    The Melba Highway between Coldstream and Yea is an absolute disgrace. It gets pounded by semis and larger using it as a route up to the Hume. Single lane each way for the majority and you find yourself crossing over when you can even in a semi to avoid the potholes. Not much better on the...

    Was more talking Australia but unions just dilute the workforce and increase prices across the board regardless of it being a union job or not. Taking the current topic of roads. Setting up a council works business to cut out the monopoly might sound like a good option (some councils here...

    If you want to make construction of government jobs cheaper and run more efficiently both on a cost and time metric then cut the CFMEU out of the equation.

    Your question was how much concrete does a solar install need. Chicken and egg. You can't have the rooftop solar without the roof. You cant have the roof without the building, you cant have the building without the concrete foundation. Now multiply that amount per post, per panel for a...

    Considering the original estimate for the entire project was $50bn. We now sit at many multiples of that figure and it's not even for the full project. Yet we got told how we should be 'thankful' that the Andrews government was so responsible with our money to not hold the Commonwealth Games...

    I mean. That question wholly depends on the size of the installation and ground type it is to be mounted on. Or are we also taking into account the footings and slab of the building rooftop solar would be mounted to?

    I use Google maps a couple of times a day and every night to work out where I'm going for work the next day and to make sure I can get the truck and trailer into the street. The GPS in the truck is handy because you can input a height limit which google maps doesn't. But it's horrendous at...

    It's the typical western communist attitude. They yearn for the promises of, and denounce all but communism. But only if they can live in the benefits of capitalism. One day of actual work and he'd fold (he's already told us moving boxes from one spot to another is too strenuous for him)...

    You could argue that those with investment properties (residential) in Victoria were affected more. Couldn't travel to a holiday house during lockdowns, and as previously discussed the rules surrounding evictions and payments of rent etc were changed. :

    Yup. The messaging and logic was all over the place. I spent 10 hours a day in the cab of my excavator, alone so I didn't have to wear a mask. If I stepped outside to fix a broken tooth on the shredder, had to wear a mask. If I walked across the yard in the open air...mask. But then I...

    And the facts? Are those spun too? Or just because they're not your facts? Tracks about right. Just what we need, the government going with a diversity hire on their Tier 1 projects. Or, more correctly just more multinationals for the CFMEU to ram a hand into their pocket.

    My mistake, sorry. It also clearly misrepresents the CFMEU as some sort of thuggish organisation rather than the benevolent, peaceful boys club who definitely don't fill Labors pockets with donations as explained by a life long member here! Terrible.
