Nature takes its course JUST when the bar was lifted on being able to visit children’s playgrounds (subject to COVID restrictions) nature intervened. Tom Salt Park, at Rosebud, left, resembled a water-filled theme park on Saturday after heavy overnight rains. Many parts of the Mornington Peninsula are seen as being in jeopardy of inundation if climate change predictions are realised. Maps of the peninsula’s flood prone areas are available on Mornington Peninsula Shire’s website and, in November 2018, it adopted a three-year climate change strategy to help the community to become:  Resilient to the impacts of climate change.  Aware of the associated risks.  Actively involved and supported to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions.  Prepared for the future. On Tuesday 25 August the shire adopted a climate emergency plan and last week the mayor Cr Despi O’Connor and her colleague Cr Sarah Race participated in a Labor Partyarranged online forum on climate change. “Shire praised as Labor explores climate change” Page 5

Eating out adds to summer menu Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au DINING out on the footpath and car park spaces turned into “parklets” will again be part of summer trading on the Mornington Peninsula. Mornington’s Main Street, from the Esplanade to Barkly Street, will be closed to traffic from 17 December to 1 February, with restaurants and cafes being able to extend outdoors.

“Restaurants and cafes were [earlier this year] thrilled to be able to serve more people while still complying with regulations after months of being closed,” the mayor Cr Despi O’Connor said. “We surveyed all businesses in Main Street and 67 per cent voted to close Main Street again,” Cr O’Connor said. “We are looking forward to seeing the street filled with people dining, shopping and listening to music. “The repurposing of some car park-

ing spaces at shopping areas is a small sacrifice to make in order to protect and promote the economic recovery of our local food businesses that have had to close their doors for months this year.” Cr O’Connor said research had shown that foot traffic generated a higher spend than vehicular traffic. “The more people who come to our shopping precinct for food, the more likely they are to spend in retail businesses,” she said. “We will make sure

there are still the required number of carparks for people with disabilities and that access is maintained on the footpaths.” The council has allocated $10 million towards its COVID-19 economic recovery in the 2021/22 financial year and. This includes $650,000 to re-establish the outdoor dining and township activation program from October to April next year. The shire is also waiving $1 million in fees and charges this financial year,

NEWS DESK Hot spot sparks call to test and get the jab A SOLICITOR’S office in Suffolk Street, Rosebud, was declared a Tier 1 COVID-19 hot spot last week after being visited by a suspected active case. The Chief Health Officer Brett Sutton advised that anyone who attended Alpass & Associates, 10am-4.30pm, Thursday 26 August, immediately get tested and quarantine for 14 days. Meanwhile, Mornington Peninsula Shire is urging residents to “get the jab as soon as you can”. “Once 70 per cent of Victorians have had at least one vaccine dose the state government has said it will look at easing restrictions,” it said in a statement last week. Vaccination reportedly reduces the risk of getting COVID-19 and protects sufferers against becoming very sick. Symptoms can include fever, coughing, sore throat, shortness of breath, runny nose, headache, loss of sense of smell, altered sense of taste, loss of appetite and fatigue. To get vaccinated residents should call their GP to check if they are offering vaccinations or speak to their pharmacist. Call the vaccine hotline 1800 675 398 or visit coronavirus.vic. gov.au/vaccine to book a vaccination Vaccination hubs are at Frankston Community Vaccination Hub, Bayside Shopping Centre; Rosebud Clinic; Suite 5, 1533 Point Nepean Road, Capel Sound; and Rosebud Respiratory Clinic (now Peninsula Vaccination Centre), 1391 Point Nepean Road, Rosebud, call 0436 033 507. For further advice call the 24-hour Coronavirus hotline 1800 675 398, your GP or use the state government's online self-assessment tool. Testing is free if done through a public health centre or GP offering bulk billing. These include Rosebud Hospital; Frankston Hospital; Atticus Health Medical Clinic, Hastings; and Rosebud Respiratory Clinic. Stephen Taylor

Anti-vaxers moved by fine threat ABOUT 30 anti-COVID vaccination protesters and one dog quietly stood outside Mornington Peninsula Shire’s Mornington offices on Tuesday last week. Mornington Police Senior Sergeant Paul Edwards described the gathering as being well-behaved and resembling a “group of middle-aged residents getting out for a coffee”. Senior Sergeant Edwards said members of the group disbanded after he warned that unless they moved on, they would be issued infringements for breaching the Chief Health Officer’s regulations. “About 95 per cent were wearing masks and, if they weren’t, they were offered one by police or allowed exemptions because of underlying health issues,” Senior Sergeant Edwards said. He estimated the average age of the protesters was mid-50s. In the days leading up to the protest, pamphlets had been distributed at Mornington and Mount Martha, claiming the efficacy of the vaccines was unknown and that they were untested and

used to “track and trace you, exactly the same as in China, getting you ready for vaccine passports where you will be under total control”.

Fines for rule breakers LOCAL Area Commander Inspector Terry Rowlands said 28 infringements had been issued for breaching pandemic restrictions on the Mornington Peninsula since 28 August. These were for not wearing a face covering, having no valid reason for being out, and group gatherings, including fines for eight people at Crib Point who “decided it would be a good idea to hold a barbecue”. “Some people are ignorant of the Chief Health Officer’s directions and to those people I only have one thing to say and that is expect to receive a fine,” Inspector Rowlands said. “These restrictions are in place to keep the community safe and it’s the selfish few that tout the restrictions which place many in jeopardy of catching the virus.”

that the “cure is worse than the disease”. “If you are not sick, why would you let a stranger inject an unknown, untested substance into your body,” the pamphlet stated. “Especially when it doesn’t stop you getting COVID, and doesn’t stop you spreading it? What’s the point?” The pamphlet claimed censorship was stifling scientific debate and covering up the number and degree of adverse reactions and deaths. It said masks “don’t work – in fact they are dangerous [as] we are supposed to breathe oxygen”. “There is a 97 per cent recovery rate from COVID-19 and an 80 per cent failure rate of the vaccine,” the pamphlet stated, before demanding to know why hydroxychloroquine and “other known treatments” had been banned. The medication was controversially recommended by former President Donald Trump as a cure for the disease and subsequently dismissed by medical experts. The pamphlet also claimed COVID-19 was “just a flu” being peddled as part of a “planned global takeover”. It said QR codes were being

The Shire inspects private land for fire hazards in the leadup to summer and during the declared fire danger period. Where a fire hazard is identified, landowners are sent a fire prevention notice issued either under the Country Fire Authority Act 1958 or the Fire Rescue Victoria Act 1958 to remove the fire hazard by a specified date.

