Flinders Street

So we've got to slip over to Adelaide and clean up the mess over there and put this prime mover under our trailer and...

Get over to Melbourne for Sunday lunchtime for the rally at Flinders Street Station.

You're going to be pushing it to get there in time, aren't you?

Oh, I'll just put it this way, mate.

But anyway, come meet us this Sunday.

We're meeting at Flinders Station at 12 p.m. It's going to be massive.

I'm speaking.

The guy from the One Nation cartoons is speaking.

Please come because this movement needs you.

Please come because maybe this is something you can do in a positive light for your average people that just want to rally against the mass flood of third world coming into this country.

So like I said, if you're just a fit male, that wants to stand with your average families, little kids, grandmas, aunties and uncles, mums and dads, and you want to make your presence felt so the other side is intimidated with what they can and can't do to us, then come on Sunday, 12pm at Flinders Station.

They're fantastic days and they're great.

I went to what I think is the official kickoff for summer.

And that was the Greek themed summer party at a Float Melbourne, which is that floating pontoon bar on the Yarra River, just down from Flinders Street Station.

It was so much fun.

It was gorgeous Greek food everywhere.

I actually, I ran into Georgia Dimilopoulou, who is the Greek director of the, the director of the Greek National Tourism Organization.

And she was absolutely loving this Australian take on Greece because, you know, we're pretty irreverent about this kind of thing.

So can I just add though, Kirsty, that Afloat's sister bar is Arbury, which is kind of like platform 10 and three quarters at Flinders Street Station.

You know, the one where you're standing on platform 10 and then you see the bar beside it.

I came in by train tonight.

I'm at Flinders Street Station.

I'm sitting looking out the window.

There's about four 13-year-old girls.

With this in mind, I packed my binoculars, ready to take in Stuttgart Ballet's production of Tchaikovsky's The Sleeping Beauty, returning to Australia after more than four decades.

Stepping out of Flinders Street Station on a balmy spring evening, I found Melbourne already staging its own overture.

A hippie-looking fellow was beatboxing John Lennon's jealous guy, while diagonally across the road outside St Paul's Cathedral, a man was telling an angry woman that Jesus had come to warn us we're all tainted by sin.

At the grand old Regent in Collins Street, the audience swept up the staircase beneath chandeliers, dashed for drinks, and then squeezed into the gloriously ornate auditorium, a circus tent fit for royalty.

Coles in Elizabeth Street in Melbourne has said, retail crime, the violence and the abuse of our staff is too much.

In that pocket for other viewers from other states, not from Melbourne, it sits right in front of Flinders Street Station in the main thoroughfare on Elizabeth Street.

It is a pit of crime and homelessness everywhere.

and anti-social activity at night time, Coles will not renew their lease because of the crime and the difficulties it causes their staff and customers and the behaviours in their store.

A sixteen-year-old accused of mowing down a pedestrian in a stolen car during the Melbourne Marathon has told a children's court he intends to plead guilty.

The boy allegedly struck a fifty-seven-year-old woman near Flinders Street Station on October 11 before crashing into parked cars.

Master Grocers Australia says firebombings, violent assaults, and ram raids have become so common in Victoria that traders are installing panic buttons.

And airlines are defending their decision to cut regional services, saying they can't afford to operate flights that lose money.
