Magazine. “Kanye has been telling people that Kim broke up with Pete to get back with him, but this is not going to happen,” the source told the outlet. “Pete was ready to propose, get married and have a baby, but Kim wasn’t ready to that,” the insider shared. “Her family loved him and her kids liked him too, but Kim just wasn’t so sure.” “Pete is fun and kind but was way too needy.

Pokies gradually on the way out in Mackenzie District
A new sinking lid policy for pokie machine numbers in the Mackenzie District does not go far enough according to the Problem Gambling Foundation.

Class 4 refers to pokie machines in clubs, pubs and TABs – locations other than casinos and previously council had a 65 machine limit with 36 operating and no sinking lid policy.
