One thousand submissions attract 95 per cent opposition to new Tesla factory in Australian city of Adelaide.

'I could not think of a worse developer to sell the land to. Tesla sales have been plummetting [sic] … this is likely to attract protests and negative attention that the neighbourhood does not need or want.'

$1 says they do it anyway and it goes exactly as expected.

Well, the last line of the article does say:

Staff at the City of Marion officially recommended the council sell the land to Tesla, with the proposal to be discussed at a council meeting tonight.

So, you very well may be right. It will be interesting to see which way this proceeds...

It has been approved.

Hope it burns to the ground over and over again.

This will go down well...
