@FastFless Let’s face it - outside a “ protest” constituency, Do the greens ever deliver anything ?

@bne_lordmayor Welcome back on the team - the Council election is now over

[Reg Neil @RJNeil]

@bne_lordmayor @councillorallan Adrian Shrinner - the Courier Mail headline and photo is enough : you have lost your way

[Reg Neil @RJNeil]

@bne_lordmayor @councillorallan Insinkerator prices to increase as well as the Urban utilities (85% owned by BCC) maintenance bill

[Reg Neil @RJNeil]

Insinkerator prices set to skyrocket and QUU infrastructure cracks under the increased processing requirements.

This has to change

Did you know a secret group of property professionals and LNP mates comprise the Better Suburbs Initiative Board - they make secret planning decisions given only to the LNP. They cost 💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰 and are unaccountable. They should go @jackmckay100

[Nicole Johnston @CrNicJ]

Hey @haydenjohnson94 @eastTMoore @jackmckay100
I just moved this urgency motion to help cut costs @brisbanecityqld and preserve operational expenditure. @bne_lordmayor and the LNP voted against even debating these savings. He’d rather cut footpaths, community events and more…

@CRLegal86 @secureparking Unbelievable - exploiting the market to its ridiculous limit.

A thoughtful article -On balance I still think the greater Brisbane Concept has served us well. On the downside, in more recent times I blame excessive power and funds being directed to a centralised “presidential” style Lord Mayoral office by a supine (LNP) Council Chamber.

[Brisbane Times @brisbanetimes]

When Brisbane’s councils merged into a single entity in 1924, it was applauded as sensible. But what have we gained and lost in the “great experiment”?

@bne_lordmayor Long Overdue . Why the LNP originally imposed these exorbitant fees in the first place is beyond me.

[Reg Neil @RJNeil]

@CrNicJ @Kara__Cook Small minded Lord Mayor

Labor Stalwart Les Bryant doesn’t miss Jonathan Sri in his letter to the editor in todays CM.

When the Brisbane Metro was announced in 2016, we were promised an underground subway system to rival London.

Six years and $800m overbudget later, and we have a collapsing 200m tunnel and sixty overseas busses that won't arrive until 2034.

@councillorallan Maybe they wanted to support something more in line with community expectations than what your Quirk/Shrinner team agenda manufactured.

[Nicole Johnston @CrNicJ]

@team_schrinner Really why haven’t you release anytime table information then? And why are 10% of residents actually worse of under the route changes you have released. That’s actually less not more.

[Graham Perrett @GrahamPerrettMP]

Huge turnout at The Clubhouse to discuss the LNP Council’s plans to fundamentally change the character of the Moorooka, Salisbury and Nathan suburbs. Anger that the Lord Mayor’s secret Gang of Four is deciding that pre-WW2 character homes no longer matter. @SteveGriffiths_
