The bus Shelters were just that! - SHELTERS!!

'Plastic Kerry', 'Sellout Shaw' and the other Right-Wingers were placing Profits before People again!!

I've never been wetter than when I had the misfortune to cower in one of the 'new' edifaces recently.

They offer virtually no shelter in a Southerly. Did Plastic Kerry stand or sit in one? Has she EVER??!!

Has she HELL! She wouldn't know what the inside of a bus looks like.

Thanks Bryan,

So THAT'S why the old shelters (which did just that...SHELTERED) were removed in favour of the awful 'glass bowls' now in evidence.

The almighty Dollar has reigned supreme again!

One is left to wonder if the Mayor does ANYTHING without money??!!

Reminiscent of another profession, mayhap?
