Go to Victoria markets, you will find better meat for half of the price you find it here. As for the freight issue, that is not an open and shut case. Many items now come here drop shipped from the point of manufacturer, which means that on many occasions they pay less for shipping than those on the East. Retail in Perth is the biggest rip off in the Southern Hemisphere, it is also the worst as far as selection and is a major reason for us not attracting tourists.
Been to Victoria markets price of meat the same as WA
Purchased retail items in Melbourne the same as WA
Tourists luv it over here,just ask them you might be surprised with what you get told,but you probably wouldn't listen anyway,some how I don't think you'll ever be happy. |

One question I always have about WA, is that why is every step forward objected to by the same vocal minority groups.
It does not matter if it is a new railway line, a resort at exmouth, a new swan river foreshore development.
it is always the same vegan greenies who loudly object, marching the streets in their dirty old clothes covering their dirty unwashed bodies, yet the WA LaboUr goverment listens to these low life nobodys.
Ausgal we know you are a Liberal freak tell me what the Liberals have ever done for WA,no more than any other political party has. |

Interesting, your comment about Vic markets is just not accurate, I was there three weeks ago and I can assure you that there was a huge difference in the price of meat.
As for tourists, you are miles off base, the fact is Perth has a hard time drawing overseas tourists. |

The thugs who traveled down from Perth to bash a guy (which resulted in his death)in Mandurah last week for fun were white so please don't make this a race issue.
If you are going to make it a race issue I will tell you that when I was last in Melbourne I could not help noticing that there seemed to be more Asians than white people. It doesn't bother me as I'm not racist. It was just an observation. |

| Your observation has no relevance. The poster said that the reason for high incidents of violence was because of Aborigines. If you do not agree with him, stick to his statement, regarding crime and Aborigines and respond to it. |

'Melbourne has the lowest crime rate out of all the major Australian cities because it has a small aboriginal population.'
Just lucky for Melbourne eh!
I think I will keep our aboriginals and they can have their gangsters shooting each other!!! |

To each his own I guess. For my part, I would rather gangsters shooting each other, at least the general populace are safe. |

Perth will not be Dullsville in a few years if the modern forward thinking people get their way. We just have to beat the "do not change anything brigade because we like it how it was in Rottnest in 1928"
Why do so many WA people live in the past when they should be looking forward to the future. |

| I have to agree with mcc_06 in that the people of Perth are so rude. I live in Perth and am forever amazed about how rude everyone is. I have been pretty much all around the world and I can tell you that even the French have more manners than we do! And nothing against the French. I just think that we are a very young and immature city and have lots of growing up to do. Other than that, Perth is beautiful and ias so far a lovely place to bring up a family. Although things are changing with all the home invasions, etc. |

murder capital? and most crime in australia?? where you getting these facts lol. the whole of australia knows that south west sydney tops that. any of u perth guys been to punchbowl or bankstown late at night? or mt druitt.
back to the question. perth is a capital city. so like all cities there is something to do. just maybe perth doesnt have the entertainment districts that are easy to find like in melbourne sydney or on surfers. |

Perth is no different to any other city.
The posters here are dull though, can't you find something constructive to say? Have you nothing better to do that whinge? Get a life.
WA/Perth is not dull but the WA message board is.
Have fun you miserable sods! |
