A stoush has erupted over a new Brisbane City Council park on land bought back after repeated flooding events.

    Wow, yeah. What is parking in a city lot if not “keeping privately owned items on public land”?

      They don’t care if they are contradicting themselves as the same people paying them to tell such bullshit will also pay the media to push narratives 24/7 creating the sufficient amounts of cognitive dissonance.
