An increase by 90%?bshoc said:Just yesterday new figures were realeased showing a 90% increase in crime in Western Sydeny over the past year and a 50% increase in the inner city.
And 50% in the city?
An increase by 90% increase is impossible and what ever source you got that from is CLEARLY mistaken (more like, you (as you are on most things) are clearly mistaken).
This is your perception of it.bshoc said:The whole system is rotten and inept,
The police system and the political system are two different systems. What exactly is it that the police are coming out of?bshoc said:and no amount of new recruits are going to make a difference seeing as how they are coming out of that rotten system.
You are concerned about the way they deal with middle eastern crime. I'm sorry but you've been stung by ACA & TT again i'm afraid. Go out and get some middle eastern friends and you will realise how stupid have been.
oh ok if you say so.bshoc said:Only by renewing the people at the top, getting rid of middle management and streamlining the police structure, as Debnam has proposed, will this ever change.
And where do they get the FUNDING for that, you asshole parasite?cock-odour-mung-key said:hmm yeah. lets see. firstly. Transport ,roads etc is STATE control not federal. so
You can compile lists of criticisms and failures about anything. This is no means a put down for the state government because by publishing this list you are suggesting that the liberals would not have compiled such a list of failures if they would have been in power, which implies that they are armed with some super-natural ability to *get things done correctly*, which, as we can see from the liberals at a federal level, is clearly not the case.frog5689021054328175839 said:Lets see…
- The devil that is Urban Consolidation and the centralisation of planning powers (to Lord Sartor)
- Failure to address Sydney’s road transport issues - Spit/ Military Road, Parramatta Road, Victoria Road, the M4, the M5 - Sydney’s most popular carparks. Instead we have a user pays road system, despite a 1995 pledge to make Sydney toll free..
- Failure to adequately invest in public transport - train fares increased by 31%, 1500+ fewer bus services, 400+ fewer train services
- Failure to adequately invest in infrastructure in the face of steady population growth
- Failure to address Sydney’s water supply issues
- Failure to commit to land release to reduce the housing affordability issues plaguing Sydney
- Failure to invest and improve health services, instead doctoring and altering measurement standards, centralising decision making (in the face of a commitment to halve waiting lists)
- Taxes and burdens on both the housing sector and business driving investors and business people interstate, failing to capitalise on the longest period of sustained growth in Australian history, instead the state faces a black hole..
- A failure to maintain ‘record police numbers’ through awful retention rates
The list could go on and on if we cite more specific examples of their complete incompetence... does the cross city tunnel come to mind?
