The Perth Thread - Part 4

Did you see that article in the local paper (not The West Aus) about a forum on the 15th to discuss ways to make crossing Charles st safer/better? I personally don't and have never (even as a child) had an issue with crossing it. Don’t even get me started. Yes it’s difficult to cross and I’m...

Only weirdos and cretins like your Mantis types ride on the bus.

Careful you will cop an earful from someone who proudly claims they stick up for the working class man whilst shitting on the areas where most working class people live.

I'd use public transport if I worked in the city but apart from that its pointless as the travel time is double what a car can do.

Damn, Crust has gone downhill the last year or two. I reckon Domino's is better, and that's saying something!

Avoid if you can

 

[Jimmy_the_Gent]

Whoa - https://www.perthnow.com.au/news/wa...collapses-at-curtin-university-ng-b881692329z

That doesn't sound good at all.

 

[YippeeYiYeo]

Apparently it was under construction. Tradies have a dangerous job

 

[kane249]

Glass roof collapsed apparently, as above it was under construction

 

[Van_Dyke]

yeah it was at the new architecture building/student hub (with accomodation, retail etc). simply awful

I wondered why my drive to manning, for noodles was such a nightmare

I thought it was due to merging

Ben Roberts Smith is Fk'd

I had dinner on Sunday night with ex military mates including SAS, Pusser's and those now ranked walking the corridors of Canberra

According to the corridors of Canberra:
1) medals striped
2) serious charges
3) verdict already decided by most


The ADF has two options with scenarios like this
1) Sweep under the carpet and maintain the important trust of the international community to enable "hearts and minds"; or if it can't be swept
2) prosecute and punish




Kerry Stokes may regret being associated with BRE and so to may Basil Zemplis

 

[Beerfish]

Ok

 

[Off The Couch]

I’m disappointed, I really liked him as a hero - just looked the part

Just feel contempt now

I would be shocked though if he is prosecuted

Radio and TV host Basil Zempilas elected new Perth Lord Mayor

Radio and TV host Basil Zempilas is chosen as the new Lord Mayor of Perth, in the first election in more than two years since the former council was stood down by the State Government.

How embarrassment.

Part-time Mayor taking his marching orders from the State's biggest media baron will be an interesting social experiment, I guess.

Agreed.

I voted for Reynolds. Used to play poker with him way back. Good guy.

Turnout was pretty poor - apathy the bane of society

 

[Noobz0r]

I dislike first past the post voting.

 

[Beerfish]

Turnout was pretty poor - apathy the bane of society

30% I heard.

Edit: just read the article. 41%. Much more respectable..

 

[Scotland]

So it was a close result and no one is running with Basil winning by a nose?

 

[gaskin]

Did people just assume big snoz winning was a foregone conclusion so they didn't bother voting?
