It must have been wishful thinking:
The story was based on a Senator Bob Brown news conference which gave the Murdoch press a right bollocking with the promise of more to come. It is not something that News Limited is not used to from timid Australian politicians but I hope it is the start of a campaign that has the potential to be a real vote winner for the Greens.
Goodness knows what the headline writer had in mind because Bob Brown’s only promised return is to Canberra.
Catch the press conference on the Crikey site here. It is a delight.
