You have a responsibility as a locally elected deputy, but you also have a responsibility as the head of government.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The government, whether state or central, is elected. That means we have a responsibility to elect the right kind of leaders.
In my position as prime minister, I bear the highest responsibility for decisions.
Somebody has to take responsibility for being a leader.
The first responsibility of a leader is to define reality. The last is to say thank you. In between, the leader is a servant.
The job of mayor and Governor is becoming more and more like the job of university president, which I used to be; it looks like you are in charge, but you are not.
The responsibility for good government lies not just with governments themselves but also with every other part of the system they operate in, including media, non-governmental organisations and the public.
I have a responsibility as an elected governor to govern and when I say govern, that means to make sure that our citizens are safe and we need the federal government to step up and do their job. They need to secure our borders.
The most basic duty of government is to defend the lives of its own citizens. Any government that fails to do so is a government unworthy to lead.
I'm nobody's deputy. I am who I am. I'm my own person.
Responsibility, I believe, accrues through privilege.
