Well, since you asked…

If you want to bring about aviation changes by threatening to run against Mr Abbott in his seat, please stop saying that the last thing you want to do is go into politics. Kinda takes a bit of the edge off the threat, if you know what I mean.

Also, before you name and shame us folks who have taxable incomes above $1million but claim no deductions for charity, could you please advise how one claims tax deductions for:
- doing Angel Flights
- cooking and cleaning at charity kitchens
- donations that we want to remain anonymous?

Also, could you advise how claiming a tax deduction for charitable works contributes to society? By not claiming the deduction, doesn’t that mean I pay more tax and therefore leave more money in the public purse to spend on public services?

By the way: genuine congratulations for the Aust Day award. But just remember what happened to the Manhatto Indians and why.
