Independent MP Zali Steggall has called for the 100-year-old “thriving” Balgowlah Golf Course to be shut down and handed to the local school, says former professional golfer Mark Allen.
Mr Allen joined Sky News host Steve Price to discuss the push to shut down the popular golf course.
“When I came back on my little trip I was looking at all the parks everywhere – nobody was in a park on a beautiful Melbourne day, I went past Brighton Golf Club and there are people everywhere enjoying themselves,” Mr Allen said.
“The only parks that are worth going to are one where people carry around a gold club.
“But they forget that people pay green fees to keep these beautiful courses the way they are.”

“Why would Jaguar go for this?”

“Do we even have a comprehensive plan in place yet Brisbane before we start worrying about the trimmings?”
