Deputy Mayor Ramia - I don't want to be Mayor ...

In yet another sign of the impending shakeup of councillor positions at the Toowoomba City Council, Deputy Mayor Ramia is quoted today as saying he 'wasn't interested in the mayoralty'.

It is common knowledge in Toowoomba circles that the Deputy Mayor has long held aspirations of getting the top job once the current Mayor moved on.

Seem things have changed.

Perhaps the rigours of the water debate have tired the Deputy Mayor.

Perhaps he knows that you can't threaten people, leave the evidence for all to hear, and still expect people to vote for you.

It's not too hard to determine the precise moment when any possibility of running for the top job became a pipe dream ...

Vote for me or I'll drop a rock on you - nope that wouldn't attract many votes.

He said that he was going to resign his position as Chairman of the Water Port Folio on Council regarding water matters if the Yes recycling vote did not get up - well it did not and he is still there as chairman - he must go as Councillor never mind trying his luck as Mayor

I'll echo the view of many and state I won't be voting for anyone that supports making us drink recycled effluent so I guess Ramia has no chance of even being on the team after next march.

This fellow got away with a crime and he knows it. Once a bully always a bully. We need a new team and Snow as the leader.
