Former Deputy Mayor Ramia on the loose ...
Poor old Smoking Joe Ramia.
Either he thinks he still has the Water Portfolio (which was stripped from him following his poor showing at the 2008 Toowoomba Regional Council election) or he thinks that finding a water solution for Toowoomba and the surrounding region is something that falls within the Events portfolio.
How else can one explain his mutterings on radio this week when he told anyone who would listen that coal seam gas water can't be used for a town's water supply?
Wait.
That sounds somewhat similar to a certain senior Council staffer's position on coal seam gas water.
Who's been in Joe's ear telling him to get out and mislead the community?
And why is the Toowoomba Regional Council allowing Cr Ramia to do this?
Isn't it time they put him on a short leash ...

Please tell Belinda Saunders that we don't want to hear any more of Joe Ramia's unintelligible comments on water. Cr Antonio is the person elected to the Water portfolio. It is his job to speak on the water situation. The new Councillors have a lot of catching up to do as it is a very complex matter and they are working hard to sort out the fact from fiction.Just let Cr Antonio get on with his job and don't give Cr. Ramia air space to further undermine the eforts of the new Council. Why was the old Council thrown out of office? Because Toowoomba people do not want to drink recycled sewerage water! full stop. Let this Council fully explore the gas water option without any further interference from the failed Yes supporters. Have you got that Belinda? Ditto to the Chronicle.

Yes, enough is a enough! Ramia should shut his mouth on this issue, he knows how Toowoomba people feel and what we don't want - to drink recycled effluent!

Let's make it clear - when Ramia and others tell us that coal seam gas water can't be used for town water they are lying pure and simple. Lying to try and push their own agenda. And we have had enough of councillors lying to us over the past few years. Why should we be paying Ramia's salary for him to go on radio and lie?
