The Public Service is smaller than under John Howard & I agree with Glyn Davis - its work is honourable & necessary.
Senior coalition members say 36,000 jobs will be cut.
These cuts would be devastating for the ACT & 🇦🇺ns seeking support from services.

But I reckon >95% of market customers get there by car, with the expectation that it will be convenient to shop, drop stuff into their car, and drive back home. Aren’t they just catering to the majority of their clientele?
The Fyshwick Fresh Food Market in Canberra, Australia is a classic case of car optimised, pedestrian neglecting design.
The market is centred on the car park. Car parks also take up space that could be used for more stores/stalls.

These days I feel it begins to look a lot 'less' like Christmas in the capital. Its like our local gov doesn't go out of its way to decorate the streets of the city like they use too.
