WAKE up, Newcastle, why aren't you fighting for a maritime museum? Governments is spending money on what I'd say are unnecessary projects, so why haven't we got a Maritime Museum? Why are the ratepayers paying to have our history stored away to rot?
This has been going on far too long. Our children, grandchildren as well as the wider community need to see that Novocastrians are proud of their city, that we are aware of our history and want to share it.
