Opinion: What is the long-term future of Portland?

I am an independent journalist (ex The Australian; Adelaide Advertiser; Messenger Newspaper Group) and author living in Warrnambool, and on this site I express opinions and investigate local issues. I am a feminist, a humanist and not a member of any political party, but I definitely lean to the left. #newwarrnambool