To assist owners with carrying out the work, the Shire includes a fire management contractor list with each fire prevention notice. The list will also be published on the Shire’s website. Work required can include slashing grass and weed or vegetation removal. Contractors must follow COVIDSafe practices and State Government advice around COVID-19 restrictions.

Shire praised as Labor explores climate change Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire has been praised, the state government “acknowledged” for its progress and the federal government criticised for its lack of action on climate change. The contrasting responses to the three levels of government were voiced last week (Tuesday 31 August) during an online climate forum organised by Mornington Peninsula Labor Environment Action Network (MP LEAN) - a “grassroots network of Labor members and supporters”. The forum was sponsored by Labor MP for Nepean Chris Brayne. Guest speakers included the mayor Cr Despi O ’Connor, Cr Sarah Race, Dr George Mihaly of Merricks winery Paradigm Hill, Stephen Todd of Volt Farm and Kerry Macdonald co-convenor of MPLEAN. Cr Race called on the federal government to urgently legislate for a zero emissions reduction target by 2040, which she said would strengthen the renewable energy target and promote financial support for proven renewable energy options. She said the federal government should legislate to “mandate zero emission houses and to ensure the national construction code requires net zero emission homes now, rather than 2030”. The shire says it has been preparing for the potential impacts of climate change for 10 years and in August adopted a climate action plan, one year after declaring a climate emergency. Dr Mihaly said the impact of climate change had “led us at times at the end of a vintage to thinking we should just crawl up into a foetal position”.

“It is just heartbreaking and the emotional impact of some of the [climate] changes have just been devastating.” Dr Mihaly said insurance had been “the first industry in Australia that seemed to have caught on to the [commercial consequences] of climate change having commercial consequences”. “Despite there being a no claims history, in some years we have had 100 per cent plus premium increases, and these have been coupled with increased onerous obligations that the insurance companies have placed on us even just to renew insurance - such as establishing 24/7 smoke detection monitoring back to base, despite it being ineffective,” he said. Ms Macdonald said questions and issues raised at the online forum’ 70 participants would be sent to Energy, Environment and Climate Change Minister Lily D’Ambrosio “as part of the state government consultation process into the impacts of climate change”. “There was praise for our shire, acknowledgement of the progress made in many areas by the state government and utter dismay at the lack of action by the federal government,” Ms McDonald said. She quoted an Australian Conservation Foundation (ACF) survey finding that “63 per cent of voters in the Flinders electorate believe that action on climate change is a very important issue for the next federal election”. “The weight of scientific opinion in the form of the latest IPCC’s (International Panel on Climate Change) report supports voter concerns. The report makes it very clear that we need to act more urgently if we are to avoid catastrophe.”

Front yard figures that care SCARECROWS have always been associated with taking care of food crops and numbers of a much friendlier version, carecrows, are popping up across the Mornington Peninsula. A peninsula-based Carecrow Club formed during the state’s sixth COVID lockdown is urging householders to make and display a carecrow in their front yard to lift spirits and provide support for mental health. “It is hoped that the Carecrow campaign will lift our spirits, offer a sense of fun and community for all, and is not intended to be a competition,” Heather Forbes-McKeon, of McCrae, said. The carecrows can be made from anything

around the home, such as disposable objects, fabric, sticks, wood and plastic bottles. We don’t wish to encourage people to go out shopping for materials.” There is no size limit, but carecrows are most often 1.1 to 1.5 metres high. Ms Forbes-McKeon said the peninsula’s carecrow “campaign” started with the onset of spring and “as with the lockdown, there is no clear end date”. A promotional film is in production and carecrow is at facebook.com/carecrowclub and Instagram, add the hashtags #Carecrowclub #communityspirit #lockdownfun #scarecrows

Prayer shelved, but can be resurrected Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au THE decision to drop saying a prayer before Mornington Peninsula Shire Council meetings was made despite 33 public submissions for it to be kept (plus a further 24 after the comment deadline) and 11 supporting a pledge suggested by Cr Anthony Marsh. Despite easily attracting the most feedback of any issue concerning the revised Governance Rules, in-house lawyer Amanda Sapolu told councillors “as a result of the community feedback, it is not considered that there are any changes required to be made to the substantive Governance Rules [which do not include the prayer]”. Ms Sapolu, who is the legal and governance manager, told council in December 2020 that the wording did not matter provided it was called a prayer (“God purged from council prayer” The News 14/12/20). Cr Antonella Celi last week said the prayer had occupied “a rightful place on the agenda for 150 years [of local government on the peninsula]”. She had disagreed with the pledge being called a prayer as “it’s not a prayer if it doesn’t mention God - to God the glory”. The rules adopted by councillors

last week do not rule out a prayer or a pledge being included on the agenda in the future. At the start of council’s Tuesday 24 August online public meeting, in what could be the last time it is heard, Cr Marsh - after being asked by the mayor Cr Despi O’Connor to read the agenda item labelled Prayer - recited the pledge: “We pledge that this council will act in the best interests of the entire Mornington Peninsula community.” The pledge also mentioned making decisions on merit and with an open mind and “treating each other with respect”. In speaking about the decision to drop the prayer (or pledge) as an agenda item, Cr Marsh said, “nothing here is new”. “The prayer was said by councillors and for the benefit of councillors and for the benefit of councillors to help them in their decision making. It’s an exclusionary practice and it’s just totally mind boggling that it’s something we even talk about in a workplace in 2021,” he said. “I’m embarrassed to say that we have spent almost 20 per cent of this four-year term talking about this issue, so it’s time we put this to bed and got on with the job.” When council originally decided to drop the prayer, at Cr Marsh’s suggestion on 8 December 2020, the

