Attempts to keep the town safe have been made famous (or notorious) in the national press. And contrary to the view of some of our correspondents, the original notion was to protect the town, not have a party at the rest of the Shire’s expense, and much volunteer work went into making it so. Now that Council has withdrawn its funding, and local business looks unlikely to kick the can to any great degree, then we might expect a police lockdown to protect shopfronts if violence erupts, if the police can spare the offi cers. We might kiss the amenity of the beachfront goodbye if there is no voluntary team helping Council workers pick up litter.

Not a bad week at all for movies: 1. Hugh Jackman and Meg Ryan are charming in Kate & Leopold (Prime, Friday, 8.45pm), in which an 18th century duke fi nds himself in modern New York (as you do). 2. A young Mel Gibson and Sigourney Weaver get into trouble in the 1983 political thriller The Year Of Living Dangerously (Prime, Saturday, 11.35pm), set in Indonesia. 3. Hugh Grant and Martine McCutch- eon star in Richard Curtis’s clever comedy Love Actually (TEN, Sunday, 8.30pm). If you don’t like Hugh Grant, it’s worth it just for Bill Nighy’s portrayal of an aging rock star. Elsewhere SBS continues to explore the life and trials of witches on Sunday night, 1 2 3 followed, naturally, by Inspector Rex.

Land Tax The NSW land tax system is a very signifi cant issue facing residents in the Ballina s the North Coast Electorate and I have called on the NSW Labor Government to urgently reform how land tax is administered to take into account escalating land values. While I welcome the NSW Government’s decision to increase the tax-free threshold from $330,000 to $352,000, this move does not go far enough to alleviate the economic and social problems caused by land tax.
