I'm not surprised that opposition leader Timmy Nichols is languishing in the polls. He's the invisible man of politics. If you took a survey of Q'landers and asked who the opposition leader was, most wouldn't have a clue. And the job can't be that hard. GT Reading Street Talk (GCB, May 5). Do you think Mayor Tom Tate listens to what the communities want? The answers given show clearly how torn the city is. My answer is NO! Tom Tate is a master of saying what people want governments to do. Do something about our gridlocked road system before the Commonwealth Games. You built larger highrises on failing, crumbling infrastructure built in the 80s. You’re not at all proactive, you’re reactive. That's not good enough. BigDog Carrara, only decent station is 99.4 Rebel fm How desperate are our shopping channels (7, 9 and 10) - makes me laugh that everything is “Breaking News”. Unlike schapelle corby, by the evidence presented so far, it seems obvious cassie is guilty. Bring that stupid Cassie back from the hellhole but please don’t say she knew nothing. When back after doing her time she can then think about repaying the private landlord of a unit she left in a disgraceful state that with her unpaid rent and damage to the property cost a hardworking man thousands. Granny annie A hapless kiwi side is never going to stop a rampant Kangaroo team. Let it be a warning to all nations before the World Cup. Noel Well, well. The kiwis have 3 months before they can jump on their (only) bandwagon in Sydney with the Bledisloe. But remember, we have made 4 out of 8 of rugby’s World Cup showpiece finals too. Eddie Sarroff, u had your chance, now please let Tate the visionary get on with reducing obscene high youth unemployment and continuing to build our city into a world-class tourist destination, as it rightfully deserves. Mal, every weekend I hear the high-powered motorbikes take off at the Nerang Murwillumbah-Nerang Beaudesert intersection. Every weekend I hear ambulances heading in the same direction. Every single weekend. Silly sth korea, usa and japan have stood idly by while the psychotic child hitler in nth korea fine-tunes his nuclear warheads and long-range nuclear armed submarines. Rhonda, my wife and I raised an ADHD child, something you clearly did not do. We tried spanking, time out, groundings, removal of privilege, the belt, the jug cord, positive reinforcement, diet and a thousand other ideas including zero tolerance. Not one of these made a difference. So what now? NRL congratulations, you now have become the worlds most reported professional sporting organisation regarding illegal substance usage amongst players and administration. No wonder you have fans turning to other codes. Dan Talk about double standards. Natasha Exelby is dismissed for a minor error and Yasmin Abdel-Magried disrespects Anzac Day and no reprimand. Both on ABC. I hope Malcolm Turnbull keeps Trump waiting three hours if Trump visits Australia. How rude, can you imagine Trump even waiting to see anyone? Pep
