  1. Who is on the Development Consent Authority (DCA)? Previously Andrew Kirkman, Alastair Shields & DWC were involved. The corruption continues because the cabal stack committees with predators, it is not an ALP or CLP situation it is a fight between good people being saved from the greedy, self-interested cult members, maybe includes Freemasons. Excellent investigative reporting David.

    • Freemasons? The most boring, stoic bunch of rotund morons anyone has ever met!

  2. Is there any way out . . . to SAVE THE NORTHERN TERRITORY? The one that we all came to . . . and fell in love with?

  3. I ask all readers to consider, in 132 calendar days, which will be 23/8/2025, to vote out every single member of the City of Darwin. And vote anyone with a platform of purging the executives from City of Darwin. A clean slate is needed.

  4. So the Konman is at it again..no surprise.

  5. How can they break all the rules and yet no office will hold them accountable?

    The levels of corruption in this town are infuriating.

  6. Enough.
    Sack the council and place it in administration, pending scheduled elections. This is what happens elsewhere in Australia when the council tail wags the city dog. If there is one lesson, we should have learned from history it is that there is no future under corruption. Only decay and crime.
    Would someone who knows the legal procedure please assist us to end this farce now before we are all so burdened with debt the town implodes.

    • Well first things first, will Minister for Housing, Local Government and Community Development, The Honorable Steven Edgington even consider it? Or is he too in waiting limbo until Chief Minister gets back from holidays?

      The CLP have deliberately placed inexperienced people, buffoons and non qualified people in portfolios that they have no experience in.

      The Honorable Jo-Anne Hersey Minister for Department of Education is a friggin Hair Dresser.

      The Honorable Marie-Clare Boothby Minister for Attorney-Generals is a receptionist from a Personal Finance advisory (Not Corporate Finance, Personal Finance).

      The Honorable William (Bill) Yan as Treasurer, the most important Minister of them all….. no relevant quals, no economic background, will he understand the Economic concepts, terminology and methodology by Aug 2028..

      The Honorable Joshua Burgoyne as Minister for Lands, Planning and Environment and Minister for Corporate and Digital Development, qualified Sparky!

      The Honorable Robyn Cahill, Minister for Trade, Business and Asian Relations, ran medical clinics!

      The Honorable Jinson Charls Minister for People, Sport and Culture, has Health qualifications and some health experience.

      The Honorable Steven Edgington, Minister for Health….Qualified Lawyer, well done CLP.

      The Honorable Gerard Maley Deputy Chief Minister ….Qualified Lawyer!

      One of them 2 Health background MLA’s could not go to Health?
      One of them 3 Legal background MLA’s could not go to Attorney General’s??
      The 1 MLA with Economics qualifications could not go to Treasury or Dept Business?

      Nobody can be in a position to challenge the Chief while they struggle with their portfolios responsibilities.
