The Perth Thread

[Defacto]

Like how Weller was going to leave last year?

oh he left... like a boomerang

Commercial radio is horrible but that 92.9 breakfast show needs to be dragged out on to the street and shot. The bird on there with her articles on perthnow are so rancid I can't help but listen/read them sometimes to get angry. It's like another version of cutting yourself I guess. Only her and Rebecca Judd bring out my inner misogynist.

It's a shame because she is genuinely a really nice person out in the real world. Her radio persona though is terrible and I wish someone would proof and rewrite her articles because they are terrible

Anyone know if its another lane they are adding on the mitchell soundbound at around ocean reef road? Jee I hope so, 2 lanes is just a nightmare

I'm sure she is nice but she's destroying the suffragette movement with every self indulgent 'be yourself!' article on perthnow she puts out.

The world would be a better place if everyone listened to Tony Delroy.

This is apparently him:

I had him pictured as an old dude with grey hair. Definitely balding, probably beardy.

Best show on the radio. Listened to it most nights since I was about 12

Outside of live sport I don't know why anyone would listen to the radio ever.

I work in the area. This made me very angry. Very angry indeed. Now I've got to catch up on work at home.

Did anyone really expect anything different? Telstra haven't invested anything in their network for a decade, and it was already old and falling apart back then.

I'm going to be pissed if I end up with an nbn node on my front verge

We live within 5km of the city and will I believe be one of the last to have nbn installed so hopefully they may have their crap together by then

If you're in Willetton, you're probably right.

Not a swing seat = Last priority on the NBN.

The station house gon be rockin tonight.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

The station house gon be rockin tonight.

140 people.

HOLY SHIT!

Guarentee you'll get it before me mate.

I live in Trigg, not only are we no where near having the NBN, we also dont even have ****ING ADSL, i have to live off ****ing Vivid Wireless, my 4g phone is quicker than that shit.

Thats what happens when you live in a limestone rich area, in a safe liberal seat with a **** load of old people, youre last in line for any internet roll outs.

Has that scumbag pedo been caught yet? Surely someone can identify him from that CCTV vision.

I heard on the radio this morning that they'd had an unprecedented number of calls and had been speaking to someone but they'd been released without charge.

A "man" is currently assisting police - https://au.news.yahoo.com/thewest/wa/a/31405836/man-in-custody-over-north-perth-sex-attack/

State that doesnt vote for Labor-Greens = WA no on any of the early NBN rollout of the the good stuff anyway.

But yeah, no NBN for us here.

 

[Scotland]

Not voting Labor isn't the problem. Brand and Fremantle have been Labor as long as I can remember, I doubt they are priority electorates either.

It hasn't but state wise we are the lowest Labor voting and without a large amount of winnable seats, say 4 or 5 they could win with a good swing to them they will never have much interest here federally when there is more seats in Western Sydney then that that are swinging.

Also on the flip side the Libs don't need to do too much here either as most seats are safe for them, although you may have a few more ministers who might voice their electorates needs from a more powerful position but I doubt it.

 

[Scotland]

I think we're making the same point from different angles. Small population, lack of swing seats = WGAF about WA.

If only there was a house of parliament that was designed to look after the interests of the states...
