Highway of Delays, no! Sorry but these roadworks have been put on the backburner once again to the detriment of the North. There is more to be done in the SE first, so, sorry North. Incidental­ly there are more votes in the SE corner and, apparently, we don’t count. Our loss, her gain.

M J REYNOLDS, MT LOUISA.

The only thing worse than the youths that attacked the 81-yearold in her home are the three grubs that call themselves our state reps. FRED, PIMLICO.

Why all the hooha about Kalyn Ponga and Dane Gagai? We all know the thuggery level will be sky-high and who among us would want to be responsibl­e for putting Kalyn Ponga at such risk, and as for Dane Gagai, why can’t the young ones get a chance? R.G, 4812.

Despite having all his needles my husband has the flu. It’s impossible to get into a doctor. I think he should be able to go to his chemist and get antibiotic­s. Anyone agree with me? VAL V, NORTH WARD.

As Australian­s, we should acknowledg­e and celebrate our diverse heritages, but we must not allow that diversity to divide us and dictate our future. We do not choose into what race we are born, but we are able to choose whether we allow race to define us. In the upcoming Referendum, one word will divide us. That word is yes. We are already considered equals under the Constituti­on. We are all Australian­s.

TRUEBLUE, TOWNSVILLE.

Bruce 2.0 quietly pushed back, no doubt to help fund Queen Anna’s Olympics just like her speed bump on BFD instead of Stage 2.0. Bruce 1.0 should always be priority but the LNP Frecklingt­on opposition made it their key platform so it had to be buried immediatel­y. W WENCK, CURRAJONG.

Maybe non chimney u should try selfservic­e. I wait in line and as there’s usually only one operator. They do a great job serving all customers, maybe take a deep breath if that’s your whine of the day. PAUL, 4812.

Who was the bright spark, who

designed the 2 lanes into 4 lane at Castletown? Off-peak hours are bad enough, but peak hour is horrendous. It’s a wonder there aren’t more accidents or road rage. SUE, WEST END.

The Indian Prime Minister packs out a massive stadium on his visit Down Under! Meanwhile, Albo packs out a phone box with his supporters!

THE LONE RANGER, IDALIA.

Townsville. The skin cancer capital of the world. And none of our council-owned pools are covered so you can swim in the middle of the day without being fried. Why? JIM, 4817.

Not sure why anyone who’s not a Katter party member would attend a

Katter party rally?

STEVE, GURAMBILBA­RRA.

RYAN CATHOLIC COLLEGE community… give yourselves a huge pat on the back. Saw opening night of The Wizard of Oz… incredible! Prep to year twelves on stage, costuming amazing and the music phenomenal. Well done you! KERRY, WEST END.

Thank you, Bulletin for including informatio­n where the ‘Top Shots’ of Townsville are taken. It makes them much more interestin­g.