National Secular Lobby (NSL) was quick to celebrate, releasing a press release that same night stating: “Tonight’s push to remove Christian prayers from council meetings at the Mornington Peninsula Shire has succeeded!” Possibly unknown to other councillors at the meeting the NSL issued a statement earlier in the day titled Decision day for Mornington Peninsula prayers. That statement said Cr Marsh was “on a mission today” and that night would “seek to remove ‘exclusionary’ Christian prayers from the official proceedings of council meetings”. It also quoted Cr Kerri McCafferty as saying it was “necessary for government to uphold the principle of secularism and to promote inclusion”. “I feel extremely uncomfortable that prayers are spoken in my workplace on my behalf and, specifically, about the work that I do,” Cr McCafferty is quoted as saying. “I do not subscribe to those beliefs. It simply isn't appropriate to assume the belief system of councillors.” Cr Marsh was criticised at the time for not mentioning his intention to replace the prayer with a pledge during his election campaign.

POLITICS

‘Voices’ raise concern among Liberals Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au THE Voices of Mornington Peninsula group says any Australian Electoral Commission investigation into its financial sources would reveal an organisation “funded entirely by kindhearted and frustrated locals who are disillusioned with party politics”. The response followed reports last week that federal Liberals had asked the AEC to make sure grassroots groups calling themselves “Voices for” or “Voices of” are obeying finance rules. “Is this a joke? A party that receives millions of dollars from corporate donors, including those in fossil fuel industries, is questioning a grassroots community organisation that values transparency and accountability,” VMP secretary Janelle Magee said. “Our democracy would be all the better for a full and frank disclosure of political funding by all political parties. “People from all walks of life donate to VMP because they want to support an organisation that aims to fix our broken political system.” Ms Magee said VMP was not a political party but “a group of dedicated local volunteers who wish to see a return to a participatory democracy”. VMP is one of 40 community groups across Australia that plan to have a “communityendorsed independent candidate” at the next federal election. Voices for Mornington Peninsula group, which is seeking a candidate to stand against Flinders MP Greg Hunt, has a donations page on its website that states it cannot accept “foreign donations” and provides a link the AEC regulations. The group originally said it would close expressions of interest by potential candidates

MEMBERS of Voices of Mornington Peninsula say they are looking forward to when they can resume their “kitchen conferences”. Picture: Supplied on 15 August but has extended that date because the federal election “now looks more likely to be closer to May 2022”. VMP says its directors will shortlist potential candidates for its members to choose their preferred representative. Across Australia 40 “Voices” groups are targeting federal Coalition MPs, including Health and Aged Care Minister Mr Hunt, who in November celebrates 20 years in federal parliament. VMP’s chair of directors, Louise Page, said “Voices” groups “run on the smell of an oily rag compared to the major parties”.

Ms Page is urging VMP members to watch director Craig Reucassel’s soon to be released Big Deal, which looks at the influence of money in politics. “I was able to watch the Big Deal ahead of its release … [and] they report that $1billion in ‘dark money’ has been received by [Australia’s] two major parties in the past decade,” Ms Page said. “That’s not total donations, it’s the donations none of us know about. Then there’s things like accounting firms giving $1m to campaigns and receiving $700m in contracts.

“[The parties] don’t even release their donations until well after elections. According to the Big Deal, we have some of the worst political donation regulations in the world. Even worse than America.” Ms Page said VMP would probably screen the Big Deal online due to ongoing lockdown restrictions. Other directors of VMP are Michael Stephens, Sean Willmore, Adrian Burrage and Ms Magee. VMP has indicated it will become involved at “all levels of government”. “With your help, VMP seeks to restore and promote a participatory democracy where community voices are represented and elected members act with honesty, integrity, and accountability. Better democracy leads to better policy and a better future,” its website states. The group says it has “VMP hubs” around the peninsula (Briars, Nepean, Cerberus, Red Hill, Seawinds and Watson) to “tailor communications and activities to their area’s particular geography, demographics and facilities”. The hub names are the same as the six wards of Mornington Peninsula Shire Council. The groups, forced to meet online, “are planning for the day they are able to get out into their neighbourhoods to chat with others, hold events and more”. Its surveys show issues for the independent candidate chosen by the group to address include the environment and climate change, over-development, aged care and transport. The group originally said it would close expressions of interest by potential candidates on 15 August, has extended that date because the federal election “now looks more likely to be closer to May 2022”. VMP says the directors will shortlist potential candidates for its members to choose their preferred representative.

