Why would you want tourists to disembark at Victor Harbor, 90 minutes away from Adelaide?

I've got an idea. Why don't they maintain the existing RAH buildings, and lease them out to UNISA, Adelaide Uni, Flinders Uni, and other higher education institutions? Could they convert some of the buildings into student accommodation? Both options will bring in money for the government and help re...

And mono, what's long shore drift? I'm sure with todays technology, where we can build all the marvelous things we have in this world, we could find a way to create a cruise ship terminal at the bay?

Leadership ballot is on. Rudd is on tv live now, has just said he will contest it this time. He seems VERY happy at the moment, perhaps a hint that he has the numbers to get over the line and finally we can see the end of the red headed witch? She has promised to quit politics if she loses...WE CAN ...

In other words, what we all knew, the Advertiser was simply wasting resources again to create controversy to lift their bottom line.
Even less surprising is that they did not bother to check their facts before publishing their article.

I don't disagree it should be referred to as marriage, in the common meaning of the word. The reason I clarified by saying civil services or whatever, with a celebrant, is because I don't think that religious insitutions, like the Catholic Church for example, should be forced by government to accept...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I am sure petrol prices bear no relationship with the carbon tax. Plus the bulk of electricity price increases have been because of infrastructure cost increases, not the carbon tax. You have no reason not to be angry, but not everything is the government's fault. I nev...

A ferry terminal? Moving the cruise ship terminal to Glenelg from Outer Harbor would be better. A much nicer entry to Adelaide for ship-born visitors. Pretty sure that Glenelg is unsuitable for that because the water's not deep enough there. They can dredge a channel so cruise ships can come in, bi...

Talk about thin-skinned; a journo writes an article about a better and cheaper bridge than ours. All energy on this forum is wasted on throwing dirt on the guy who wrote the piece and on his rag. Instead we should learn from it and make sure that we build something outstanding next time. Did you re...

But Rev, unless you are a large mining corporation or a producer of carbon pollution, neither of those taxes apply to you. Electricity bills increased as a result of the carbon tax. The cost was passed on to me. Therefore I am pissed off. I'm even more pissed off that petrol's going up. Seems like ...

What's that got to do with same sex marriage?

Maybe it's just me, maybe I'm just tired from working all day with this migraine, but what the hell is so hard about this issue that governments can't manage to sort out and pass legislation allowing same sex marriages? Make it as simple as having a civil ceremony with a celebrant, that is recognize...

Posting updates on loads of developments on SSC. Why don't people post any more there? After all, A LOT of stuff is happening right now! The other cities should know we are changing! Also, I've found it is a great way to showcase the city :D Because SSC is crap. Don't tell everyone Adelaide is chan...

The only reason we got a mining tax, a carbon tax, and god knows what other taxes these asshole politicians have hit us with, is simply to fund their policies like the NDIS. The government does not have the funds to pay for things like that, so we pick up the tab with new taxes and levy's. I'm sure ...

I'll believe it when I see it, Con Makris is as reliable as a Rolex from Thailand! I'm sure his got his reasons for all the delays. But far out, would he just shut up with the announcements every so often? The only announcements he should be making from here on in, is that construction has started....
