Being new to PD I do get confused as to what's right & what's misinformation. Are you talking about the 7 story hotel near Flagstaff Hill, the Daintree Ferry, or what am I to be aware of? I try to ignore most of it. PS: Loving living in PD. In 70 years, never been happier.

And I would have to say that telling people they might themselves in hot water sounds like a threat. Exactly what are you threatening?

It has become quite hard not to respond to the constant slandering, and hateful behavior, that is obviously directed towards Major Micheal Kerr. Especially when 'our' and 'everyones' Council is made up of several officials and dozens of hard working people that all make up the Douglas Shire Council. No matter what peoples personal beliefs are against infrustrature, it is blantanly obvious how sorely missed progress has been in the recently years, and should not only be indisputably imperative to the economic survival of our main industries, it has sadly left us extremely behind sistering towns. I am presuming the point MK is referring too, is the Federal Government has changed laws and will be implementing soon-negatively personal and indirect comments on all social media platforms, including websites, will fall under slander and be apprehendable. Obviously this current council needs reasonable time to address all inherited issues, and sincerely l hope personal land in their kpi's. Be positive MK, stay strong. The amount of negativity and slandering across platforms is Not the Douglas Shire, it is Against the Douglas Shire and quite frankly childish, petty, and embrassing to the majority.

When an elected official, in this case Michael Kerr - Mayor of Douglas Shire, engages so defensively against genuine concerns by constituents with such disdain, it suggests that this elected official is not at all up to the job. We have not ever experienced such terrible leadership.
'My way or the highway' attitude will be your downfall Michael.
It is you who has created this social media shit storm, and you alone. Fix it.

Hello Mayor Kerr, would you mind clarifying if your comments relate to the ferry issue (will we even have one?) or the development on Flagstaff Hill? Some clarity would be much appreciated!!

Why did the council lie aboout the trees...please don't deny it; one was verified as only 15% diseased not 80% as claimed. Why did you need police to stop people uncovering more if it wasn't a lie? Singapore is one of the most dense urban centres per capita per sq. kilometre. Have you seen the big,beautiful trees thst run straight down the main road? Ignorant Australians would have chopped them down. Invest in nature stop abusing it in the guise of 'progress.'

What a shame people cannot move on and be supportive of what we have . Our town has never been better. Getting facts right is very important especially if you don’t want to look like an idiot.

Every step of council's dealings is on its website. Do the research first.

Tip for you Mayor Kerr. Stay away from commenting on Face Book. Look what Twitter did to Ex President Trump EH

Well said

Ah, so this is the shameful man, the environmental vandal that ordered the destruction of historic allegedly sick trees and posted police to stop people gaining evidence to prove it was a lie on pain of arrest. Trump? Putin? Nah some two bit lord mayor with fat cats to please. Hope the parking spot was worth it.
