Pollies given the sign

Word got around that a contingent of pollies and bureaucrats where on their way to Bruny Island this morning for the opening of the new Bruny Island Medical Centre.

Ferry Road residents took advantage of the opportunity to do a bit more lobbying.

Lara Giddings was in the contingent and suggested that it was time to take down the signs seeing that Labor had already committed $8 million to Fixing Ferry Road.  I don’t think so Lara.  We will take down the signs when we see an excavator arrive to start work on the Road.  In the meantime Labor still have to retain government and we are yet to hear what the Libs position is on Ferry Road.  We know they say they are right behind us but let’s see the colour of your money Will.

This just about says it all

And there was even a message for Kingborough Council who decided at their November meeting to once again investigate the viability of a foreshore walkway.

A promise of  $8 million to Fix Ferry Road might sound like the battle is won.  I don’t think so.  Word on the street is that the outcome of  the election is likely to result in 10 Labor, 10 Liberal and 5 Greens seats (you heard it here first).  That means a fair period of turmoil so it is essential to keep the wheel squeaking.
