Both major parties are probably going to pretend the Olympics doesn't exist until after the election. Most likely, they'll have focus group data telling them it's a major turn-off for voters.Qld cricket fans forced to watch at home on the tv while all the action is interstate.....just like the Lions supporters that can't get tickets anymore who have to watch at home on tv more & more....we'll probably hear next the AFL shift the Lions qualifying final (if we get one) to the MCG due to lack of facilities/capacity here...what a stuff up by Gov't if only the Libs looked more promising but I fear they are equally as asleep at the wheel...
After the election they'll get on with the job of selling whatever plan they are/have formulated and find a way to do it. I'm not sure what that will entail for Labor given their previous committment to mediocrity but I can definitely see state and local levels getting together and being able to package Vic Park as the most cost-efective solution, whether that's entirely public/IOC money or whether they get private business involved. I'm no great fan of privatisation, but after seeing what Stadiums Queensland get away with, I'm thinking it could work out better.
