Life of Rich worth more - radioactive wastes move from Hunters Hill to Penrith

This is appalling. Thanks to the revelation by investigative journalists, we know now that our political leaders are secretly prepared to sacrifice the health and lives of the poorer people. The Keneally government of NSW simply cannot afford to suffer a backlash from the affluent Hunters Hill but Penrith folks are dispensable.

The ramifications and fallout can affect everyone living in the city if sufficient care and proper safety precautions are not taken during transportation and disposal. Accidents can happen and they often do with an administration that has bungled on many fronts from providing infrastructure to essential healthcare services.

Aren't we furious and fearful for our well being which the government so nonchalantly and vicariously neglects?
