Friday? the place should be shut down for a month and have safety inspections done on every ride... word has it that the directors have been very secretive with inspection reports.. including earlier this year that some rides were not "fit for service"

Yes just trying to offset the very bad publicity with a one day stunt!

Agree with others on here that all rides should now be thoroughly inspected for safety compliance!

Perhaps have those bad unions provide the inspectors! Grin

Better to just shut the place down and sack all the workers.

There's so many unemployed people now, thanks to the Libs, that a few hundred more won't make a difference.

Good idea, Gordy.

Hysterical pecca making hysterical comments as usual.

Close the place until an independent engineering report is done for every ride.

Reply #10 - Oct 27^th, 2016 at 9:10am mm thanks to the Qld Labor govt this place was allowed to remain open no matter how many times it broke down...anything for money with labor..more important than safety and lives it seems... they probably made a large donation to labor.

Why would you think politicising this tragedy would be appropriate in any form?

You're a piece of cr@p haemorrhoid.

A mechanical and structural engineering check was done on the ride last month, by a specialist external engineering firm.

Did they just audit the one ride, or were they all inspected?
