DEAR News Of The Area, IMAGINE this! Instead of spending $93 billion on a high-speed railway between Sydney and Newcastle (which will inevitably double or triple or quadruple in cost before completion), imagine that this money is invested in the North Coast railway! The line would be duplicated so trains could run in both directions […]
DEAR News Of The Area, WHAT is the value of Australian citizenship? After the disgraceful performance of Labor, the COALition and One Notion this week I am seriously starting to wonder.

Such wanton and premeditated taking of life can never be condoned in Australia under any circumstances. Our sincerest and most heartfelt […]
DEAR News Of The Area, AS a proud Australian I am appalled and embarrassed at the conduct of our so-called leaders. After any horrific event in our country, the latest being the Bondi massacre, our politicians are only too quick to get on the air and practice political score carding by blaming their opponents.
