Airport wants to widen its runway
Picture: Gary Sissons
PENINSULA Aero Club wants to widen the north/south runway at Tyabb Airport. In a planning application to Mornington Peninsula Shire Council PAC asks permission to add three metre wide constructed shoulders to either side of the 10 metre wide runway. Long time airport watcher Brewis Atkinson believes the widened and strengthened runway will lead to more commercial and training aircraft using the airport. Atkinson wants objectors to the plan to urge the shire to impose curfews on the use of the airport by non-emergency flights; set an annual cap of 18,000 take-offs and landings (with touch-and-go counting as two movements); and limit the use of noisy aircraft (exceeding 70 decibels on take-off). He said objections should also be sent to Watson Ward councillor Kate Roper. Roper told The News that residents should ask council’s planning department for “accurate information” about the airport’s request. “This planning application will be dealt with in line with the normal planning process,” she said. The News was unable to contact PAC president Stephen Braim. The club will hold its annual general meeting on 12 October. Keith Platt
Hopes new premier will fix old problems Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au THE Committee for Frankston and Mornington Peninsula wasted no time last week in congratulating Jacinta Allan on her new job as state premier. The lobby group said Allan’s appointment was an opportunity to “collaborate” with the government on a “long list of major advocacy projects” for Frankston and the peninsula. “The committee seeks a renewed
focus and consultative approach by the state government on addressing the major challenges and opportunities within our region, including better connectivity and public transport, more funding for housing on the peninsula, unlocking port-zoned land to create local jobs, better access to health and education opportunities, investment in roads and infrastructure, and the establishment of the Victorian renewable energy terminal in Hastings,” committee CEO Josh Sinclair said.
Most priorities listed by the committee are no different from those raised first by its predecessors, the Committee for Frankston and the Committee for Mornington Peninsula. The now-amalgamated committees have for years separately lobbied for more state government money, better public transport and improved educational opportunities. Sinclair said the committee would “continue to advocate in a bipartisan way”, adding that later this month
October it was looking forward to “welcoming Opposition leader John Pesutto … for a discussion about the major challenges and opportunities in our region”. Former MP for Dunkley and Small Business and now family enterprise ombudsman Bruce Billson was a founding member and first president in March 2019 of the Committee for Mornington Peninsula. Last month he “helped relaunch” the merged committees.
In 2019 Billson said: “Our region has the lowest access to public transport facilities within metropolitan Melbourne, and this raises the question again about whether policy makers and transport planners even consider the Mornington Peninsula to be part of the metropolitan Melbourne. This impacts our community by inhibiting access to educational services, jobs and visitor connections to the region.” Continued Page 6

‘Community’ approach to youth crime Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au
Overseas models: Youth specialist Senior Constable Trent Delaney will travel to Denmark and Germany to look at their policing methods. Picture: Gary Sissons
THE time-worn adage that it “takes a village to raise a child” is the unofficial motto of youth specialist officers on the Mornington Peninsula who are leading the way in proactive policing and initiative based support of young people. Along with youth resource officers, specialist officers like Somerville’s Senior Constable Trent Delaney work directly with young offenders to prevent recidivism and get them back on track. They work mainly with 10 to 20 year old offenders involved in serious crimes and network offending, including evading police, assaults, aggravated burglaries, carjackings and anti-social behaviour. Delaney says he has a genuine and altruistic interest in supporting vulnerable youth to be a part of the community. He cut his teeth in the force working in some of the toughest sectors, spending five years at Frankston, five at Carrum Downs and another two at the family violence unit at Somerville before moving over to the youth service unit. “That kind of work has given me a fantastic footing working with young people, but also getting to work with families, service providers and the community,” Delaney said. “Through that multi-disciplinary experience, I have come to love working with young people and
experiencing the satisfaction when a young person’s life is changed, and that ultimately changes a whole lot of outcomes.” Youth specialist officers work on proactive engagement and “humanising policing”, which is often difficult in an environment where the public perception of young people is negative, and young people have a negative attitude to police. Delaney says he has a range of things in his policing “toolkit” but says that language and communication is a big part of breaking down some of the barriers. “What’s the catalyst for the young person’s behaviour or disengagement? If you can get to know a bit about them and can narrow down the reasons it’s a good start to knowing how to help them,” he said. “It’s not about further entrenching that negativity, we work with parents, with employment services, other youth services and schools – it’s a community and it takes a community. “But what drives one young person isn’t the same as what drives another to behave in a certain way, so we know that an individual approach is the only way. We know that sometimes boredom or just needing money is a driving force for youth crime, so we work with a range of services to keep young people either in school, or to find employment and help them be part of their own journey forward.” Delaney will next month go to Denmark and Germany to learn about those countries’ policing, community
engagement and intervention models, with the hope of implementing some of them in the peninsula and Frankston areas, and perhaps Victoriawide. “Denmark leads the way in terms of community engagement and working with schools. It’s systematic over there and the results speak for themselves,” he said. “As a police officer working in this field, we know that early intervention is critical with young people, and we are always focused on getting out to schools and into the community to talk to young people to let them see us as people too. “Because at the end of the day, we were young once, and we faced many of the same issues all young people face. I grew up on the peninsula and I know that helping and supporting young people is helping the community.” Youth resource officers and youth specialist officers have so far this year visited 80 schools in the Frankston and peninsula areas, delivering classes to pre-school up to year 12. Delaney said the biggest satisfaction of his role is meeting young offenders who returned, often years later, to thank him for taking the time to work with them, support them and show them respect. “Yes, there are often times when we get to meet people we’ve had dealings with and they’ve changed their lives, it’s fantastic and a good part of the reason we do this.”

