City of Nedlands Mayor launches extraordinary broadside after four councillors resign- ABC

Edit: (some background on the Childrens Hospice)

WA government takes control of land next to children's hospice to allow development of 'a beautiful oasis' (abc)

In short: The City of Nedlands opposed plans to build a parkland on an A-class reserve near the new $34 million children's hospice in Swanbourne, which is due to open later this year.

The Lands Minister John Carey has moved to take Allen Park out of the hands of the council, saying it has not maintained the space in "any meaningful way".

What's next?
The move to excise control of the land will be put to state parliament in the middle of this month.

That interview was so wild!

I got in the car this morning and they were halfway through replaying it on abc Perth breakfast. I came in right at the point she starts demanding "who doesn't love dying children!?" I did a double, then triple take at, like wtf, i think i understand what she was trying to say, but fuck, that was a trainwreck!

I looked up more information about the childrens hospice, (link is in the edit to the post). It looks like a genuinely good project, that doesn't deserve to be mired in a controversy like this.
