Fitzy,with the most arrogant punchable face on the planet.
New stadiums create hundreds of on site temp. jobs and dozens of new permanent jobs.Where was Fitzy when Perth spent over $1bn on their new stadium for a city 1/3 the size of Sydney?Or when tens of millions were spent and millions wasted on Blacktown for GWS and Spotless and the SCG al used by the fumblers?
Did not hear or see his concerns about $600m on Adelaide Oval expenditure?
Will he comment when hundreds of millions are spent on upgrading the Opera House used by few in this city?
Did he whinge about $500m spent by Labor on the Kurnell desalination plant,whichj is lying idle and has done so from day one ,costing hundreds of thousands per annum just to sit there, doing diddly squat?
Did he complain about huge grants given each year running into the hundreds of millions to elite wealthy private schools, one of which he attended and ditto yours truly?
All this monyue could also have been used on hospitals, and schools in need and junior sport.
Did this bandana wearing egotistical dope ,(who pretends to be the hero of the downtrodden),who is famous for writing stories about the war and his love of France,ever write a story about Vichy and his code's flirtation with such an evil group to get rid of rugby league in France?
This is the same guy who with his spouse earns millions annually, so stuff tradespeople new and old given the opportunity to make a living on infrastructure,and appears oblivious to the fact the money spent on stadium is a one off for at least 25 years.It is a minor % of what will be expended on schools and hospitals over what would be 25 years.
Rest assured if union was top of the heap filling stadiums in this city, he would be missing in action on expenditure.
The only thing I would agree, the SFS needs refurbishing not rebuilding.
And as for Clover Moore complaining about money spent,she is the biggest waster of the public purse I have seen since I sucked my first gobful of oxygen from the nearest eucalyptus tree at Waverly Hospital.