Emergency helpers’ recruitment drive Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au ANYONE looking for free skills training, a sense of purpose and a new bunch of good-hearted friends can look no further than becoming a member of the Victorian State Emergency Service (VICSES). VICSES is looking for new volunteers to help keep people and property safe when disaster strikes and educate the community on a range of safety issues. As the control agency for storms, flood, earthquake, tsunami and landslide throughout Victoria, VICSES volunteers are involved in many types of emergency situations and road rescues. SES volunteers are often the first to step in during a crisis, but also participate in special projects, community education programs, public safety events and more so that all residents can know how to stay safe during an emergency. It is a modern, inclusive organisation that welcomes all genders from age 16 upwards, from all walks of life and backgrounds, to fill a range of non-operational and operational roles. Hastings SES deputy controller Helen Pugh has been involved with the emergency service for the past eight years, joining in her late 40s when she had more time and wanted to pursue something meaningful. She says joining the SES can be whatever the individual wants from it – regular involvement, occasional emergency assistance or just an opportunity to add transferable skills to
Bird in hand: SES members sometimes get unusual requests, such as to rescue this masked lapwing chick from a drain in Hastings on Thursday 28 September. It was the first callout for Tanya Jonathon. Other members of the SES are, top right, Ebony Manusama and, right, Helen Pugh. Pictures: Supplied
a resume. “My children were older and I was looking to do something in the community where I could meet people and use my skills,” she said. Since then, Pugh has been involved in attending and organising logistics for hundreds of emergency and training incidents and has completed courses that have developed her leadership and public speaking skills. As the SES is a registered training office, all volunteers receive nationally endorsed and competency-based
training in areas ranging from first aid, general rescue, chainsaw operations, community education, media training and much more. They also gain skills and experience in leadership, teamwork, communication, accountability and commitment. Pugh says that above all, helping others and being part of a team is still her driving force. “It’s funny because in my private life I really am quite shy, but as most SES members will tell you, once you put that uniform on you realise that
there are people relying on you, and you just have to ‘show up’. It’s about so much more than just yourself.” Section leader Ebony Manusama, 34, joined the SES when she moved to the Hastings area two years ago to “embed” herself in the community, and says that even on the most “chaotic” of days, the moment she puts on her orange uniform she gains a sense of order. “As soon as I put my uniform on, I know exactly what I have to do and what my role is,” she said.
The busy young mum says joining the SES had helped her become part of the community. “I can’t play sports because of an injury, so joining the SES has been a great way to contribute and get to know people,” she said. “I have a young family but that hasn’t stopped me being involved because there is so much flexibility to the organisation.” Manusama says she doesn’t see any downside to being involved with the SES, and on the contrary enjoys plenty of “positives”. “It’s rewarding, and one of the most humbling things is that you get to see humanity in a totally different way,” she said. Hastings SES covers 462 square kilometres, including as far as Mornington and Mount Martha right through to Somerville to Red Hill. Members can also be deployed elsewhere if there is a need, including to other states in times of emergency. Across the state, VICSES provides emergency assistance to thousands of people every year, and it’s volunteers are the backbone of the organisation. As a statutory authority, VICSES is governed by a board, which is accountable to the Minister for Emergency Services. Operating since 1950, VICSES covers all of Victoria, via 150 units across six regions. To learn more about the role of a VICSES volunteer and how to join go to ses.vic.gov.au/join-us/volunteerroles

Lobbyists want good news from new premier Continued from Page 1 With Billson at its head, the committee distributed an information package that included claims that parts of the peninsula were “some of the most disadvantaged in the state” (“Racing launch for business lobby group” The News 9/4/19). It compared government grants given to Greater Geelong ($2.2 billion) to the “mere $22 million” allocated to the peninsula. It said the percentage of the peninsula’s population with access to public
transport was the lowest in the state. After his appointment as the committee’s CEO in March this year, Sinclair - a former Labor Party candidate - said the peninsula had been “ignored for so long when it comes to getting government funding, so our focus is to change that and give the peninsula the attention it deserves and the infrastructure it deserves” (“Lobby group aims to be bipartisan” The News 14/3/23). He said the committee had evolved over the past few months into a more
professional and focussed team. Billson was replaced on the committee by Zoe McKenzie, who in May 2022 went on to win the federal seat of Flinders for the Liberal Party after the retirement of long time MP Greg Hunt (“Changes at the top for lobby group” The News 10/5/21). At that stage, the committee’s executive officer was Briony Hutton, a former Hunt staffer who contested the state seat of Hastings for the Liberals in the 2022 election which was won by Labor’s Paul Mercurio.
Rethinking
Our Libraries’
role in the community Most of us have visited a library at some point in our life and recognise them as places of learning and inspiration, where people can connect with information, ideas and one another. For others, our libraries at Hastings, Mornington, Rosebud and Somerville offer spaces in which to work, create or just be. Given the important role libraries play in our community, we want to make sure they meet the changing needs of our townships. To ensure we’re on the ‘right page’, we’ve developed a draft Our Library Strategy 2024 – 2029.
Help shape the next chapter Whether you’re a regular library user or not, we want your feedback and input to help refine Our Library Strategy 2024-2029. Does it meet your needs? Where do you see our libraries heading into the future? What innovative things could we do to attract non-users to our libraries?

