Toondah Harbour, the gateway to Straddie, was decisive in the recent Mayoral elections in the Redlands on Moreton Bay. Although more than 50% voted against her, the incumbent, Karen Williams, won. One of the candidates ran a spoiling dirty campaign against Claire Richardson, an opponent to the Toondah Harbour development. It seems the crony capitalists have done it again. – Ed.
