Peter ‘Chopper’ Malinauskas to plonk MotoGP in Adelaide’s cherished Park Lands

a month ago by arbilp3 to c/adelaide

No matter how old you are, no matter how special you are, if you’re an Adelaide Park Lands’ tree, don’t have your roots buried between Premier Peter Malinauskas and a vanity project. Rex Patrick reports.

We get it. The MotoGP motorbike racing is entertaining and will be popular with South Australians. But is it OK to cut down 400 trees and put an imposing 16-acre racecourse in the middle of what was once a world unique park land?

Would such a proposition in New York City Central Park be entertained? Only if Peter Malinauskas were the NYC’s Mayor.

Our politicians seem to be getting more bought out, more clueless and cynical. This is appalling.

Old Money crying about noise from working class revellers is the real story.
