It can be confirmed today that Aayden Taylor’s blood is running hot.

The 22-year-old from Betoota Heights has always been a passionate young man, and with footy season a long way off has been consumed by some topical social issues.

The bridge crew employee with Betoota Shire Council confirmed to The Advocate that he has been getting pretty worked up lately, about some issues that may or may not directly affect him.

Taylor explained that the state and the country’s attitude to a few things lately has been making his blood boil.

“How in this day and age, are people still getting taken by sharks off our coast,” asked the man living over 1000 kilometres from the nearest seawater.

“I just don’t understand how we can’t get drumlines going off the Queensland coast, nets on every beach and a yearly cull happening.”

“All the lefties going on about conservation and all that need to have a good hard look at themselves. We need to make our beaches safe,” said the man whose last dip in the ocean was at the Sunshine Coast January of last year.

“It’s a national disgrace.”

Taylor asked us not to get him started on what happened down in Melbourne a few days ago, a request that we decided to adhere too.
