Evan et al,

This so called poll is not meaningful asking a very simple question on a
subject that has many shades of grey, and at a time when many are
experiencing shock, grief or anger. It is, in my view, a cynical media
beat-up driven by Neocon ideology (I declare my interest as on who believes
in market solutions for most issues but also Govt driven solutions where
markets fail or are inefficient) and good old grubby ratings. 

As Evan says ignoring it is more appropriate.

Regards,

Graham Buchan

An alternative option is to not justify this divisive madness in the
Oz, and give it the ignoring that it deserves.
