“Just because the Premier has announced his support for the project, does not mean we are going to give in to this environmentally damaging, waste of tax-payers’ money. Our campaign is only starting,” stated Jeff Angel, Director of the Centre.

The half minute video, already viewed over 100 times, tells who opposes the race, including three local councils and the Olympic Park Authority Board, as well as pointing out the huge costs to tax payers, the state government and the Olympic Park environment.

“We are hoping that by taking this campaign to the net, and the widely popular YouTube site, we will be able to reach out to a new and wider demographic of people who can support the campaign and make their objections known to the Premier,” said Mr. Angel.

“Our new Premier is painting himself as being ‘green’ but this the race location is a direct contradiction to that image. Not only is it an environmental disaster, he is also directly ignoring the appeals of the local community in the kind of issues that really matter to them.”
