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.'

@adelaide@aussie.zone @jimcullen@twit.social Why is it public land in the first place. I can't find an answer to that, if this is a park they are turning into a factory that is one thing, but the information I'm able to find suggest this is land is not that. The only reasoning given in your blurb works to "we don't think Tesla is a good company" - which is the NIMBY reasoning we need to oppose or cities will get worse.
