As usual SDC is well behind, it must be a slow news week, second time we have had this in a couple of weeks.

The council would not be able to sell up every house for non payment of rates, it's time the people (thousands of us) stood up to about 10/12 councillors. No one and I mean no one would take my home.

122 million for a pool, I bet they still want to charge those silly enough to want a swim when they go through the gate, I think it's time these poor ratepayers took a no confidence vote on the council, if everyone withheld their rates it might just bring things to a head. They can't evict every...

Are you sure it was the banks ?

All you read is complaints about Bendigo bank and how badly they treat their customers, it's a wonder they have any left.

Why do we have to read to the key takeaways before we find out which council, very annoying and poor reporting, how about you tell us upfront who you are referring to and we can either waste time reading to the end of not.

A ridiculous comment about income, do people on benefits have a lesser responsibility than those with proper jobs, we are and should be all equal. Do the crime pay the fine.

Next time instead of stopping to open his gate he should just drive through it and send council a bill for repairs. You go on to say the police will be representing council in court, are they really as stupid as the council.

Pretty sure the grass outside the footpath doesn't belong to the householder anyway.

It's disappointing to see carer allowance increase $5.80 when others get $17-$25. Yes I know it's a percentage but people who care for others work a lot harder than youth unemployed or students waiting to go to university. About time the amount paid for this work was given a good hard look at.

Being only 14 and coming before one of our limp wristed magistrates he would already be back on the street by the time we read this ready to do it all again, that's if he hasn't already. Enough is enough time for magistrates to take off their rose coloured glasses and apply the law as citizens...

Mrs Imran said, the government needs to give us more support. Why should the government prop up any business ( using taxpayer money) if they can't make a profit on their own.

So sick of these so called popular restaurants closing down with devastating results, if they are so popular they would not be closing down.

Let's hope Andrew was smart enough to move from Latitude after the way they acted towards him.

I feel really sorry for you, a 20 minute consultation with our doctor is $188.50 so yes I guess all doctors are doing it tuff. If you can't do a lot of work because of illness perhaps you should consult a doctor.

SDC are still reporting on week old news and how do they know the croc was there for 2 weeks, if so don't you think they would have done something about it.

Yes the carers allowance is just that an allowance it rises to a remarkable $159.30 per fortnight.

Another one who obviously doesn't get the aged pension or they would know the pensions rise TWICE a year or are they just hear for a whinge. Carers allowance is vastly different than a carers pension, it is 2 fifths of sweet f.a.

Referring to the poster, once you have seen these jokes you don't need to see them every week, this one did the rounds about a week ago and several times before that.

Nothing like using someone else's joke, if you can't come up with your own original don't bother to post anything.
