Unimpressive arguments
Surely the objectors to a McDonalds at Umina are not impressed by some of the arguments put forward by their fellow objectors.
For instance, "The food supplied would be offset by the loss of food from Woy Woy, West Gosford, etc".
Is he kidding?!
The people from Woy Woy are going to come and eat at Umina?
And clean dunnies are "available at Woy Woy".
Boy that will be handy when I'm having my morning coffee at one of the cafes on West St.
I saw that there were approximately 1500 signatures on a petition submitted.
Umina, (not counting Ettalong and good old Daleys Point) has an official population of over 16,000 which make the objections a very small percentage.
Take away the vested interests and little old ladies that sign the petitions because they are friends of the cafe proprietors and I think it might be a lot less.
There is no doubt that the majority of people would welcome the opening of a McDonalds.
