themercury.com.au/news/tasmania/… There is a lot that needs to be considered with the argument of free public transport. Parking reforms would have better outcomes, and service improvements. @rg_inglis theconversation.com/would-you-ditc… theconversation.com/low-cost-high-…
I think the most frustrating part of this is that even a journalist can't get information on public transport patronage in Hobart.

After seeing @chrisroww’s feed tonight, I think the prescription for the weekend should be for every Tasmanian with an opinion of the stadium to get off Twitter, enjoy the weekend, chill out and stop talking about it for 72 hours.

@rg_inglis @tassiepatrat @themercurycomau Rob, you were a great impartial reporter on the prison issue in Westbury…..we needed an independent journo who held the Government to account and that was you.
@rg_inglis @tassiepatrat @themercurycomau Hopefully a more representative pic of the demographic of those attending too. There are lots around based on what’s been posted on Twitter. 😊
