What's even better is that they're just covering good farming land with houses.
That's just a fucking smart idea. Good all-round.

XRW I agree fully on the Barbagello thing. It's actually been talked of a few times in previous years. If it does close down this doesn't leave us with many options except the MC circuit which doesnt appear big enough for proper racing and Collie powerhouse which is a long way(imho) from being a good enough facility to host racing.

Hopefully this other circuit they've been raving on will get developed down in bunbury as that would be a worthwhile excersion for a w/end or so

if you told everyone moving to sydney to fuck off then it wouldn't be a problem

I like the fact that he gave Knowles (the Planning and Development Minister) $38,000 and then he magically gets approval to build thousands of slum houses.

My thoughts exactly.

Seriously its stories like this that make you wonder if there are actually ANY rich people/politicians that arent criminals.

Ok so its not criminal against any law, but its criminal to us!

[meggala]

well what greedy c♣nts.
then their super rich kids will be looking for somewhere to race their cars.

Guys these people who own the land have worked pretty hard all their life, whats wrong with them selling up their land and making money. I doubt anyone here would pass up the chance to make themself very rich and set up their whole family for generations to come.