A Christmas that will be like no other By Zoe McKenzie* POLITICIANS of all persuasions at all levels of government have started talking about our upcoming COVIDChristmas. With Victoria’s lockdown indefinitely extended, it has become clear the simple pleasures of life, like meeting up with friends, walking into a bar, or sitting down for a meal in a restaurant, are unlikely to return until we reach the magical marker of 70 or 80 per cent vaccination of all people over 16. Recent analysis of the rate of vaccination suggests Victoria will reach 70 per cent at the start of November, and 80 per cent by the end of November. Whether Christmas does indeed come in December, however, appears to depend on the performance of all jurisdictions. The Morrison govern-

ment has suggested we will not move to phase C under the Doherty Institute modelling until all jurisdictions reach the threshold. Given the growing gap between New South Wales, the ACT, Tasmania and the rest of the country, our “definitely-not-Freedom Day” 80 per cent attainment may not arrive much before mid-December. What happens on the Mornington Peninsula in mid-December? Our population booms from its customary 150,000 to a quarter of a million people, and probably more this year as Victorians are likely to avoid borderfrogger and stay closer to home, like they did last summer. No government has yet defined the rules of our post-80 per cent lives. Unlike other states and territories

seeming to cower behind the untested provisions of the Fair Work Act and discrimination laws, NSW has gone out and made vaccination mandatory for a raft of customer-facing professions, and also sent clear messages that bars, restaurants, hospitality and the muchvaunted vertical consumption will only be accessible to those who can prove their fully-vaxed status. NSW is already exploring a tech solution which marries the ServiceNSW check-in with Medicare’s vaccination certificates, meaning, upon check-in with a smart-phone, the patron will get a harder-to-forge good to go pass, easily shown to the venue’s gatekeeper for swift service, or at least seating. There is little evidence the Victorian government is as advanced, nor any sign that a post-80 per cent playbook

of rules is about to be circulated. When asked about their plans, most businesses on the peninsula say, “I will do whatever the government tells me to do”. Fair enough, but if double jabbed becomes the rule from early December, the testing ground for this new approach will be the cafes, bars, gyms, community clubs and public transport of the peninsula. Anyone who has tried to get a coffee on Main Street, Sorrento in January will tell you the last thing they need is an overwhelmed 15-year-old checking methodically their Medicare certificate before they are allowed to order their lattes. More jarring, however, is the shear mathematics of the situation. If double-jabbed is the ticket to ride,

drink, eat, sail, sit, then those in the AstraZeneca camp need to be jabbed today. Like actually today, in order to have their second dose the optimum 12 weeks later, and thus be “immune” by mid-December. Any parent of a 16-year-old will tell you, there’s currently no Pfizer bookings available before November, and the new 6-8 week second dose delay means they too won’t be welcome much before mid-December. Given the history of governments not thinking about the needs of the peninsula, it’s urgent we start planning for ourselves.

members have been busy over the past 12 months raising money for charities. The 33rd charity golf day in March raised $22,000 and the club hopes to run the event again next March. The Easter Flinders motoring heritage raised $28,000 for Peninsula Health to be used to buy a cardiorespiratory monitor for the special care nursery at Frankston Hospital. New president Monica Holland said despite the difficulties over the past 18 months, the club managed to donate more than $80,000 to local, national, and international causes. “Flinders District Lions Club are grateful to all the members and volunteers whose efforts enabled us to achieve such a wonderful result,” vice-president Mary Iles said.

Englishman Russell Howard packed his bags and left COVIDravaged Britain last year to ﬁlm this three-part series in Australia and New Zealand. While we grapple with a new wave of infections, it’s a fun diversion to witness the Mock The Week star have a go at sheepshearing. He also chats with Urzila Carlson.

AMERICAN MADE

9GEM, 9.45pm

All-American movie star Tom Cruise teams up once again with Doug Liman (Edge of Tomorrow) for this actionadventure biopic. Sprinkled with a dose of comedy, the script is loosely based on the true story of Barry Seal (Cruise), a commercial airline pilot who became involved in drugs and arms smuggling while working for the CIA. Seal carried out one of the largest covert operations in US history, in the process spawning the Medellin Cartel and almost bringing down the Reagan White House. Despite its historical inaccuracies, the ﬁlm is a slick ride. It co-stars Domhnall Gleeson.

After almost two months of feverishly tuning in three nights a week, the moment fans have been speculating about has arrived: the winner will be crowned. With their pride and a whopping $500,000 on the line, which contestant will leave the ﬁnal tribal council as the Sole Survivor? The spectacle of pure determination, manipulation and brute strength has seen the 24 contestants push themselves to their absolute limits. Host Jonathan LaPaglia

Shire leaders concerned by ‘groundless allegations’ We are writing to express concern about the story Shire knocks back spare land use (The News 23/8/21). The story contains false information about a vote on a motion put forward by Cr David Gill and makes groundless allegations damaging to the reputation of [Mornington Peninsula Shire] Council. Reporter Keith Platt’s claim that none of the six councillors who voted against the motion supported or even mentioned an alternative motion is simply wrong. What is worse, Mr Platt uses this falsehood to insinuate we hadn’t even read the alternative motion. If Mr Platt had watched the council meeting, or the recording of it available on the shire website, he would have clearly seen me (Cr Race) asking Cr Gill if he would accept the alternative motion. Cr Gill refused to accept the alternative motion and so there was no debate. Mr Platt made no effort to contact any of the six councillors to find out whether they did in fact support or had read the alternative motion. The story is supposedly a news item, yet it falls far short of being an unbiased report of the facts. Instead, it contains personal opinion and editorial comment, which have no place in a news story. This failure to accurately report on local events and the use of news items to convey a reporter’s personal prejudices is not in the best interests of our community. Our community deserves better. Mayor Cr Despi O’Connor and Deputy Mayor Cr Sarah Race, Mornington Peninsula Shire Council Editor: The article stated that is was “unknown” if councillors had read the alternative, but it “seems” none of them had liked it. Contrary to what the two council leaders believe (or have been advised) journalists are allowed to express opinions and articles can include comment. The author’s name appears on the article to identify who is making the assessments.

