Election's over and it's same old, same old from the Nationals MP for Clarence

Nationals MP for Clarence Chris Gulaptis who has never voted anything but the Sydney-centric Liberal Party line had this to say in The Daily Examiner on 3 April 2015:

CHRIS Gulaptis has defended the downgrading of the Minister for the North Coast saying as Parliamentary Secretary he will have more time to take his constituents' North Coast issues to cabinet.

The Clarence MP's appointment came as part of the Baird Grant cabinet reshuffle announced on Wednesday.

If ever there was an empty promise it would be that one.

For the political tragics out there.....

Although the Nationals retained the seat, only 48.89% of those who voted in the Clarence electorate are known to have put Chris Gulaptis first on their ballot papers on 28 March 2015.  

By 6 April and with final counting not yet completed, the swing away from him was 22 per cent after the distribution of preferences. Currently the margin for his seat stands at around 9.4 per cent - down from 31.4 per cent in 2011 reported by election analyst Antony Green.

Strawweight Gulaptiz as useful as pockets in a singlet

Clarence Valley community members have every reason to remain well and truly p*ssed off with their local MP, Chris Gulaptiz ( note: spelling is intentional, it indicates he's past his use-by-date).

IF, the Nationals have the temerity to ever again nominate a candidate in Clarence they should at least ensure that person has graduated and is no longer on trainer wheels.

It's all very well and good for Gulaptiz to join the picket line at Grafton Jail, although party line dancing seems to be a format he's more acquainted with, and jump up and down telling anyone who'll listen to him about how "disappointed" he is with the Government and Premier about their refusal to budge.

But, at the end of the day, Gulaptiz is absolutely useless.

End of story!
