Subi Pulls No Punches - But We Should ALL Be Concerned

The City of Subiaco was a key player in keeping the Barnett Government something approaching honest in the initial forced local government amalgamation fiasco. Now it is being given payback in the City of Perth Bill, after Nedlands and Victoria Park objections to the original Bill were accommodated.

There has been no justification presented for forcing the Subiaco 3000 into the City of Perth and, as we have previously noted here (http://capitalcitycitizenscommittee.blogspot.com.au/2016/01/the-forgotten-17000.html), the remaining 17,000 Subiaco residents will be forced to pay a hefty price for the Premier's arrogance and vindictiveness.

Time for all who care about community to stand up and be counted. There is still time to write to your Upper House MPs (list, with email addresses, at http://www.parliament.wa.gov.au/parliament/memblist.nsf/WebCurrMembElectorate?OpenView&Start=1&Count=1000&Expand=1#1) telling them you object to the treatment of Subiaco residents, whether the 3000 being forced into the City of Perth or the 17,000 who will be forced to pay for it.
