WHAT HAS THE BLIGH BEEN UP TOO
In a speech to the National Press Club last week, Ms Bligh defended her Government's decision introduce harsh environmental laws in regional Queensland amidst fierce criticism of alleged behind-closed-doors deals with the Wilderness Society and The Greens to secure election-winning votes.http://qcl.farmonline.com.au/news/state/agribusiness-and-general/general/bligh-admits-to-wild-rivers-deal-with-greens/1620074.aspx?src=enews
They’ve locked up production, which has irritated the indigenous community," Senator Heffernan said
"Cape York peninsular is the size of Victoria. There are 800,000 feral pigs there, 20,000 feral cattle, 14,000 people living off the coast, 12,000 of whom are indigenous and that mad mob up there have said to the indigenous people: you can’t get any development opportunities out of that, we’re locking it up!"

When much of eastern Australia is in drought or just recovering she & her mob come up with this little beauttttt.
There is a lot of water that just rushes out to sea, and it could be harnessed for power as well as food production. We have better farming methods that can be implemented and the Indigenous Community could do the work & manage the business themselves with the correct guidance, not the chosen few of Labor Party!
