"Green Jobs" mushrooming over at DCC

Taxpayer-funded "Green Jobs" continue to spread like fleas over at the Ministry of Truth.

Here's the latest sample - again, good work if you can get it.

• Position number: VRN 60/09 - Web Content Manager - $83,600 to $106,506
• Position number: VRN 61/09 - Communication Assistant - Public Affairs Officer Level 1 - $56,430 to $65,835
• Position number: VRN 62/09 - Communication Account Assistant Public Affairs Officer Level 2 - $71,060 to $83,600
• Position number: VRN 63/09 - Communications Account Manager Public Affairs Officer Level 3 - $87,431 to $111,639
• Position number: VRN 64/09 - Director, Senior Public Affairs Officer Level 1 - $114,988
• Position number: VRN 65/09 - Director, Senior Public Affairs Officer Level 2 - $121,991

A couple of interesting issues are raised here. Firstly, since the enabling legislation hasn't been passed yet, why does the Climate Gestapo need to grow its empire so fast? Or is Due Process something that can be dispensed with when you are doing God's work in Saving the Planet?

Secondly, apart from the Web Content Manager, all of these positions are for "Public Relations" people. This surely begs the question: Why does the Ministry of Truth need so many spin doctors? Surely the Prime Minister could lend our Dear Leader some from his Department - it's not as if there is any shortage there.

At any rate, 6 more "green jobs" to be added to the count.
