I'm with you on this one mate. not only will it destroy the natural flow of water etc thru the channel it is going to give the good citizens of the gold coast extra rates to pay for it. The dredging that will have to take place will be done every second year to keep the Chanel open. Remember that big flood every now and then, what is going to happen to the area when that comes through.
Still nobody would of thought the old White Shoe brigade would ever get back in to business in Qld again. How did a Premier get into power without any stated policy? where we that pissed off with Captain Bligh and her Kremins that we would take on Newman. Still i suppose all those old retirees that are getting thrown out on the street from the state run eventide homes will be able to look forward to Bruce Flegg gloating on the new multi-million dollar cruise terminal whilst he is in his apartment in the good old USA, wonder if he will sponsor a homeless pensioner to the nosh up when they announce it. Easy way to get the State budget into a surplus, (why do we need a surplus when every nation is in debt) because that is the only way the New kids will keep the key in 3 years. Closing down nearly every fish habitat group that has had only good benefits for the state will set the fishing fraternity back years. Still we did ask for it letting the Bligh clowns run for so long, maybe next election people will think twice about voting their MP back in because they are too lazy to get involved .
