Having lunch with a girlfriend on Saturday, we both received that SMS message re a Yes vote. Disastrous PR exercise – who paid for those many thousands of messages? Don’t like that sort of persuasion. No vote for me.

With the controvers­ial SSM debate, why did the govt not wait till next federal election and then hold a referendum at same time? The result would have been binding, and saved a lot of money. – Marty

I voted yes. Why? I wonder if all those who would be entitled to get married and are on a single pension at present realise they would revert to the mar- ried pension, therefore saving us money. – Shakey Lake

Why didn’t you have a dedicated bank account for your election campaign Tom Tate? – Hallo

How does it feel, Tom have you ever heard of the rules for elections in local government? Apparently not. When are you resigning? – California Jack

Administra­tor a one-word cure for GCCC Pitbull.

Gridlock City a result of poor planning with no essential upgrades to infrastruc­ture to compensate for population growth. Over it. Reward for effort Anne Cornish and her faithful supporters on Saturday when the coach and players of PBC AFL Club won their grand final against Labrador. Well done. – Noela (Ma)

When will Coles and Woolies stop being so irresponsi­ble by putting environmen­tally disastrous, and killer artery clogger palm oil, in many of their breads and cakes etc.

Are motor cyclists allowed to ride in green cycle lanes to get to the front of the queue at traffic lights?

How fantastic, CommBank is going to can the ATM fee and there is no way they would be going to try and sneak it back in somewhere else. No not a chance that will happen. – Woodleigh We would have less fires in the middle of the road if idiots would stop throwing cigarettes out their window.

Apparently the Turf Club is going to build a tunnel under the race track so they can park cars in the centre. Does that mean they won’t fill in Black Swan Lake?

No chance as an independen­t. Rick Flori would go better standing with One Nation.

If you average people demanded and went on strike for a pay rise to over a million per year then failed to do your job time and time again u would get sack. But not me as I’m an Australian cricket player.

A weekend of AFL block heads with destructio­n of local cricket pitch and socalled legend Barry Hall up to his old tricks again. – Doug

Malcolm you’ve left saving our gas too late. What are you doing to us? What an absolute mess you have us in. – Blissy B

Seems to me politician­s have no control over ridiculous petrol, electricit­y and gas prices. Why did the government sell off our power stations? Why do we pay these guys top dollar. They are useless.

Just because Turnbull and his mates needs fracking doesn’t mean the rest of the country’s farmland needs to be fracked. – Sharon

Best of luck, Rick Flori. I hope you do well. You were obviously the best of the QPS and I’m sure you’ll be a breath of fresh air on political scene. – Dave
