‘A TERRITORY cattleman has shrugged off threats to prosecute him for towing his son on a waterski with a helicopter.
Milton Jones, 46, said the Canberra-based Civil Aviation Authority was wasting its money.
“It’s a witch-hunt,” he said.
The authority has asked for unedited footage of the waterski-ing stunt shown in Network Ten’s Keeping Up With the Joneses.
Mr Jones, who owns the 700sq km Coolibah station on the Victoria River, said he was towing his 15-year-old son Beau.
“He was home from boarding school. I only see him for a few weeks each year and we were just having a bit of fun…’
Apparently some viewers of the TV show complained. The culture of the Northern Territory has been under attack for some time by wet PC southerners who’ve moved to the Territory for the job opportunities and the cheaper housing. The useless wankers won’t rest until they’ve destroyed all the things which make Territorians unique and turned the NT into simply a warmer version of those socialist cesspits South Australia and Victoria. (Milton owns Gecko and Wabbit’s favourite pub, too. Where Wabbit once sat at an outside table in the middle of the barbecue area, drinking beer and teaching one of the lady managers to shoot a Weatherby .308. Nobody turned a hair. )