Data shows urgent need for drug, alcohol help ALCOHOL and drug-related health problems In Frankston and on the Mornington Peninsula are among the highest in the region. The Alcohol and other Drug Catchment plan of Peninsula Health, 2023 (Bayside Peninsula area), reveals that Frankston has the highest demand for alcohol and drug services in metropolitan Melbourne (2972), with the peninsula close behind at 2262. Bayside had 847. The catchment plan - which also covers Kingston, Stonnington, Glen Eira and Port Phillip - looks at service usage data to identify the needs of people with alcohol and drug (AOD) problems and factors driving support and demand for alcohol and other drug services. The data revealed that despite high levels of service need in Frankston and on the peninsula, overall demand is not currently being met, with four week waiting times for services being common throughout 2022. Frankston also uses the highest proportion of alcohol and drug services in metro Melbourne for intake and counselling, but the nearest residential withdrawal service centres are at Dandenong and St Kilda. The most specific measures of AOD harms at the local government areas level are ambulance attendances for AOD use, overdose deaths and police incidents. In 2021, some of metro Melbourne’s highest rates for those harms were recorded in Frankston, Mornington Peninsula, Port Phillip and Stonnington. The Australian Bureau of statistics has also released new figures that show that across the country, there was a 9.1 per cent increase in the alcohol-induced death rate in 2022 – the highest rate recorded in more than a decade. Alcohol-induced deaths are those where the
underlying cause can be directly attributed to alcohol use, including acute conditions such as alcohol poisoning or chronic conditions such as alcoholic liver cirrhosis. The latest statistics show: n There were 1742 alcohol-induced deaths (1245 males and 497 females). n In 2022 there was a 9.1 per cent increase in the alcohol-induced death rate, with 164 additional deaths since 2021. n The age-standardised rate for alcohol-induced deaths was 8.7 for males and 3.4 for females, representing the highest rates per 100,000 people in the 10-year time series. n The rate increase is largely due to complications associated with chronic alcohol use including liver cirrhosis and liver failure. n The largest increase in alcohol-induced deaths from 2021 was in females aged 45-64 years (55 more deaths) and males aged 65-84 years (47 more deaths). Alcohol and Drug Foundation CEO Dr Erin Lalor said the increase in the death rate from 2021, driven by complications associated with chronic alcohol use, reiterated the need for greater action to stop the numbers rising. “These heartbreaking deaths, which are mostly preventable, have a ripple effect on the community, with friends and families suffering. Our thoughts are with those who have been impacted,” she said. “We can’t afford to further delay action to reduce these unacceptable numbers which have been increasing since 2018. Greater investment in evidence-based prevention, harm reduction, and treatment services is urgently needed.” For support or advice, visit adf.org.au or call the National Alcohol and Other Drug Hotline on 1800 250 015.

What is the Voice? “There are still many people who are undecided,” Russell said. “There are also people who are confused. We simply answer their questions and give them a flyer with succinct information about the referendum.” D’Arcy said the aim of the campaign was “to ensure people on the Mornington Peninsula make an informed vote”. “We have met some interesting people such as Johnny Mathias, a young man from Brazil who received [Australian] citizenship at a ceremony on 13 September and will be voting here for the first time.” The Progressives of the Peninsula’s information flyer is available online at: sarahrussell.com. au/2023/09/30/information-flyer/

MEMBERS of the Progressives of the Peninsula group have launched their Just Ask campaign as a way to “engage the disengaged, the undecideds and the No voters” before the 14 October Voice to Parliament referendum “Our democracy relies on informed voters.

Gambling out of harm’s way GAMBLING Harm Awareness Week 2023 (16 to 22 October) has the theme Talk. Share. Support. Mornington Peninsula Shire Council is holding a community forum on the harms of gambling, in collaboration with Frankston City Council, as well as Connect Health and Victorian Responsible Gambling Foundation, both part of the shire’s gambling consultative committee. “So often we find ourselves in challenging situations without the right tools. This forum will give you those tools to understand how to deal with the harms of gambling,” the mayor Cr Steve Holland said. The forum and Gambling Harm Awareness Week offers an opportunity to understand the harms of gambling, what support is available and how to start a conversation on the harms of gambling. The free forum will be held at 7pm on Thursday 12 October, at the Mount Eliza Community Centre. Tickets are free at mornpen.vic.gov.au/ gamblingharmsession Those attending will hear stories of recovery from gamblers or family and friends.

Emergency pressure THE closure of a Frankston general practitioner has left hundreds of methadone users in limbo. Frankston Healthcare Medical Centre was scheduled to close last month. It offered pharmacotherapy treatment to patients living with drug addiction. Methadone is a common pharmacotherapy prescription. The GP’s director Nadia Siciliano told 3AW last month that more than 400 patients a week would be affected by the closure. She said that
the state government did not support the clinic when it asked for help. “We have 1800 heroin addicts or drug addicted patients that come in that we treat,” she said. “About 400 to 500 patients a week that we see that are on methadone, sublocade, and suboxone will be at Frankston [Hospital] emergency department. “Your [emergency] department is going to explode and if these patients don’t get seen the crime rate in Frankston is going to go up because a lot of patients are going to relapse.” A Monash University report released in February revealed that private practices are caring for most patients receiving pharmacotherapy treatment in Victoria. The review panel’s report, Review of the Medically Supervised Injecting Room, said that just 50 of Victoria’s 14,804 pharmacotherapy patients were in the public system. “Victoria’s pharmacotherapy system ... is founded on ageing policy, programs and regulation and is becoming increasingly difficult to access due to significant workforce issues and a dwindling pool of doctors and pharmacists willing to take on pharmacotherapy patients,” the report stated. Frankston Healthcare director Siciliano said there was a shortage of doctors willing to engage in pharmacotherapy treatment, and called the situation a “big problem”. “Our full time doctor has gone on leave and we have struggled to find GPs to help with pharmacotherapy because they’re too scared to prescribe and see the patients,” she said. Frankston MP Paul Edbrooke was contacted for comment. Brodie Cowburn

RESiLIFT also offers two larger models, and the salesperson will help you choose the right lift for you based on your needs, floor plan and space. Purpose - It may sound obvious, but it is important to consider why you want a lift. At first, it might be for transporting groceries from your garage to an upper level. But as time goes on, and your mobility support needs increase, it may be essential to have a lift car that caters for a walking aid or wheelchair. Taking a longer-term view of your potential needs is essential in determining the best lift for your home.
Location – Creating a space for a lift in an existing home requires careful thought. Ideally the lift should be centrally located, possibly near the stairwell or in a converted hallway cupboard.
Lifts with hinged doors need space for the door to open and circulation space around them on both levels. This increases the
commercial-style lifts. Requiring only
minimal building works, RESiLIFT is the most affordable lift on the market.

