Greens MLC Mark Parnell has condemned the decision to go ahead with the Bald Hills Drain near Kingston in the South East.
Around 200 Mt Barker Council residents at a packed public meeting last night expressed strong concerns with the influence of property developers driving development changes, and called for the community to have a much bigger say in the major land-use changes underway in the District.
Greens MLC Mark Parnell has described the 30 year Plan for Greater Adelaide as a two speed plan - fast-tracked sprawl on the fringes alongside slow progress on transit-orientated development in the inner-city.

Greens Film Fundraiser: MILK
Thursday February 19th
6pm onwards, movie screens at 6.40pm
Nova Cinema, Rundle Street Adelaide (Upstairs, lift available)
(Exact cinema to be confirmed a week from the screening)
Tickets $20/$25 (includes a beer wine or soft drink and cold canapés)
RSVP essential (for catering purposes) to tam...my@sa.greens.org.au
Or phone the State Office of 8212 4888.
Join Senator Sarah Hanson-Young, Australian Greens Spokesperson for LGBTI, for this special screening of the movie of the moment – MILK.
In 1977, Harvey Milk was elected to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, becoming the first openly gay man to be voted into public office in America. His victory was not just a victory for gay rights; he forged coalitions across the political spectrum. From senior citizens to union workers, Harvey Milk changed the very nature of what it means to be a fighter for human rights and became, before his untimely death in 1978, a hero for all Americans
Directed by Gus Van Sant who has elicited an amazing performance from Sean Penn as gay activist Harvey Milk. For more info visit http://www.filminfocus.com/focusfeatures
The Greens have a strong track record of defending the rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex people. We believe all members of our community are entitled to equal treatment before the law and by the community. Diversity of sexuality and gender identity is a part of our community, and our laws should reflect this. Before the film there will be an opportunity to find out more about current Greens activities on LGBTI issues in the parliament.

TWILIGHT - Greens Movie Fundraiser
Sunday December 21st at 1pm onwards (film screens at 1.45)
$15/$18 Every ticket includes a drink (beer/wine/softie) so get along early for some lively or languid pre-movie chat.
Here's the SMH review:
EDWARD CULLEN is a vampire who likes to think of himself as a vegetarian. On this nov...el premise, Stephenie Meyer, the author of Twilight, has launched a publishing juggernaut. Her series of supernatural romances has hooked teenage readers the world over. But even before Twilight was published, a savvy group of American producers bought the screen rights. Now, with the film's successful release in the US, they've realised they have the makings of that prized box-office commodity: a franchise.
But back to the vegetarian vampire who hasn't extinguished his blood lust in favour of prune juice. He has made an impressive sacrifice in restricting his diet to animal blood.
This takes willpower. Just how much is evident from the scene in which he first sets eyes on the new girl at school. The film's director, Catherine Hardwicke ( 13 and Lords Of Dogtown), is known for taking a pretty naturalistic view of adolescent life, but on this occasion she has no qualms about overplaying the moment. British actor Robert Pattinson is already familiar to Harry Potter fans as the saintly Cedric Diggory, and he brings to the role of Edward a consumptive pallor, a perfect profile and a darkly enigmatic demeanour. He's closely related to Heathcliff and to Romeo - although there is one crucial difference. As he directs his hungry gaze at the delectable Bella (Kristen Stewart), you're never sure if he's contemplating the joys of eternal love or the pleasures of a long lunch.
Meyer did not invent the concept of the vampire with a conscience. Anne Rice got there first with her Vampire Chronicles. But the vampire as high school glamour boy certainly pumps a new exoticism into the teen pic. In this context, "going all the way" takes on another meaning.
If nothing else, this leading man makes a change from the Judd Apatow brand of romantic hero - the woman-shy slacker who eschews the dating game to stay at home with his collection of Star Wars memorabilia. Edward's idea of a night on the town is to scoop up Bella in his arms and call on his supernatural powers to take her swinging through the treetops.
The story is set in Forks, a town in the rainy north-west state of Washington - home to firs, fogs and garage bands, although Edward himself prefers a little Debussy played on a grand piano.
When the film opens, Bella has just moved to Forks from her mother's home in sunny Phoenix, to live for a while with her father, Charlie (Gil Birmingham), the local cop. Dark-haired and oval-faced, she's an indoor girl, who's missed out on getting an Arizona tan, which may be why Edward likes her so much. She's also habitually matter-of-fact. Meyer's Bella was prone to swooning a lot. Her screen counterpart isn't. Whether Edward is saving her from being gang-raped or putting himself between her and a speeding truck, she remains remarkably composed. "Uh-huh," she says to the news that he's actually 100 years old and can read minds. It's only during their nocturnal sweeps through the foliage that she seems even vaguely impressed.Read More
