Cr Roy Zammataro Forced To Apologise For His Conduct At The DSC Meeting Today After A Fierce Debate Over A Motion He Put Up, The Mayor & Other Councillors Describing It As A Political Stunt

Cr Roy Zammataro was forced to apologise over his behaviour at todays meeting of the Douglas Shire Council. It was anything but an ordinary meeting as the Mayor and other Councillors accused Cr Zammataro of presenting a floored motion that had no chance of getting up. Cr Zammataro and Cr Noli even tried to change the wording mid stream in an effort to get it across the line but it was defeated. Paul Makin caught up with the Mayor Michael Kerr, the Deputy Mayor Lisa Scomazzon and Cr Peter McKeown to discuss the almost farcical idea. Also on the agenda a suggested tweaking of the town plan, **Buskers note** please stay in Cairns, what TPDD is getting in funding PLUS more. www.douglas.qld.gov.au

His big return to the stage as Hank Williams was not what we expected, however Craig McLachlan fit's this character like a glove when it comes to his musical background. Hank Williams was a country superstar when he died on Jan 1st 1953. His death shocked the US and fans around the world. A talent lost. How fitting is it to see one of Australia's top entertainers fill his shoes on stage for ''Nobody Lonesome For Me'. FAB FM's Paul Makin also reminds listeners he discovered Craig back in 1980. Good luck Craig!  We can't wait for you to return to what you love so much.  https://craigmclachlan.com.au/theatre/
