Tom Tate wants to know where extra $30 thousand is coming from for the Gold Coast Film Festival to approve it. But is happy to get fully paid for overseas trip to China as Mayor. But doesn’t want to know who’s paying for it.

7 days a week, MI parking lot. Bring on the Games and put out the parking meters, Gold Coast Council! – Charlie

I told my wife I going to China. She asked why. I said I don’t know. She said well is it for work and who’s paying for it? I said I really don’t know. But I said the good thing is apparently they may send me the invoice for the trip. She said did you check if they will? I said no I didn’t ask. She said, who do you think you are, Tom Tate?

Best Bulletin front page I have seen in Bulletin in quite a few years. Meter Men rule.

Great result in the SSM survey. Common sense has prevailed and all Australians will have equal rights before the law. Hopefully that law will be passed by Parliament without further delays from opponents of full equality. – ColH

Gay marriage Yes vote wins, now demands will start for child adoption etc, political correctness will be applied to wreak havoc. – KenW

Australia voted Yes but it means diddly squat if not passed in Parliament. The biggots might still get their way. Remember we completed a survey, nothing more. To pass this bill I say hound any and all politicians. – The Bamboozleist

To get same-sex marriage bill made law it goes to GG then GG asks the Queen. Are we still English subjects? – Waz 1

If the government now recognises gay and lesbian marriage, they will have to recognise gay and lesbian de factos. Economically the broader LGBT community is now financially disadvantaged particularly if going for Centrelink. Irony is they may have to say they’re not gay to make it easier. – Todd

What happens to the annual Mardi Gras? Do we have the choice to have a Hetro Gras? Either way it’s good Aust finally grew up. – Reg

Don’t agree with the outcome it wasn’t a fair vote only 12 million voted with 16 million votes sent out which is only 75% voted should have made it a compulsory vote then we woud have right outcome.

How come SkyBus coming to the Coast when there are already services available?

Com Games village will be

completed at the expense of subbys and taxpayers building company will declare bankrupt be back a month later rebranded as YouGotCon – The Guru

The judge lets the crim negotiate his court date around his birthday haha, will he negotiate his sentence? Who’s in charge at that court house?

GCCC introduces hi-tech rubbish bins into Surfers Paradise. Why do we need hi-tech to check to see if a rubbish bin is full? Does that mean there’s someone sitting in an office 24/7 waiting for a monitor to go off, who then rings the supervisor ganger then the truck driver to forgo the run he’s on to go empty a bin?

Now NZ is in Labour control watch their deficit grow and grow like Queensland has god help them. – True Kiwi

Parliamentarians with dual citizenships has possibly been going on for decades so just what harm has it done in the past? – Barney

Who is the State Member for Southport? I have never seen or heard of him or her in three years. – Jack

One wonders if you cannot navigate a roundabout like Gooding Drive without the need for counter productive traffic lights, then what are you doing with a licence in the first place? – Barry C

I see Olsen Avenue has turned into a car park now stage 2 of the tram to nowhere is up and running.

Wrong, wrong, wrong now the Barbie doll is wearing a burka! What has the world come to? OMG. Australia is becoming Muslim orientated soon they will be telling all Aussies what to do. Just saying. – BOK

No Stropp, Gillard is not duel citizen.It all started when they hoped to get her when she was pm but has blown back in their faces. –JK

Congratulations on voting Yes! The only downside for me is I have to watch my gay mate Johnny get married twice a year for the rest of our lives. I’ve already heard that song Young Hearts, Run Free way too many times. – Marvin

My parents were born in Poland I was born in Australia do I have dual citizenship? I’m confused. – Stan

Why are people so defensive when it is pointed out to them they are parking in a disabled parking spot they are not entitled to. Is it because they know they are in the wrong? – Sym

Hmm what to do, what to do? Vote for a weak government or a corrupt government … what a choice!”