Operation - Some lifts are fully automated which means that the user must be fully enclosed during operation. This begs the question of how to evacuate in the event of a power outage. Alternatively, non-automatic lifts, such as a RESiLIFT, require a competent operator to control movement with continuous pressure on the button to travel. This style of lift also

trivia competitions, birthday celebrations, bingo, movie afternoons or games groups. Or, for the sports lovers, there’s a private village bowling green and club house, regular indoor bowls sessions, pool/billiards and the village fitness centre.

Tennis elbow shock relief You have had a big week on the tools or have increased the amount of tennis you are playing or may have a new racquet. Then it seems like everything you pick up, not just racquets and tools, hurts. Even simple things like a cup of tea can be painful if your elbow is bad. This can really make work a misery, or the prospect of playing tennis, foreboding.
The pain on the outside of the elbow is due to inflammation of the tendon, the common extensor origin, where the forearm extensor muscles attach. It is commonly known as “tennis elbow” but is called lateral epicondylalgia or epicondylitis amongst physios and doctors. Physiotherapist Liam Thomas says that it is an is an overuse injury, and requires initial rest, particularly if aching at night, icing, strengthening and stretching exercises, and massage. Apart from the above solutions, there is a newer healing technology that is making a profound difference to Tennis Elbow sufferers.
Shockwave therapy can also be used on Achilles tendonitis, Plantar Fasciitis, 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, Shockwave is not the first line of treatment for injured patients. Physiotherapy and graded exercise are more likely in the first instance, but for more stubborn conditions, shockwave has shown good results. “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 success rate up to 90%,’’ Thomas 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”
Thomas says, “like most physio hands-on treatments with a little discomfort during the treatment. 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 Shockwave has a long-term effect. Most of the time you have good outcomes without having to have further treatments.” Shockwave is now available in Balnarring. Call in and speak to the physios to see if it suits your condition.
Tennis Elbow
Practice owner, Paul Rowson says “Shockwave Therapy is often useful, because the common extensor origin is a connective tissue, not a muscle. It puts a significant shockwave through the tissues you apply it to. 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.”

Your questions answered by Maggie from DenturePoint What is DenturePoint?
DenturePoint is a denture clinic. As the name suggests, we specialise in making dentures - that’s all we do! You can come to chat to us about all your denture related questions or problems.
Can you make me a denture if I only have one tooth missing?
Yes, we could make a flexible, clip on denture. They work incredibly well for small spaces without having metal clasps and lots of plastic in your mouth. They don’t only offer aesthetics but most of all they help prevent migration of your remaining teeth by keeping them in the same place. I’d like to start on a new denture but I can’t stand that goo in my mouth as it makes me gag!
At DenturePoint we are now, in most cases, able to take digital scans of your mouth which is extremely accurate and does not make you gag at all. It works particularly well for patients requiring partial dentures. Can I come to adjust a denture that was made elsewhere?
Yes, you can but since the denture was made elsewhere I would have to charge you for any adjustments.
What if my dentist says I need to extract all my teeth? Will I have to be without them for a while?
If your dentist recommends extraction of all your teeth we can make an immediate denture for you which is placed immediately after the surgery and therefore you are never seen without a smile. That denture might need some adjustments once your gums heal. If you need more information we have a leaflet in our surgery explaining the whole process.
Dental Prosthetist, Maggie Murch. Photo Supplied
What do I do if I get a sore spot?
You can try rinsing your mouth with warm salt water and baking soda. (Half a spoon of salt, a spoon of bicarbonate soda and a half a litre of warm water). If the pain persists, you should see your Dental Prosthetist. Should I sleep with my denture in?
It is recommended to sleep without your dentures. Sleeping with your denture in will cause excessive wear or breakage, especially if you clench or grind your teeth at night. It may also cause stomatitis - an inflammation of your gums, which subsequently may affect the fit of your dentures.

Permit solution a remedy for peninsula’s housing shortage Our Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor, Cr Steve Holland, laments the proposed 7.5 per cent tax on short stay accommodation and adds that it will do nothing to fix the housing crisis (“Overnight tax ‘bad for business’” The News 26/9/23). Of course not. Short stay accommodation is an easy and lucrative way of making money out of tourism and the state, which contributes to tourism, is simply getting in on the act and raising revenue. Tourists are there for no other reason than to be exploited. On the other hand, the mayor is uncertain of the ramifications of the removal of planning permits when building a granny flat or car port (“Uncertainty over permit changes” The News 26/9/23). A part of the solution to the housing crisis and simultaneously some other problems at crisis point, is granny flats complete with grannies. For years, we have considered building a modest granny flat in the backyard, living in it, and letting a grandson and his family use the house which we no longer need. With Nanny and Pa available every day. We are not interested in profits, break even would be fine. But red tape, permits, unknowns and the expenses before you even dig the first hole discouraged us. I don’t think we would be eligible for a housing ministry granny flat construction, where they do all the red tape and permits and build standardised, compliant units; but we’d be very happy to buy or rent one, or even have them manage our little project. Perhaps, if all governments were serious about the housing crisis and social problems, they might facilitate older people who want to provide housing but can’t because it is all too daunting. No planning permits is one very small step towards this. Brian A Mitchelson, Mornington
Public housing the key You could have a two lane mud track from Melbourne, and it would only put a small dent in the 8.2m domestic visitors (“Overnight tax ‘bad for business’” The News 26/9/23)March 22- March 23). The mayor [Cr Steve] Holland said the short term accommodation tax announcement was a “huge disappointment” and would severely impact the “struggling tourism and hospitality sectors” (refer to previous statement) and said the levy would override the [Mornington Peninsula] shire’s short stay rental local law and fail to solve the housing and rental affordability problem. However, there is anecdotal evidence that it does in the short term. The reality is the only thing that will solve the problem is a significant investment in public housing. Building more unaffordable housing will not work. Public housing in Singapore is subsidised, built, and managed by the government of Singapore. In 2022 77 per cent was public housing. And then the paradigm of [what] a home is has to change to more affordable construction methods besides bricks and mortar. There are factory built homes that are top notch in the mix of alternatives, 3D homes, tiny homes, shipping container homes, granny flat or backyard studio, prefab cabin or modular homes, floating apartment complexes. Joe Lenzo, Safety Beach
‘Greedy landlords’ Once again I wish to express my disappointment with a decision made by the Mornington [Peninsula] Shire Council. It claims to be interested in making the peninsula more appealing as a tourist destination but, in my opinion, continues to make decisions that are more likely to deter tourists from visiting the area. At Mount Martha north beach parking area we have had a very popular asset in Bussy McBusface, a service which supplied coffee and some food to many people in the area, especially during the COVID pandemic crisis. I and many other locals are very disappointed that this facility has had to withdraw its services due to a dramatic increase in the rent for the site imposed by the council on the owners.

