Opinion: It’s a while since I’ve written a Dear John letter in quite so literal a form. But you have a decision to make, and so do I. Your decision is simple. Dominion or domination. Then my decision too is simple | emfarrelly
This year, as even the Arctic burned, your government has affirmed and reaffirmed its commitment to coal andwhich stands to pollute the ancient and irreplaceable waters of the Great Artesian Basin.
Because, John, farmers don’t hate koalas. Which makes it strange that you’d go to the wall on this issue, especially so publicly, when Planning Minister Rob Stokes had already offered you all those concessions. Honestly? It smacks of another agenda.Three things support this construction. One, that the koala habitat protection policy doesn’t even apply to normal farm-type land clearing for cropping or grazing but only if you want development consent.
And speaking of dubious friends, John, I’m a little concerned about your decision to sign off on a $3.3 million government investment in an oyster farm chaired by a mate, and to lie about it –That your investment adviser in this was a company, ROC Partners, that sent another $3.3 million of our money to itself via a Wagyu beef business in which it was a shareholder also bothers me.
