Brisbane City Council Budget Meeting - 22 June 2023

Home of the bin chicken. Visit our friends:
Cr Johnston on her usual soapbox about stormwater drainage. She points out that just last year Cr Aderman asked for money for a memorial and he got it this year. But residents in her area have been waiting over a decade for stormwater upgrades, and still no funding.
Her amendment is voted down by the LNP and abstained from by Labor and Cr Massey.
How come this got voted down? I would have thought stormwater upgrades were fairly important?
Cr Johnston is the independent Councillor for Tennyson Ward. She used to be a member of the LNP, until she left the party rather acrimoniously about a decade ago. She's had a huge chip on her shoulder against the LNP ever since, and the feeling is mutual.
They'll vote down basically anything she brings, regardless of its merit.
wow damn!