Farcical from start This has become quite apparent to the many casual observers of local government matters on the Mornington Peninsula (“‘Toxic culture’ splits council” The News 31/8/21). Since the current council was elected in October 2020, it has effectively achieved next to nothing in terms of creating meaningful policy that will have a positive impact upon the lives of ratepayers and the broader community. As we all can vividly recall, the very first meeting of this council ended in farce with the introduction of the urgent business item to remove the prayer as a standard agenda item from future council meetings; a matter that dragged on for the next nine months. Further, based upon what has subsequently been reported, there is still no agreement among councillors on the core rules that are intended to govern their conduct at council meetings specifically and when representing the shire generally. If they can’t achieve this basic outcome, what hope do we have of them achieving anything meaningful for the balance of their term of office? Of course, all of this plays right into the hands of the shire’s CEO, as he can quite legitimately take full advantage of the wider powers that the Local Government Act 2020 has extended to the holders of his position. Internally, he must chuckle to himself when he listens to all the meaningless dross that our elected representatives continue to churn out. We can only hope that the continued incompetence of the current council makes its way to the desk of the Minister for Local Government or the Local Government Inspectorate and that they look closely at the cessation of this council’s tenure. Stuart Allen, Dromana

‘Toxic’ a tonic I have to say the “toxic culture” is a good thing and certainly refreshing versus the “collegiate culture” of the past (“‘Toxic culture’ splits council” The News 31/8/21).

We might be on the verge of democracy rather than a council of sycophants to the CEO and officers. It might even mean that the CEO might actually lose his “subjective mood” control over what items are on the council agenda and what is not, blocking anything he does not want on the agenda regardless of what the councillors want. Giving this power to the CEO is like giving the power of corporate mafia to sue governments anytime government “interferes” in their making a profit. I have to say that Cr. Steve Holland has hit some spikes on the head with a 20kg sledgehammer. But then he seems to display the common Liberal position on debate - block and delete anything that you do not agree with. And Cr Anthony Marsh and his indictment of the catering budget is valid; maybe the budget for the private bar in chambers could be looked into also (“Trimming the budget” 31/8/21). However, what is long past due, is some strategic planning including the public on what the shire should be spending its money on in the first place. Thank deity for rate capping. I can remember all the poor boy boo hooing several years ago about the negative effects. But what it means is the councillors must think about what they spend it on. A good look at salaries and bonuses for the executives would be a good start, with a negative incentive for all the consultants being hired to do the job they are being paid to do in the first place. Joe Lenzo, Safety Beach

Parking eyesores Returning home to the Mornington Peninsula after six months away my husband and I were horrified to see the new solar parking structures dotted around the Rye area. Unable to travel further than five kilometres from home, we are not sure if these also exist elsewhere on the peninsula. To put it bluntly, they are ugly and stand out like the proverbial sore thumb. They teeter on the edge of land along Point Nepean Road and there are even two standing in Ozone Street near the intersection with Point Nepean Road. Surely these are not going to be permanent structures? Mornington Peninsula Shire Council has made many recent improvements in Rye - hopefully we can do better monitoring parking spaces in the area. Karen Gelley, Rye

Futurist Fraser I could not help but think that former councillor Hugh Fraser must be a clairvoyant or a mind reader, whereby he could “read the writing on the wall” that the current council was going to become a dysfunctional rabble that has no ability to achieve anything meaningful for the benefit of our community (“‘Toxic culture’ splits council” The News 31/8/21). I do not think the current situation does not paint the CEO in a very good light, in that he can’t seem to keep the current crop of councillors focused on the primary task of acting in the best interests of the Mornington Peninsula community. Once again, I recall Mr Fraser citing “unreconcilable points of differences with the CEO”, when he resigned from council in March 2021. So, Hugh, can you give us any tips on how we can get rid of the current 12 elected officials (and maybe the CEO as well?), in preference to having to wait another three years? Ian Bennett, Fingal

Community ‘misled’ I believe the Mornington Peninsula community has been scandalously misled by a council that would not adopt as part of its [Governance Rules] a clause which provides that the chief executive officer may reject a councillor’s notice of motion that relates to the day-to-day management of the shire by the CEO. No such clause was put out by council when it sought public comment on its proposed procedural rules – as it was required by law and its own policies to do so. It is an important clause which, if it stands, will further shift control of what council may consider and debate into the ambit of the CEO and further cut down the powers of council to extract accountability from the CEO and management for their actions and inaction. Yet in a “surprise” late amendment on 24 August, council in a majority vote by the mayor Cr Despi O’Connor and Crs Paul Mercurio, Sarah Race, Kerri McCafferty, Anthony Marsh and Lisa Dixon – resolved to adopt just such a clause as part of its procedural rules (“No easy pass for council rules” The News 31/8/21]. Council’s discretion to do so has miscarried and this resolution ought to be set aside. Hugh Fraser, Rye

Times have changed Regarding the Ross Trust’s proposed new mine on Arthurs Seat, I was interested to read that the last will of R E Ross asks trust’s trustees have,

Picture: Yanni

“regard for the circumstances prevailing from time to time”. In the face of today’s prevailing circumstances, including the twin and undeniably intertwined crises of climate change and biodiversity loss, will the Ross Trust finally reconsider its mining investment strategy? Is a new mine that could see crucially important ancient tall trees fall and a wildlife biolink severed so that the side of Arthurs Seat can be blasted until near 2100, all less than one kilometre from a thriving primary school, really the right investment strategy for a philanthropic organisation focused on education and sustainability? Equally, if the new mine proposal is somehow approved, does the Ross Trust truly believe that its brand won’t be forever damaged by the images of fallen tall trees or bewildered wildlife that will inevitably come if works proceed? Now, in the face of twin climate and biodiversity emergencies, the time has come for our philanthropic leaders to lead for a better shared future. The circumstances prevailing today demand nothing less. Rebekah Cassidy, Red Hill

Careful what you keep Between lockdowns my partner and I took a road trip to Willunga, South Australia to sample Russel’s Pizza, widely renowned as the best in Australia. They were great, but still on a par with our local favourite 10-on-Main. It would seem that 10-on-Main has not been able to withstand the successive lockdowns. As the Big Yellow Taxi song says: You don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone. In a similar vein, there is a public opinion piece on the go that covers the rezoning of buildings on the Rosebud foreshore, and at the beach end of Mornington. It allows for four-storey developments between the towns and the sea. If you need an example, go to see the South East Water building in Frankston, which cuts off that city from the beach. The rezoning appears to have been decided on already, and the public opinion is out there just for political gloss. Next to gravity, there is no greater force than human greed. John Dusting, Mornington

