WHEN anyone disagrees with WAG, there's a pile on in the Beacon letters until they give up and shut up.

I’m thankful that Dave Stewart has not been bullied into silence as well. There’s more than a few of us who are also sick of WAG's constant grumbling, negativity and disinformation, and who are pleased to see his comments published in the Beacon.

It’s Grey Power in drag. They’ve enjoyed all the benefits of this wonderful district over the decades but now, in their twilight years, they don’t want anything spent on the next generation.

Well, they don’t speak for all of us oldies. Some of us do want to see the council investing in the future. We want to see things that support the next generations, like great sports facilities to keep them busy, economic growth to keep them employed and community initiatives that makes it a more interesting place to live.

The district wouldn't look very interesting if we followed WAG's advice. We might as well hang a sign that says “Last one to leave, please turn out the light”