The council provided a site and virtually nothing else. The owners had to run a generator to provide the electricity required and carry water in containers from a tap. It seems to me that the council is like many of the greedy landlords that exist who are more intent on gouging as much money from their renters forgetting that these people are providing a service that attracts people to the region. Terry Langley, Mount Martha
Accept the change Indigenous people are extending their hand for recognition in the Australian Constitution. The question is - will we take it? If we vote Yes to the referendum, it will be a win win for all of us Indigenous and non-Indigenous people in our country Australia. Some of us have worked in Western Australia, Northern Territory and Queensland Indigenous communities. We have become aware of deaths in custody and family trauma. Others of us have seen in the media reports about government monies allocated but not fully used for the peoples’ needs - rather kept by the service providers. A Voice to Parliament opportunity means Indigenous people will be able to represent their own people regarding their needs and the use of public monies. We can all become more aware of the story for Indigenous people in our country by watching NITV, ABC and SBS programs presenting issues of the lives of the people who wish to walk alongside us into the future. Wally Sharman, Mornington
Heartfelt approach From the heart is what is needed for the Voice to succeed. Forget the rhetoric about the rights and wrongs from either side. When we look into our own hearts, we can see what needs to be done. We know that visiting far-flung areas and seeing the humpies isn’t working, either. The reason is that the bureaucrats and governments stopped listening long ago. Even though they saw the dire living conditions of no water, taps, or flooring, they did nothing. Simple living that you and I take for granted was not given to the Indigenous people. These are first Australians, and yet those who came long afterwards treated them as less than human. They brutalised them. They took their lands and continued to ignore the rights that are theirs, and destroyed a long heritage of truthtelling, stories from long ago. They are our people, our equals and as much as that will make some draw in their breath, that’s another truth. All we need to do is listen, open our hearts and recognise Indigenous people in the Constitution. It is the least we can do and what the Indigenous people ask of us. Anne Kruger, Rye
appeals. We don’t require another tier of bureaucracy with more red tape, delays and continuing unnecessary cost. The proposal is wrongly presented and unfairly conducted. Totally unnecessary for the federal government to waste at least $400 million on a referendum. Uncertainty who is Indigenous. To recognise past wrongs, aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders are now provided significantly more government benefits than other Australians. Between the last two government Census taken, there was a significant increase in the number of Australians identifying themselves as Indigenous. A Canberra Voice would make no difference compared to all the other Indigenous voices we already have. Voice totally unnecessary and a large financial waste of our taxes to conduct this referendum. The way to go is to vote No. Ian Smith, Tyabb
One and only chance We all have the right to express our opinion, but I was so saddened to see the photo of a group of No campaigners smiling and grinning so flippantly as if it is all a game (“No sign ‘disingenuous’” Letters 26/9/23). I dread to think how Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people feel seeing such images. No wonder the rate of calls to Indigenous helplines is multiplying. The referendum is no game: it is a critical point in our history, coming after decades of broken promises to provide Indigenous representation, and is potentially a once-only chance for our nation to reconcile with its past. This is serious business, a heavy responsibility on us all and no trivial matter. if the grinning group with their No placards can’t yet find it in their own hearts to accept an Indigenous Voice, they could follow the lead of distinguished Liberals who support the Indigenous Voice, including former prime minister Malcolm Turnbull, former shadow attorney-general Julian Leeser, former Liberal Minister for Indigenous Australians, Ken Wyatt, Kate Carnell AO who was ACT Liberal Chief Minister, current Liberal politicians like Bridget Archer and various frontbenchers, the Premier of Tasmania, Jeremy Rockliff, and Senator Andrew Bragg who has written that Voice is a liberal concept and a fair idea. It also happens to be what the majority (polled at 80 per cent) of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people believe will help improve their lives. Maureen Donelly, Mornington
No two ways Once again your correspondent is trying to have it both ways (“No sign ‘disingenuous’” Letters 26/9/23). This is the lady who stood for parliament and won fewer votes than informal. She quotes the Uluru statement as saying (inter alia) “When we have power over our destiny our children will flourish”. She then goes on to say, “we are simply being asked whether Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people should … make representations to parliament and executive …” Making representations is not the same as having power over your destiny – ask any lawyer. I suggest that when those children are made to attend school every day, when they are not abused or have to live in a household where mental/physical/sexual abuse is rife they will flourish. As for [Mornington MP] Chris Crewther “insisting white Australia knows best” – well, I’m happy to listen to what those pesky Aboriginals Senator Jacinta Nampijinpa Price and Nyunggai Warren Mundine say. Jack Wheeler, Mornington
It’s now personal I’m sure The Voice is very important to most First Nations peoples. To me it’s a bit of a distraction. However Liberal HQ, who spammed me this week with the opposition leader’s words Don’t know? vote no has just made this personal. Encouraging me to remain ignorant and blindly reject anything I don’t know about is one hell of an insult to anyone’s intelligence. Especially when the actual proposed changes to the Constitution are so uncomplicated: “In recognition of ... the First Peoples of Australia: there shall be a body, to be called the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice; [which] may make representations to the parliament and the executive government of the Commonwealth on matters relating to [these] peoples; the parliament shall, subject to this Constitution, have power to make laws with respect to matters relating to the ... Voice, including its composition, functions, powers and procedures.” That’s it. That’s all it is. A bit of recognition and an ear for our indigenous people, which until now has been missing in our constitution. So, what’s all the fuss? I will be voting Yes. I’m more concerned that the fossil fuel industry already has a much bigger voice in our parliament that the Voice could ever gain. Tom Hunt, Oak Flats, NSW
Voice not needed A Voice to Parliament would have no difference to Indigenous Australians. There is no need to create (another) Voice to Parliament for our indigenous Australians. We are already one nation, one country and one people where everyone should be treated the same. I fear the Canberra Voice would push for fundamental changes to Australia at huge potential cost. The Canberra Voice would probably want to institute reparations, High Court appeals, abolish Australia Day, and Australian flag. Almost certainly [it would] lead to conflict with heritage laws and a demand for treaty, which would result in massive compensation. When it’s realised Canberra Voice doesn’t work, however it’s too late to go back, as it’s in the constitution. Australia’s Indigenous people are already well represented and currently have a voice. Government has always been able to listen to Indigenous people and provide them with whatever they wish. A Canberra Voice would only bring expectation for the federal government to support all requests, and if refused likely awkward court
Wrong way, no road for a boat POLICE were called to move a boat left high and dry on the Esplanade, Mornington, last Friday night, 29 September. The boat was on the road opposite the bowls club around 8.30pm after it had been offered
“free” in Sages Road, Baxter. It is believed the boat may have fallen off a trailer in Mornington but the driver of the vehicle towing it may not have noticed. Picture: Gary Sissons
100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Carrum Council and bathing costumes - Mayor’s Straight Talk Compiled by Cameron McCullough AT last Monday night’s meeting of the Carrum Borough Council the Royal Life-Saving Society brought under notice the following resolution which was unanimously agreed to at the first annual conference of the Royal Life-Saving Society relative to new style of bathing costumes. Cr. Beardsworth moved no action be taken, and said his motion was recently supported by the Chelsea Life Saving and Swimming Club, the Carrum Foreshore Trust, and also at a function of the council. He saw no objection to the twopiece Canadian costume as provided in the regulations. He was sorry to see adverse remarks regarding the Mayor in a Melbourne paper, and thought the remark “Wowserish” was not justified and unwarranted. Cr. Boyd said in regard to the Foreshore Trust that Mr. Green had pointed out that the two costumes were about the same, removing the objection of the top piece coming up and showing body. Cr. Williams said one could see more than that at football. The Mayor said that Cr. Boyd could see more back of the ladies showing in a theatre in 5 minutes than he would see on the beach in 5 years. He did not see why the council should alter its laws to suit the Royal Life-Saving Society, and thought they (the Society) would be better occupied in its primary object than in teaching municipalities how they should attire their residents. There was no objection to the dress, and if they wanted it advertised they should get the salesmen to exhibit it
in their shape.
*** Frankston Police Court Tuesday, 2nd October. Before Messrs. C. W. Grant (chairman), P. Wheeler and J. Brown, J.sP. Albert Verney, of Frankston, appeared to show cause why he should not contribute to the support of his child, Gladys Verney, aged 16 years, who is at present a ward of the State. Examined by Senior-Constable Culhane, witness said he had no means and no property. He followed the occupation of fisherman, and had not earned more than 5/- per week since June last. He received 8/4 per fortnight from the Repatriation Department. He suffered from rheumatism and deformity of the feet. Witness said he was supported by his wife, who owned freehold property in Prahran valued at £900. The Chairman: There appears to be money in the family, and I don’t see why the State should be called on to maintain this child. On the application of SeniorConstable Culhane, the case was adjourned for three months. STOLEN FURS. Robert Burke was charged with the larceny of a fur coat and stole, valued at £18, the property of Miss Vera Patroni, of the Pier Hotel, Frankston. Senior-Constable Culhane conducted the prosecution. The facts were that accused and a companion visited the Pier Hotel on Sunday, 23rd September. They had tea and booked a bed and breakfast, giving instructions to be called early on the following morning.
When the licensee went to the room occupied by accused at 6.30 on Monday morning the door was open and there was no sign of accused or his companion. Mrs. Margaret Robertson, licensee of the International Hotel, Melbourne, said that on Monday, 24th September, accused, in company with a woman, visited her hotel and offered to sell the fur coat and stole (produced) for £1. When witness refused to buy, acccused said he would make the articles a present to the lady with him, and he put the coat on her. The lady left the hotel wearing the coat. Constable Carroll, stationed at Russell Street, said he arrested accused in Exhibition Street. He was in company with a woman named Mabel Barton. She was wearing the fur coat and stole (produced). When questioned, the woman said she got the coat and stole from accused. Accused said he had not seen the coat and stole before. Both were arrested and charged with being in possession of goods suspected of having been stolen. In the pocket of the coat was an envelope with Miss V. Patroni on it. Miss Patroni came to Russell Street and identified the property as belonging to her. The two accused were brought before the City Bench on a charge of unlawful possession, and by direction of the Bench the accused was charged with larceny of the coat and stole. Miss Patroni identified the coat and stole produced as her property. On the Sunday in question she had worn the articles, and on returning from a walk placed them on the bed in her room.
She did not miss the wearing apparel until Tuesday, 25th. She then made a search and found that a diamond ring was also missing. Peter Patroni, licensee of the Pier Hotel, Frankston, identified the accused as the man who booked the room on the 23rd, with instructions to be called at a quarter-to-seven o’clock. When witness went to call him at 6.30a.m. the room was empty. Accused pleaded not guilty, and was committed for trial at the Supreme Court on 15th October. Accused asked for bail. Senior Constable Culhane objected; accused was a bird of passage. If bail was granted it should be for a substantial sum. Bail was allowed in two sureties of £200 each. *** THE fortnightly social organised by the Frankston Fire Brigade took place in the Mechanics’ hall last Monday night, when, despite the stormy weather, there was a large attendance. Visitors were present from Mornington and Carrum and an enjoyable evening was spent to music supplied by Messrs. Johnston and Laging. Chief–Officer Marshall, of the Country Fire Brigades Board, was in attendance and held an inspection of the brigade. He put the men through various drill exercises, and was well pleased with their efficiency. Mr Marshall, in a short address, strongly criticised the action of the local authorities in allowing the valves in the fire-plugs to remain in a choked and neglected condition. He pointed out that he had previously drawn attention to this matter, and it was time that the Shire Coun-
cil, in fairness to the brigade and the public generally, took steps to remedy the trouble. In their present condition the plugs would probably be ineffective in case of fire. *** AN alleged “news” sheet, published down Moorabbin way, and boasting a limited “complimentary” circulation in Frankston, makes barefaced raids on the columns of “The Standard” every week. We have frequently complained of this unscrupulous pirating, and in last Friday’s “Standard’ a little trap was set which closes the “scissors and paste artist” in all his shamelessness. Last Thursday “The Standard” reporter attended the special meeting of the shire council, held to consider health matters affecting Frankston. There was no other pressman present. In anticipation of our report being copied we purposely inserted several minor inaccuracies, and these appeared in our Friday’s issue. Sure enough the Moorabbin “hash” was served up today with the earmarked errors carefully re-produced, without one word of acknowledgment. Other items which we did not care to mutilate for identification purposes were annexed from our columns and dished up as original reports. It is time the “Copyright Act” was amended to protect legitimate local newspaper enterprise and adequately penalise the shameless and unfair tactics of outside production. *** From the pages of the Frankston and Somerville Standard, 3 & 5 Oct 1923

