In this podcast they ask the question, … “Should local councils in Australia focus on solving complex geopolitical issues like the conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine or should they focus on fixing pot holes on the local roads and taking out the rubbish on time? Should they also be occupied with social justice issues like the Voice or climate change or raising the LGTBIQ+ flag?”
This podcast between the host of Kofy Time and Dean Hurlston from Council Watch in Victoria should spark some interest. They are talking about issues facing local councils in Victoria so obviously not everything applies to us in Onkaparinga especially the conflicts with police and the Muslim community so please fast forward to 3minutes 15 seconds.
