24.01.2022 DEATH OF DAIRY How long before we are importing all our milk from China? Last week, I visited an endangered species. One of the last remaining dairy farms in ...the Riverina, owned by Blighty's Lachie Marshall Most dairy farms in his area have gone bust during the last three years of zero water allocation. That's 45 million litres of Australian milk a year no longer being produced. Lachie's dairy farm is making a $1 million loss per year. He'll be forced to leave the industry if there’s another year of zero allocation. That’s 12 million more litres of milk Australia will lose a year, and another 20 jobs lost. He pays $60,000 a year in fixed fees and charges despite having no water allocation. He gets zero drought assistance. There were 90 dairy farmers in the Riverina three years ago, now there are 25. The reason is simple. Dairy farmers can't touch water from the full rivers flowing past them. The water is flowing downstream to South Australia and to the big corporate nut farms near the border. The government is killing an industry. Our dairy farmers must be given an allocation before it's too late. Nobody wants long-life milk from China in their morning coffee. Let's not forget dairy, and let's keep the pressure on Gladys Berejiklian, John Barilaro, Melinda Pavey and Scott Morrison (ScoMo) to save this once vibrant industry.

11.01.2022 IMPEACHMENT WEEK Thank you Topher Field and everyone else who has offered me their support after a brutal week. Just before I introduced my bill on publishing ...the names of politicians and corporations who own water, an anonymous National MP tried to block debate on the topic, then reported ME to the ethics committee. The Speaker will decide by Friday whether I’m to be be investigated. I’ve never been impeached before, so let let me know if you have any tips. Anybody got Donald Trump’s number?

10.01.2022 REFORM, REFERRALS TO POLICE, NOT UNREAD REPORTS Hundreds of people in Deniliquin, New South Wales turned up in the middle of a working day to see Murray Darlin...g Basin top cop Mick Keelty, who is investigating water mismanagement and corruption. The message was clear - to government as much as Mr Keelty. This the 42nd inquiry in the Murray Darling Basin. We don’t want another thousand page unread report gathering dust on a bureaucrat’s desk. We want to see recommendations implemented, real reform and criminal convictions. If not, they’ll be hell to pay. More to come...
