"Death of Democracy"

Great slogan, let's hope the organisers of the protest can use it to make some progress! The Sydney North Shore protesters claim the NSW government planners are ignoring residents, taking money from developers, and turning pleasant communities into high-rise concrete jungles. Some 1500 people joined the protest and passed a resolution calling for local planning rights to be restored. NSW Planning Minister Kristina Keneally was invited to speak at the protest but didn't show.