Emergency not valid The ABS reports on its website in a document called Provisional Mortality Statistics the following: “There was an average of 387.5 deaths per day between January and May 2021, compared to 382.2 at the same point in 2020 and a baseline average (for the last five years) of 364.0.” These statistics do not constitute grounds for the Victorian government’s declaration of a State of Emergency or State of Disaster. There is however a real emergency facing Victoria in terms of the economy, basic human rights, the quality of life of the Victorian community, and the emergence of a more authoritarian state government. Issues with commercial in confidence on government projects, delays and redactions on FoI requests, the Victorian premier covertly signing a BRI agreement with China, and pending changes (subject to royal decree) making it more difficult to register a political party, make me wonder if the government is serving itself or the community. Graeme Hector Willis, Mount Eliza

Animal rules I read about speciesism with interest (“Human rules” Letters 31/8/21). At first glance it sounds like an objective to be pursued, however I’m sad to say it is doomed to fail. None of the animals I have spoken to are really interested. I have had several long talks with our pussy cat and she refuses to accept that we humans are her equal. We have known for some time that she is the head of the household, so I thought maybe the idea of speciesism would bring her to see reason. Sadly no. Probably the most shocking aspect of her outlook is that she seems to be some sort of socialist. She is very happy to receive her food and water, and have a nice place to sleep, but not willing to lift a finger (paw?) to assist. Sleeping much of the day is her idea of a life fulfilled. Oh dear, back to challenging the other socialists and peddlers of silly ideas. Jack Wheeler, Mornington

Heel pain in the morning YOU’VE just started putting in the extra miles, walking or running to get fit, and suddenly putting weight on the base of the foot, near the heel makes it ache, and makes more training a painful prospect. That sharp pain in your heel can be a symptom of plantar fasciitis, a condition of the connective plantar fascia tissue in your foot, and traditionally very difficult to treat. Physiotherapist Josie Wilson says Plantar Fasciitis is an overuse injury that can feel as though you have a pebble in your shoe. At Back In Motion Balnarring, we have several solutions for this condition. Firstly, it is important to look at your whole lower limb biomechanics. As a result, we can work on your strength and flexibility in your leg and foot, prescribe orthotics, tape and teach taping, and use massage and ultrasound to reduce inflammation. We have a unique way of mobilizing your foot and teaching “foot core stability” to reduce pressure on the plantar fascia. Apart from the above solutions, there is a newer healing technology that is making a profound difference to Plantar fasciitis sufferers.

Practice owner and physiotherapist, Paul Rowson says shockwave therapy is often useful, because the Plantar fascia is a connective tissue, not a muscle. “It puts a significant shockwave through the tissues you apply it to,” Mr Rowson says. “It is a pressure wave which brings blood flow to the area. Tendons and connective tissue do not have much blood supply and can take a long time to heal. Shockwave artificially stimulates the healing of the tendon”. Shockwave therapy can also be used on Achilles tendonitis, tennis and golfer’s elbow, and rotator cuff tendon problems, and is usually most effective on long term chronic problems, rather than acute injuries. Both physios say that Shockwave is not the first line of treatment for injured patients. Physiotherapy and graded exercise are more likely in the first instance. For more stubborn conditions, shockwave has shown good results in other Back In Motion clinics. “The evidence at the moment suggests between three to five treatments are required, but most people should see an improvement within three sessions. It has a 90% success rate,”Ms Wilson says.

The Shockwave therapy is administered for a three-minute period to the affected area during consecutive weekly appointments. “It is a bit of an uncomfortable sensation,”Ms Wilson says, “like most physio hands-on treatments with a little discomfort during the treatment.” Mr Rowson says,” After each session, most people get a significant reduction of pain and symptoms. Long term it stimulates healing, short term it reduces pain.” “Probably the best thing is, the effects are long lasting. It stops a lot of people having more invasive things like surgery or injections. The treatment is considered safe, but can produce skin reddening or bruising, short term pain, and cannot be used on people taking blood thinning medications or with bleeding disorders.” “It is important to know that shock wave has a long-term effect. Most of the time you have good outcomes without having to do further treatment.” says Mr Rowson.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

State Premier visits Frankston for first time Gamble and seconded by Mr Geo. Keast, was carried by acclamation. Mr Utber, who was to have moved vote of thanks to Premier, was unable to be present, owing to illness in his family. *** THERE was a good attendance of members at the quarterly meeting of the Frankston Social Tent, I. O. R., held on the 22nd ult. Bro Angwin, C.R., occupied the chair. Mr T. Ferrier was complimented on having collected £6 14s in aid of the Blind Appeal Fund, and an acknowledgement was received from the Lord Mayor. Bro. Ferrier thanked all who had subscribed so liberally. *** WE are informed that an Honor Board of a very handsome design, has been ordered for the Frankston Methodist Church. Arrangements are being made for the unveiling to take place on the last Sunday in September. It is expected that either ChaplainGeneral A. T. Holden, C.B.E., B.A. or Chaplain Colonel E. Nye, B.A., will perform the ceremony. *** WE regret to have to report the death of Mr Edward Sage, who, as previously reported, was seriously ill. He was removed to the Alfred Hospital for treatment, but despite all that could be done for him there he passed away on the 24th ult., and was buried in the Frankston cemetery on the following day, the Rev A. P. McFarlane officiating at the graveside. It is said that the deceased was one of the first white people born on the