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES
A Letter To My Fictional Son Who Lost His Phone In A Taxi. Apparently By Stuart McCullough THERE have been a lot of text messages. They arrive from a number I don’t recognise with a message that reads: ‘Hi Dad, it’s your son. I left my phone in a taxi and this is my new number. I have an urgent bill I need to pay. Please contact me.’ It’s a message that shakes me to the core of my being. I’m overwhelmed with worry at the spectacular misfortune that has befallen my offspring. So deep and profound is my sense of panic that I barely know where to start – should I call the embassy, the Army or roll up their sleeves and get on a plane to sort through the whole catastrophic mess? But then I remembered – I don’t have a son. It’s a scam, obviously. Scammers are everywhere these days. Seemingly, they live in your phone and emails. There’s not a week that goes by that I don’t get a phone call with an automated message threatening all manner of harm from some Government agency if I don’t pay them a sum of money immediately, or a text at three in the morning saying my package could not be delivered. But even for scammers, attempting to mine parental concern for profit is not so much scraping the bottom of the barrel as it is digging right through it. I could, of course, ignore the message. But then there would be more messages. It was best to tackle it head on with a message to my fictional child. “Son, we need to talk. Your message announcing you’d lost your phone did not come as a surprise to your mother and me. Rather, it’s just the latest instalment in a seemingly inexhaustible supply of inexcusably stu-

