Mixed traffic vs dedicated ROW?

It always interests me how the welcoming atmosphere of Martini’s contrasts with the faceless boozers in Pottersville, the progressive spectre of prohibition was still very fresh in the memory in 46

It’s a fundamentally New Deal movie, in that it is humanistic and anti-monopoly in the robber baron sense, but it still contains plenty of traditional social conservatism

Unfortunately this isn’t true, One Nation got a higher two-party preferred in Hunter than the Nats did.

50%, depends on if the conservatives cancel it because it’s woke or whatever

Green line extension to Dorval when?

Seems eminently winnable for either side in 2028, though the first prefs for both the major parties are quite low

As far as I can tell, it’s more about the environmental approvals than actual construction. It’s still a long way from happening

I could definitely see light rail being their next pivot, but I think they realise the inner suburbs will be their base at the next election and don’t want to activate the nimbys

East Wanneroo as a branch off the Ellenbrook line is pretty rubbish tbh, it should be tunnelled from the city to Mirrabooka then run elevated

Where the party room votes on who they want to lead them, especially when there is contention around the current leader. The Victorian Libs are experts at the craft

Needs to be more development between the city and Bayswater, can’t let those frequent trains go to waste

That’s basically the Labor strategy right now and it’s given us 94 seats, you may lose one or two seats on your flank but you gain many more in the centre

Clive would be licking his lips

Hopefully Miles pulls it off in 2028, this government is atrocious

Elevating the line would probably get the nimbys riled up but would by far be the best option

Perth’s solutions are so obvious and low-cost compared to every other city in the country it’s frustrating seeing them being put off. Light rail to Scarborough, Claremont, Cannington and Morley, orbital lines to the north and south, and a tunnelled Wanneroo line would be transformational

Maybe April, don’t want to step on WA’s shoes

Sangas are fine if you don’t overstuff them, plus wrapping them in paper is a pretty good middle ground