Compiled by Cameron McCullough THE State Premier, Hon. H. S. W. Lawson, visited Frankston last Saturday. Prior to speaking in the Mechanics’ Hall at night, he was entertained at dinner by the Frankston branch of the National Federation. The function took place at the Pier Tea House, when about 40 ladies and gentlemen sat down to table. Mr H. Gamble, president of the local branch of the Federation, presided. After Dr Maxwell had given the toast of The King, Mr Gamble proposed the State Government. He referred to the fact that on no previous occasion had Frankston been honored with a visit by a Premier of the State. The shire president (Cr W. P. Mason), and Mr Geo. Shepherd (Somerville), spoke in support. The Premier, who replied at length, met with a most enthusiastic reception. “The Press” was the other toast given, proposed by Mr Geo. Keast, and acknowledged by the special representatives of the “Age” and “Argus,” and Mr Young, of the “Standard.” The catering arrangements, as usual, were admirably carried out by Mr Vicars. At 8 o’clock Mr Lawson addressed a crowded audience at the Mechanics’ Hall, when the shire president presided. The Premier, who met with a flattering reception, urged the importance of casting a Nationalist vote, and if they voted 1 for Sambell they were to be sure and vote 2 for Cook, or visa versa. A vote of thanks, moved by Mr

Peninsula, and has lived in this district ever since. *** A SAD fatality took place in the district on the night of the 24th ult., when a housekeeper, named Kate Pyle, aged 62 years, employed by Mrs Wm Frayne, was accidentally suffocated by smoke, supposed to be the result of the upsetting of a candle, which ignited the clothes of a bed in which deceased was sleeping. She retired to rest in her usual state of health, and failing to appear the following morning to carry out her domestic duties as usual, an investigation was made by Mrs Frayne, who was horrified to find the room full of smoke from the smouldering bedding, and the unfortunate lady quite dead. A magisterial inquiry was conducted by Mr Chas Murray, J.P., when the following finding was brought in: “That deceased met her death by suffocation, caused by her accidentally setting her bed on fire.” The remains were sent to Frankston for interment. *** CRICKET supporters are invited to attend a meeting at the Frankston Hall on Wednesday, 7th inst., at 8 o’clock. Dr Maxwell, the convener, points out that there was no club last year, and much pleasure and exercise was lost in consequence. A revival is hoped for, but it is necessary that all lovers of the game accept this opportunity of attending to assist in the formation of a club. *** CLIP your nails and trim your whiskers!

PUZZLE ZONE

“Brush-up” smart and show your breed. Hold your own among “fine friskers”, If you don’t you’ll “run to seed!” Wear no garments antiquated, All old fashioned fads abjure For colds refuse all dupes out-dated, Insist on Woods’ Great Peppermint Cure. *** THE origin of the name of Frankston is claimed from two different sources – one that the town was named after Charlie Franks, who was employed by the State to visit the different native camps and distribute food to the natives. Frankston was one of the camps he used to visit, but it was at Little River, Werribee, that he met his end at the hands of the natives. The other source of the name of Frankston that has been advanced is that it was named after Frank Liardet, who, with his brother, owned Ballam Park, now owned by Mr. C. G. Y. Williams. The first bricks used in building at Melbourne were made at Ballam Park. There are large deposits of clay throughout the Peninsula, which were originally basalt, and which has more readily decomposed in the Peninsula than in other districts. This is shown by specimens at the Geological Museum, Melbourne. *** AT a special meeting of the Shire Council held on the 18th inst., Cr. Wells moved, in accordance with notice given at a previous meeting, that the councillors of each riding act

with the engineer in administering the building by-laws. He said at present the whole of the responsibility was thrown on the engineer. He considered councillors had a duty to perform in this connection, and he for one was not going to shirk it. He referred to the fact that Mr. Farmer had been compelled to put up a cantilever verandah, while Cr. Oates, who had erected a shop at the same time as Farmer, had made provision for a post verandah. Cr. Wells said he would like to know if an area had been defined within which cantilever verandahs must be erected. Cr. Oates: I had my application in long before Farmer. Mr. Candy (who represented the engineer) said he personally suggested to Mr. Sambell that new business places in Frankston should be proved with cantilever verandahs. The place was going ahead, and Farmer’s building occupied a position where a combination verandah was necessary. After consideration Mr. Sambell acted on his (Mr. Candy’s) advice. Cr. Wells: It is the fault of the engineer that he takes too much advice. Cr. Wells produced a plan of a building proposed to be erected on a 33-foot frontage, with rooms 13 ft. x 13 ft. This plan, according to Cr. Wells, was turned down for some paltry reason, and Frankston had lost a new building. *** From the pages of the Frankston and Somerville Standard, 2 September 1921

Strikers no to junior boys’ NPL SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie PENINSULA Strikers told Football Victoria last week that they would not compete in the elite junior boys’ NPL competition next year. This leaves the local area with just two junior NPL licence holders, Langwarrin and Mornington. Strikers have contemplated this move for some time as senior vicepresident and NPL coordinator Steve Schreck explained. “Probably when our under-16 team left and we had to withdraw from that age group,” he said. “We had the minimum squad number but six players decided they wanted to play elsewhere and that left us with 10 players and you can’t run a team with those numbers. “It was all good until the registration window and that ruined us. “We only found out two days before the deadline that all these lads were leaving so we didn’t have an option but to withdraw.” Running a compliant JBNPL program is demanding if clubs stick to the specifics of their licence and although Strikers placed an emphasis on compliance it still proved a difficult assignment. “The hardest part is getting the numbers due to the dilution of the talent pool,” Schreck added. “Then you have to get coaches that fit the compliance criteria including a technical director and goalkeeping coach. “The coaching and the medical requirements (physio/trainer) were the main areas we found clubs were not compliant with. “So now our focus changes and we’ll offer the same programs at community football costs so COVIDimpacted families can commit to the sport in these uncertain times. “We’ll concentrate on these important community aspects in which we have done so well over many years now.” Schreck’s email to FV formally withdrawing from the JBNPL highlighted the club’s struggle to field the minimum amount of players in all four age groups. It also pointed to the impact on the quality of its junior program. “Even if we did field the teams, the quality would be highly compromised,

which is not what we want and is not fair to any of the more talented players we may have. “The talented player pool (willing to play NPL) in the area is not what it was when we started, and is even less now. “We hope, by letting you know early, you can plan around reallocating licenses so as not to disrupt the NPL and possibly assist the other two local (junior) NPL clubs in this area.” Strikers have asked FV for specific community junior slots for two age groups. “We request that we be granted a team in the Community 15s A grade and 16s A grade competitions. “Prior to NPL we had A grade teams in most age groups (and) by granting us A-grade teams in the above two age groups we should be able to retain most players in the two teams, with the NPL-aspiring kids still being able to trial elsewhere.”

