet and drilling holes into his plaster might transcend thoughtfulness and be interpreted as a declaration of war. We headed into Frankston. It’s been ages since I’ve bought a TV. A few things became clear very quickly – firstly, it’s no surprise that people mostly have gigantic televisions these days because that’s the only size in which you can buy them. It’s like wandering into one of those clothing shops that caters solely to the plus-sized person. The world has turned to the ‘Solway’ brand of thinking in which the sizing starts at ‘really big’ and just gets bigger. Smaller TVs aren’t made for the living room. Instead, they’re made for the bedroom,
The link between food and behaviour HAVE you ever wondered if what you are feeding your child is affecting how they behave? Many parents are starting to notice the difference that removing food additives, colourings and preservatives can make but for some children, the problem is more extensive than that. Some children react to naturally occurring food chemicals that can be found in many healthy foods. Reactions can occur up to 48 hours after exposure, making it difficult for parents to connect the behaviour to the foods eaten. Children who react to food chemicals may display symptoms such as: hyperactivity poor bladder control (including bedwetting) digestive problems eczema or other skin conditions headaches or migraines aggressive behaviour sleeping problems nausea Salicylates, amines and glutamates are three food chemicals that may cause issues for children. Salicylates are the most common of the three to cause problems. They are found in many foods, including a large number of fruits and vegetables, herbs, spices, honey and yeast extracts. They can also be found in cosmetics, flavourings and some medica-

the pantry, the thunderbox and whatever other nook or cranny people think they can’t survive without a TV. But these were too small for the cabinet. The next size was, alas, too big. In Goldilocks terms, we needed the one in the middle that was ‘just right’. It was the last of its kind – the final remnant of a discontinued line, the likes of which would never be seen again. Not so small that it would be swallowed by the gaping cavity of the cabinet and not so big as to not fit in. It was, in a word, perfect. But only upon our return to Tyabb did the enormity of the task we’d taken on become apparent. To install the new flat back television, we first had to remove the old one. I tried to move it forward in the cabinet without success. With all my might, I dragged it. As it sailed over the lip of the wood and the full burden of TV took hold of my shoulders, I realised that this thing might well weigh more than my first car. In its place, we plugged in the new set and tuned it, making sure everything worked as it ought to. After hours of effort, our mission was complete. I’ve never felt so proud. He rang, of course, to thank me. In the next breath he asked whether my brother had helped. I was insulted. As an adult, I am perfectly capable of installing and tuning a television by myself. Especially if my wife does all the difficult stuff. Suddenly flatter than the screen in my father’s living room, my pride felt like a fat-backed idiot box, cast upon the nature strip of life. But that’s okay. Sometimes you need to consider the big picture. A task now that is now easier than ever. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

tions (such as aspirin). Amines are in fermented foods, cheese, chocolate, canned fish, bananas, avocados and tomatoes. Glutamates occur naturally in foods such as tomatoes, yeast extracts, soy sauces and cheeses, and are also added to foods in the form of MSG. Isolating the problem foods can be very difficult as children may react to more that one group of food chemicals, and many foods are high in multiple food chemicals.
If you suspect your child may have a food intolerance problem, it is always best to seek the advice of a qualified health professional before removing any foods, as they can advise you on how to ensure your child is still getting a healthy, balanced diet.

