Melbourne is turning into a war zone detention camp. Arriving in Melbourne over the Westgate Bridge used to be an absolute delight, with fabulous views right down our lovely bay past the cruise ships and Melbourne’s heritage piers whilst on the other side Melbourne the city ethereally hovered in the short distance. A real wow!
Now gross political stupidity has surfaced by and through the erection of badly made and maintained razor wire fencing stretching the full length of the bridge turning this lovely tourist introduction to Melbourne into one of danger and hate.
No one in their right mind could believe the erection of a fence will stop people committing suicide or worse infanticide because it’s a simple fact that people will always find a way if they are so driven.
It does however show the length politicians will go to prove they actually do something albeit in this case with absolute disregard for the realities of human behavior, consequences for tourism and indeed every person commuting over the Westgate.
Turning beauty into crap for political purposes is unforgivable when there are many many options.
When will this Government actually think through issues instead of knee jerking and wasting substantial amounts of OUR money whilst destroying our beautiful city.
