The vote is in...
We received word during the annual speedway dinner; 60% NO, 40% YES.This is went through my head after the announcement.
1. You’re fucking kidding right?
2. This IS a backward, incestuous yokel town. The earth is ROUND people.
3. So… what’s the next option?
I don’t think residents realise the ramifications of yesterday’s vote.
On a local level, the referendum has caused a massive split between local council; six support recycling, three (known around home as ‘the Three Stooges’) are against it.
On a national level, it has raised the urgency of the water situation; but its given a lot more weight to governments that don’t support recycling.
I just have no idea what the next step will be. Duke it out over dams? Over sinking bores? Desalination of ocean water? Fog harvesting? Whatever the next option, its just going to start more debate taking more time that Toowoomba doesn’t have.