pid behaviour that commenced shortly after you were born and persists to the present day. Put simply, son, you are a bona fide idiot of unimaginable proportions. You must think your parents are fools. By our count, this is the eighth time in the past three weeks that you have lost your phone. Clearly, you are mistaking it for a Frisbee, as nothing else could explain the rate at which you seem to surrender possession of your mobile. It’s almost as though you’re losing it on purpose. Drastic measures are now required. Clearly, you should abandon mobile phones entirely and return to a simpler, easier to use technology. Which is why I’ve taken the step of purchasing you a pager. Now, if someone needs to communicate with you, they can send a message to your pager and you can make your way to the nearest payphone. Say what you will about a payphone, but no one ever left one in the back of a taxi. That you also have an urgent bill to pay comes as no surprise. Presumably you have accumulated a significant debt with the taxi company to whom you so recklessly bequeathed your phone. This may sound harsh, but I feel that the best course of action in these circumstances is to withhold any help (financial or emotional) and let the folks at the taxi company do their worst to shake a few dollars loose. Who knows? If they succeed, I might try the same thing the next time I catch you sneaking into the shed to steal my power tools. Which brings me to my next point. The time has come for you to stop coming to the house. I would refer to these ‘visits’ save that I don’t feel the term is
appropriate having regard for the devastation these sporadic appearances inflict not only on your mother and I but the pets, also. The cat is upset for days after you darken our door. Come to think of it, you’ve never been good with animals. Your childhood resulted in the demise of more goldfish than I can count. It took you a mere fifteen minutes to lose the budgerigar (maybe you mistook it for an iPhone) and there was the day that continues to live in infamy when you glued a guinea pig to each hand as a pair of improvised gloves simply because you said you were ‘cold’. Joanie and Chachi were never the same after that. For the good of the species, I made a point of never having a guinea pig for a pet ever again. We’ve taken a vote and the results are clear. You’re out. You’re no longer a member of this family and we will be forgetting your name. In the event you have any procedural concerns, I can confirm that this outcome was reached by secret ballot with your mother and I having one vote each. The result was unanimous. So, my child, farewell and best of luck. In the event that you do, somehow, manage to retrieve your phone, please ensure that you delete my number. It is, we feel, for the best. Yours faithfully, The Artist Formerly Known As Dad” The scammers have not responded. Granted, it’s probably extreme to disown your fictional child, but I feel that his imaginary life is such that a bit of tough love is required. Presumably they’ve lost their phone in the back of a taxi. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Lynn era to end at Seaford SOCCER
By Craig MacKenzie THE longest serving president in Seaford United’s history will step down at the club’s AGM next month. Willie Lynn and wife Liz have been involved with Seaford since 1978 and Willie is in the 16th year of a second stint as president having previously served for 10 years. Liz has served several terms on the committee and has turned her hand to almost every volunteer job at the club. The Lynns arrived in Melbourne from their native Scotland in August 1977 and North Seaford Reserve became their home away from home just a few months later. It’s been like that ever since. But the expectation of leaving the local area and moving to Pakenham within the next six months has prompted the Lynns’ curtain call and they seem comfortable with that idea. “I’ll still be involved in a small way and I think Liz will be the same,” said Willie Lynn. “I think we’ll leave the club in a fairly strong position. “Financially we’re okay – we’re holding our own – and we’ve got around 20 teams at the club which isn’t too bad.” This year the senior team finished third in State 5 South and went down 3-2 in its promotion play-off against Old Melburnians after conceding an 89th-minute goal. It was Seaford’s first season back in State League ranks after announcing in February 2022 that it had withdrawn from Victoria’s premier community club competition. A new squad assembled under the watchful eye of head coach Paul Williams and assistant Steve Keenan had gone within a whisker of clinching promotion and there’s a growing feeling that it can take that extra step next year. So the Lynns can point to positive signs both onfield and off as they prepare to hand over the reins. But one club stalwart who isn’t stepping down is Mornington head coach Adam Jamieson. For the past few weeks Jamieson has weighed up his options having held informal discussions with two