Embarrassing defeat raises serious questions PENINSULA INTERLEAGUE By Toe Punt PENINSULA league coach Stevey Ryan believes that unless the league’s governing body, PCN Sports Alliance, gets behind representative football, the competition will go backwards. Ryan made the claim in the wake of the Peninsula League’s 85-point belting at the hands of Geelong Football League at Simmons Stadium on Saturday. Whilst the 21 players who represented the league did their very best, they were no match for the Geelong FL, who dominated from start to finish to win 18.18.126 to 6.5.41. Peninsula League was held scoreless in the final quarter and booted just two goals in the second half. Ryan, along with assistant coach Troy Shannon, led the team to a memorable win last season to earn the right to challenge for the title of number one country football league in the competition. However, despite the importance of the occasion, players, clubs, coaches,
officials and most importantly, the governing body, failed to provide the necessary support for the Peninsula League to be at their best. Eight players pulled out of the team in the week leading up to Saturday’s match. Another pulled out on the eve of the game, however, he is expected to line-up against Pines this weekend. The same thing happened last year in terms of the lack of commitment and support from players and clubs, however, it was masked by a great performance from those who represented the Peninsula League team. Ryan said it was time for everyone from the top to the bottom to take representative football seriously. “The recruitment of quality players to our competition depends largely on the performance of our league on the big stage,” Ryan said. “If we can’t get players, clubs and the league to support the country championships, then the competition will go backwards because we won’t recruit the very best talent.” Ryan said Geelong Football League
epitomised what representing your league was all about. “Their (Geelong FL) clubs made a commitment to representative football at league and club level, they have been training as a group since before the season started and they even trained with the Geelong VFL team in preparation,” Ryan said. “The result of all that was a super impressive performance from the very best players in their competition. “We were no-where near them, which is a shame when you consider it was one versus two in terms of leagues. “They simply blew us away and were a class above. “To our boys’ credit, they gave their all and even with our very best team, things would have been tough. “We’ve just got to decide whether we as a competition want to commit to interleague football or not. “If it wasn’t for Pines, Edithvale, Mornington and Frankston YCW Football Clubs supporting the concept this year, we wouldn’t have fielded a side. “Blokes like Ash Eames and Byron
and Anthony Barry have nothing to gain from playing interleague football but they put up their hand and give everything. “Where’s the support from everyone else? Blokes are pulling out with one week hamstring injuries! “I hear that certain clubs and players have an issue with myself or Troy Shannon, but this is about playing with the best in the competition and representing your league. Build a bridge and get over it, really.” “It’s got to start from the top to be successful and planning needs to start now,” Ryan said. Ryan also supported the concept of appointing coaches that can devote the time and effort to the task. “You need a team of people who know and love the league and are not involved at club level. “It’s tough to coach a club and to do this, especially when you’re ringing blokes to play up to the eve of the game, as well as not having the necessary support from the top “We are left to our devices and we do the best we can with the time we have.
“I’ve made written recommendations to PCN Sports Alliance about it and do you think I have heard back? (This scribe was also asked to write recommendations to the league last season and never received a reply). “I’m not sure why we are all expected to care about it so much when those at the top don’t support it the way they should.” Mornington’s Warwick Miller was outstanding for the Peninsula League at half back, Edi-Aspendale’s Stevey Mannix was superb, the two Barry boys led from the front and Angus Scott, who spends his time between Casey and Edithvale, was also very good. Lachy Wallace, who spends time between Collingwood in the VFL and YCW, was also prominent. Ash Eames had some hamstring soreness but Steve Ryan was quick to take him from the ground and never put him back on. “Eamesy wasn’t going to make a difference to the final result so it was important to ensure he was right for his club this weekend,” Ryan said.

Classy Nepean too strong for Central Murray overshadowed in the ruck, his athleticism and domination around the ground was a highlight of the match. Dromana’s new 6.11’ recruit, Blake McGrath, looked as though he was going to kick a big bag of goals after he booted two and handed Poholke he’s first major in the first 10 minutes of the game. The score line was five goals to one in the opening quarter. Nepean league coach Ben Holmes wanted more voice on the field in the second quarter from his charges and asked for McGrath to be left one-out in the square with fellow key forwards Poholke and Red Hill’s Jarryd Douglas to play higher up the ground. However, Nepean League started to get cute with the footy in the second quarter, which allowed the fired-up Central Murray to boot three unanswered goals and get themselves back in the content. Former Collingwood-listed player Toby Thoolen was providing a handful for the Nepean defenders. The margin at the long interval was 15 points. The third quarter was much of the same as the second. Central Murray came out fired-up, kicked the first of the quarter and reduced the margin to seven points. It was like Nepean League was waiting for a challenge. Poholke took the game by the scruff and along with Terry Wheeler, Symes and Berry, were able to regain their stronghold and turn a five-point margin halfway through the term to four goals at the final change. Despite Central Murray kicking the first goal of the final quarter, Nepean League dominated from that point on and ran away with a 39-point victory. The under 18s had a big win, booting 24.14.158 to 8.12.60.
NEPEAN INTERLEAGUE By Toe Punt DESPITE an under strength Nepean League team going into battle at Rosebud’s Olympic Park on Saturday, it proved far too strong for Central Murray FL on Saturday. Nepean League dominated in the opening and last quarters to run out comfortable 16.12.108 to 9.15.69 winners. Central Murray FL got with two goals on a couple of occasions late in the second quarter and got within five points in the third, but they were no match for the locals when the game was there to be won. It was no surprise that Nepean league won the match, even without a full strength line-up. Nepean League had just 12 players at the first training session. The lack of support from players and some clubs again highlighted that the support of the interleague concept is far from great, which is a direct reflection on the governing body, PCN Alliance, along with its member clubs. Dromana and Rye were very well represented with five and four players respectively each in the team, while Red Hill and Crib Point had three each. That’s three quarters of the team from four clubs. The match as a spectacle never reached any great heights, other than the performance of Sorrento goal kicking machine Leigh Poholke, who finished the afternoon with seven goals. Justin Berry was superb throughout the contest and highlighted his appetite for interleague football, while Crib Point’s Waide Symes and Red Hill’s Josh Mold provided a lot of run and grunt around the footy and run through the middle of the ground. While skipper Rhett Sutton was
