Bob Brown announces his retirement on Friday the 13th
I have always found Friday 13th to be pretty good days and today is no exception especially as Bob Brown has chosen today to announce his resignation .The only question is why now ?
It could be he feels after the carbon tax, with all its disastrous consequences has been implemented like the Lone Ranger "My work is done here" or that he knows the Greens will be slaughtered in the next election and if he bails out now he can escape blame or perhaps and this is my favourite and fervent hope , it is for health reasons.