season Mornington sat on top of the league a point clear of BoroondaraCarey Eagles who had a game in hand. Mornington was 10 points ahead of third-placed Eltham Redbacks. Pines were eight points clear of second-placed South Yarra and were firm title favourites. Head coach Kevin “Squizzy” Taylor was dismayed at what he sees as a lack of communication and planning. “I get why they cancelled the season but there still is no explanation of why there’s no promotion,” he said. “The lack of communication is very disappointing. “And why did competitions decide not to play rounds 10 and 11 when we restarted after the previous lockdown? “If they had then everyone could have played everyone else then we could have made a call on promotion and relegation. “Local footy presented clubs with a number of different scenarios so clubs

Meanwhile the impact of last week’s FV announcement of a season cancellation with no promotion or relegation is still being felt. The cancellation announcement aligns with other codes but is a body blow to Mornington and Frankston Pines. Mornington has long eyed a berth in the NPL and was set to achieve this aim with promotion from State 1 while Pines were on the verge of securing the State 3 South-East championship. This is the third time that Mornington has been denied NPL promotion. It won back-to-back State 1 titles in 2015 and 2016 but FV continued to fence off the NPL from State League clubs. In 2016 Nunawading City finished last in the old NPL2 East with just one win for the season while scoring 20 goals and conceding 112 yet it retained its NPL licence. When a halt was called to the current

knew what to expect. “How did we not have guidelines in place for these eventualities after what happened last year?” However all is not lost for Mornington and Pines. It is believed that FV is giving close consideration to implementing an NPL2 restructure and increasing that competition from 12 to 14 teams. This would create vacancies in NPL3 and Mornington would be a prime candidate. And State 1 South-East became an 11-team league earlier this year when St Kilda dropped out so restoring it to a 12-team competition for the coming season seems all but assured. But league restructures are not the only issue the state body is considering. It has set a Friday 17 September deadline for the release of its 2021 fees refund policy.

Footy called off for 2021 AFL

By Brodie Cowburn THE 2021 MPNFL and SEWF seasons have been called off. After weeks of inactivity on the field because of COVID-19 restrictions, AFL South East finally made the decision to pull the pin on the season last week. A statement from AFL South East read “following on from [the] announcement to extend the lockdown for Greater Melbourne, it is with much sadness that AFLSE has determined that the remaining games fixtured for season 2021, including all finals, for all AFLSE administered leagues will be cancelled.” “This is an extremely difficult decision and we had continued to hold hope that we would be able to complete our season. However, it has become clear over the last 24 hours that it will not be possible to return to football in the Greater Melbourne area in the near future. We wish to thank all club officials, players, volunteers, umpires and our partners for their willingness to remain flexible and for their understanding throughout the whole year in very difficult circumstances. “We will work with all leagues to manage the impact this decision has, including whether premierships will be awarded, in due course. We remain committed to running our virtual awards night for each of the competitions to provide a positive closure to the season. More information on this will be provided over the coming weeks. The ALFSE team hope that all of our communities are staying safe in these challenging times. We look forward to a safe return for the 2022 season. “AFL Victoria will provide an update on other AFL lead programs, including Auskick, in due course.” Other leagues statewide, including the Southern Football Netball League, have also made the decision to cancel their seasons. The VFL season was abandoned last week too, putting an end to Frankston’s push for finals. The Dolphins sat at six wins and five losses for the year, by far their best result since re-entering the league in 2018.

Cliff Brown is back HORSE RACING

By Ben Triandafillou MORNINGTON-based trainer Cliff Brown is back training winners in Australia. The 15-time Group 1 winning trainer in Singapore returned to Victoria in May and broke through for his first winner back with Veterok at Pakenham on Friday 27 August. Just a week later and Brown has claimed the Group 2 McEwen Stakes with his Group 1 winning Singapore sprinter, The Inferno (formerly known as Inferno). After racing keenly and trapped wide first-up at Caulfield to finish midfield, The Inferno quickly shot back into form in the 1000m sprint at The Valley to win by a comfortable one-length margin over Matt Laurie’s Group 1 winner Portland Sky. The victory had Brown highlighting his promising sprinter as a potential candidate for the $14 million The Everest in October. “He was brilliant. I knew he’d improve but I didn’t know where he sat still (with his Singapore form). Just to see him do it, it’s just tremendous,” Cliff Brown said. “It’s not an aim (The Everest) but if we got a position, we’d certainly take it.” The Inferno got out to winning the Singapore Guineas (1600m) last year but Brown believes the promising sprinter would be better suited to the shorter trips at this stage. “He pulled very hard (over the mile) for the majority of that race. He was just too good for his own age group that day,” he said. “He might get a mile in time but just not at the moment – 1200m and 1400m, not a problem.” The Inferno’s next target is yet to be locked in.

Now with 14 horses in work at Mornington, Brown said he’s gradually adjusting to the training style in Victoria. “We’re still learning. There’s still work that I’m not sure if that’s enough or too much but we’re getting there slowly,” he

said. “It’s a promising start but it can also turn around very quickly.” Brown trained five Group One winners in Australia before moving to Singapore in 2008.
