Is it in our best interests that multi-national companies take it upon themselves to by-pass Local Government and submit their proposals directly to the Planning Minister - Justin Madden?
Our iconic history is being cleverly eroded and each cornerstone of our pride being seen to be corrupted by the very people who should be searching out for alternatives - not removing the lungs of our city to be replaced with glass and cement boxes.
Apathy is not an option, we all have the capacity to have a say, let us do so before we find our history no longer available to us in the material sense, just a memory for those who remember and no record for after we are long gone.