other clubs. “When you’ve been there for so long you start thinking if you need another challenge and trying to be unselfish about it you wonder if the club needs to find someone else,” he said. Jamieson told the Mornington committee on Friday afternoon that he had decided to stay. It was just as well as he had no inkling of what was to take place later that evening at the club’s presentation night when he was given life membership of the Dallas Brooks outfit. “Probably for the first time I had a couple of options but I didn’t want to do the wrong thing by Mornington and waited until everyone was back on board. “We sat down on Wednesday night and had a really good chat for a couple of hours then around 1.30 on Friday afternoon I told the club that I wanted to stay.” And Jamieson already has an eye on next season as he sets out again on the long journey towards securing an NPL berth. “We probably need to bring another two or three in but I don’t think we’d
need more than that. “The ones we absolutely want are going to stay and I’ve already had a chat with a lot of the players. “It’s a very good dressing room and when a player like David Stirton comes up to you and says it’s the best dressing room he’s been involved with that tells you something.” Friday evening’s presentation night put an exclamation mark on the outstanding first season from Scottish import Rory Currie who won the club’s best and fairest, players’ player and golden boot awards. Langwarrin also has finalised its senior coaching staff for next season. Head coach Jamie Skelly has three assistants – Simon Storey, Adam Poole and Ben Caffrey – Lou Kastner is goalkeeping coach and Peter Tuckett is in charge of high performance. Caffrey retains his role as under21s head coach with Adam Poole and Alex Van Heerwarden as his assistants and Sean Skelly continues as team manager. “I’m excited to have a coaching staff with experience at the very top level in Victoria and Australia who

also understand the culture of Langwarrin as a club,” Jamie Skelly said. “Together we can continue to build on the high performance culture that has been created here.” In State 3 recently relegated Frankston Pines last week advertised the position of head coach of the senior men’s squad. For the past few weeks former Peninsula Strikers gaffer Donn Delaney has been touted as the man most likely to succeed Kevin “Squizzy” Taylor. It was thought that Delaney would already have been announced as the new coach but the committee decided to seek expressions of interest. It’s believed that he is one of seven candidates who have applied for the position. Pines also advertised for junior boys players in the under-15 and under-17 age groups. The club remains determined to develop a junior program. Pines president Lee Davies confirmed last week that the club would not need to vacate Monterey Reserve next season due to major drainage

work carried out by council. “The way it’s being done should take around six weeks and work is due to start in mid-October,” he said. There also is news concerning Taylor as he pursues a coaching appointment for next season. He was interviewed for the Doveton job but the Waratah Reserve outfit chose former Melbourne City, Western Sydney Wanderers and Dandenong City attacking midfielder Nick Kalmar. Doveton made the Kalmar announcement late last week. By then Taylor’s focus had switched to Comets Stadium and the vacant head coaching position there. Taylor always is well prepared for interviews and he was able to present a coaching team when formally submitting his expression of interest. It’s believed that Doncaster Rovers coach Steve Aivaliotis and wellknown goalkeeping coach Peter Blasby were part of Taylor’s team. In State 5 news Mount Eliza and Bryce Ruthven parted company last week with Ruthven keen to keep coaching. “There are a few reasons why I won’t be coaching there but mainly because I don’t want to go through another season like the last and couldn’t see things changing,” Ruthven said. “There are a few challenges coaching at that club. “Having no support and expecting the senior coach to do everything isn’t the right way to run a men’s program.” Ruthven is a former Somerville Eagles player but won’t be an applicant for the head coaching role there which recently became vacant.
