Have a look around Adelaide’s suburb of Campbelltown, or any other area once (still, in many cases) used for market gardening.

Have a look at the gross migrant monument instigated by a migrant councillor at the corner of Glynburn, Lower North East, and Gorge Roads. It was a total flop, and still hasn’t been paid for because nobody, including the large immigrant population gives a stuff about it.

See all the Politis buildings in the CBD. Get out and look around the outer suburbs.

Elderly care? Plenty of ethnic old people’s homes.

The City of Adelaide had a Chinese Mayor a couple of elections ago.

Have you ever been in Adelaide? Get the chip of your shoulder!

Greece seems to the place where you would be happiest, you whinger.

Have you ever been in Adelaide?
What do you ask me Leigh? Every day I drive many thousands meters on Adelaide streets. The question is if you ever visited Adelaide.
If for a so simple thing I read so many lies what can I expect for more complex and less visible things? Go on the google map and check not only the Adelaide but all suburbs to find the truth. There are some people who ignore or do not care for the truth, these people are a small minority and sure I do not write for them. EVERY ONE WHO WANTS TO LEARN THE TRUTH, HE/SHE CAN DO IT WITH ONE CLICK ON THE GOOGLE MAP simple, clear answer.

Leigh,
This picture of Adelaide would have been a huge surprise to the Greek man who was rumored to run it old Theo
He was Greek and pretty much unofficially in charge of most things that happened there.
I met him when I was asked to travel to look at a night club there with more than a few problems. Adelaide was Theo’s town and although he might not have been quite the Sunday school teacher there wasn’t many people who didn’t respect him.

He still ran one of his restaurants personally the six or eight months he spent in Australia. He went back to his beloved Greece each year the rest of the time
There was a person stabbed in the nightclub which was down stairs from his restaurant who died. This apparently was the third stabbing. So old Theo got stuck into the town and contacted the police and told them to close the place down. (I don’t think they would have dared otherwise.)

There are a few people in life that always leave an impression on you. For me Theo was one such a man. He used to drive out every night into the mountain area and get out of the car and stand there looking and talking. It was so cold you’d think you breathe would stop but you dare not move and you would listen in utter fascination as he told his stories. He was hard cold soft warm funny but most t of all wise Greek Australian.
I can assure you this man from Greece would have kicked you up the bum and shown you the road out of town ASymeonakis ( If you were lucky)

PALEIF; it never ceases to amaze me the people you have met and the places you have met them and all the deeply meaningful insights you have gained in these endeavours. They have come in so handy help you make your points on OLO.

It is also pure joy to see you revert to type and drop the veneer of friendliness. So Antonios now needs a 'kick up the bum'? I thought you were planning a penpal discourse with him. Perhaps it is a good thing that you don't have his email address......!

Leigh, you are kinda cute when you start thumping on your chest, and dispensing your usual 'expertise'. My only comfort is that if you are familiar with that neck of the Adelaide woods;.....you are far enough away from me!!

Antonios

I have already pointed out the numerous non-Anglo-Saxon names in and around Adelaide yet you prefer to rave on about seeing only Anglo names for 50 kms.

I hope, next time I get a taxi from the airport, you're not driving. Rave on at me about your pet subject and you'll get no tip.

Do you mean this old Greek man was member of kkk or an other extrem right organization? Only this kind of people could think to kick up me or show to me the road out of town.
We live on 21st century and I can not understand how and why there are people who think and react with your way.
You like an old Greek man who worked hard and never speak or claim any right because he born and grow up in a country under dictator Metaxas's system, no workers rights, no human rights, no women rights, no children , no rights at all, if any spoke for rights next day was in prison. After Greece had war with Italy (Mussolini) after war with Germans, after civil war and after he migrated to Australia. You like the migrants but without rights, you like them as a rushed part of a production machine. You are very angry when they claim their rights and of cause with me. I did not tell to you from begin that when I read your first notice I was sure that your ideas comes strait from the dark ages. You madam ignore very basic things, and it is impossible persons like you to understand or to support migrants, Muslims or Aborigines. Go to human rights commission, UN, to Australia Human Rights Commission, to Amnesty International, read their documents, try to understand and support them, Go to Union movement International and Australian try to understand and support them, go.. go.. learn the basic rules of democracy and respect them, no kick, no out of the city, we have democracy no KKK and after all them start to speak carefully. Every time you right a notice every time you prove how extremely conservative person you are
