adelaide now comments on this story really piss me off

just out of curiosity, why is the NT government involved in the 15000 page report. is it because BHP wants to use the SA-NT railway, eventhough they are using an SA port to ship the ore.

I don't know why people on adelaide now constantly bag this labour government. i have lived in adelaide all my life and i think this state has dramatically improved in the last 8 years compared to when i was a kid. i think this governemnt has been very good for this state investing alot of money in ...

i hate looking at that gap between westpack house and the stamford. Need spire, heart of glass or something tall in their....
