I would suspect that the people of Waite voted for Martin Hamilton Smith, hoping he would be a minister, and he is. Ha ha !

As I have said previously it is not electoral boundaries or unfairness that keeps the liberals from government it's their own internal conflict that not only breads independents but then alienates them.

I looked around the CBD for options when the Kids left home, and ended up trading 4 bedrooms and 800sqm in suburbia for 100sqm of Torrens title town house in North Adelaide. If anything I miss my shed but there so many other benefits, I walk everywhere, probably eat out way more than I should but kn...

I see the federal Liberals are cutting $80bn from state funding, or $6bn to SA, = to 500 hospital beds and 3,000 teachers, if they can find 3,000 teachers or perhaps doctors and nurses who are still prepared to admit to voting Liberal they could be the first to volunteer to go.

It's a bit like North Tce I think there are less than a dozen parks on the northern side, removing these could create a dedicated bus lane or a bike lane. S...

Still think it was the parking that needed to be removed both sides of Frome road not 2 traffic lanes. It's gone from 4 car lanes 2 parking and 0 bike lanes to 2 cars lanes 2 parking lanes and 2 bike lanes. I think it should be 2 bike lanes and 4 traffic lanes. A concrete strip could still separate ...

I drove Frome street for the first time in peak hour tonight for regular Friday night dinner in Hutt street, unfortunately it was gridlock, it took 25 minutes to do 500m with both North South and East West traffic at a stand still of multiple sets of traffic lights.
