23.01.2022 Cate Faehrmann made the effort to come out and spend time with Darling Barka river communities to see first hand the effects of over extraction on the rivers ecology and communities. Cate is a wonderful advocate for the river and is bringing its plight to Sydney . Great to see cate up bush and all who spent time with her and Jacob ( key staffer) enjoyed the sincerely and fact finding of the visit and both are always welcome up bush at any time . Cate also strongly voted for the disallowance motion which is a watershed moment in the future of the Darling Barka river system and its communities .
23.01.2022 Today, the Santos project for NarrAbri coal seam gas extraction was approved by the Independent Planning Commission. This project falls in the Namoi valley, a major tributary to the Barka-Darling. Farmers, Aboriginal communities and rural communities who will be impacted have been talking about the threat to the underground and surface water supply. Our rivers are connected, if the Namoi is harmed then the impacts will flow downstream and impact communities right along our... rivers. Our thoughts are with those who go to bed uneasy tonight for what the future holds for the Namoi. NSW's gas landscape changes as $3.6 billion Narrabri project gets green light http://www.abc.net.au//santos-narrabri-coal-seam-/12716350
22.01.2022 G,day ladies and gentlemen. Again we call for you help, Malinda pavey is trying to put forward a legislation that will legislate flood plan harvesting. This will weaken and destroy the river that we and so many other depend on. Submissions are due on 20 December - please make a submission. Please also contact your local NSW MP and make sure this legislation does not get through when it comes up in Parliament. Information on submissions is available here: https://www.industry.nsw.gov.au//proposed-legislative-amen
22.01.2022 As the nations dams run dry and the natural lake systems such as the menindee lakes are deliberately killed the questioned must be ask. : Why are there so many greedy people in the northern basin of the darling barka getting away with murder of system while there are ripple effects cross the whole basin are allowed to kill the system under the watchful eyes the LNP both state nsw and federally ? .
21.01.2022 The health of the Murray-Darling isn’t just what is happening in the river channel; floodplains are critical and their health is important. New research today shows that only one quarter of floodplains which were due to get water under the Murray Darling Basin Plan did between 2014 and 2019. The problem? ‘Constraints’ such as farming land can’t get flooded without negotiation. The Federal Government have put zero effort into addressing these constraints and working with farm...ers and councils, meaning we can’t get water to floodplains. The floodplains need floods, but they are not allowed to get them. This is a huge issue on the Murray valley in particular. It's the most flood-prone land in Australia. But this research shows it's being 'blocked' from getting water http://www.abc.net.au//murray-darling-missing-wat/12887342
20.01.2022 The National Party is a disgrace both state and federally and must pay at the next elections with being decimated and dismantled. Findings after findings show their total disregard for anything expect their cotton masters . We would ask you to contact the NSW premiers office and ask for the water portfolio be taken away from Pavey and the national party immediately. The greed and corruption and disregard fir the rivers and every other Australian needs to atop . We must continue to fight for a federal royal commission before the whole basin collapses under the greed of the National party’s puppeteers in the northern basin of the Darling Barka . Another great article by Peter Hannan of the SMH
19.01.2022 What’s left of the the National party is a rabble still hellbent on killing the river system for their northern masters. So there policy remains allow the greed and corruption to continue in the northern basin ,with no effective metering of water until 2022 . Then turn around and justify the killing of the Menindee lakes and the river system to protect the greedy water masters in the northern basin. The nsw government must take the water portfolio off the national party an...d stop being totally complicit with the greed and corruption in the northern basin. Pavey is doing whatever it takes to protect the greed in the north with total disregard for rivers, communities and all our decendants and it must stop. Either the Liberals take back the water portfolio immediately or as the facts come to light they will be brought down in government . See more
19.01.2022 Great too see fingerlings returning to the river systems . But for his long with the current LNP governments continued ignoring of the greed , theft and over extraction these fish are also destined to die on a dry river. . The fish scientists are trying their best fit the ecology of the rivers but without water there fate is the same if hundreds of millions of others , slow cruel death in a drying river puddle where the once Mighty Darling Barka once ran.
18.01.2022 For all those who love and want to protect the rivers and lakes of Australia we need your help . These are politicians that have voted against Helen Bill for transparency. So if you want to help the river and live in nsw please look through this list and look at your sitting member. If the member voted against Helen bill then please contact them and let your feelings be known . Put pressure on the politicans to allow the truth to come out and it will be another step in the right direction. The LNP are a disgrace to hide the truth and it’s only through us all building the pressure that politicans will be forever to act with integrity and support Helens Bill.
17.01.2022 The National party has no support, no relevance and no future in the bush and will be replaced next election . The National party have become only puppets for their northern masters , while attempting to force thru legislation to kill the Darling Barka and Menindee lakes , together with communities along it. By not only killing Darling Barka communities but denying water throughout system means honest farmers and irrigators on the Murray are being denied access to the water they have had for generations , to run their businesses and feed you into the future. The Liberal party must get rid of their ties to the National party before the truth of the greed and corruption and show the liberal party too have been totally complicit in the crimes of killing the rivers with the Nationals .
16.01.2022 A great gritty documentary by Dan and Ottis of the HomeLandings media , on the Wilcannia bridge blockade some months back. The local Barkindji Nation are loosing not only their river but ability to pass on their culture and knowledge to the young generations . The MDBA promised a First Nations voice on their board and yet again have broken their promises to the communities and First Nations of the Darling Barka. Great input on the documentary by Emma Carmody from the Environmental defenders office who puts here heart into helping all of us on the Darling Barka in our defence of the river and Menindee lakes .
14.01.2022 Helen Dalton water transparency legislation must pass as a first stage of the Darling Barka recovery. We must know the facts of legal/ illegal water right holders in nsw. We need it dating back to 2007 with a register including all politicans and public servants ( relating to wated including all MDBA staff ) and their families and complex company structures included. The Liberal party must jettison the National party as they have no relavence and are only puppets to their n...orthern masters . Either the Liberal party takes the water portfolio off the National party and support Helens legislation or time will show them to be as guilty/ complicit of the environmental destruction of the rivers and ecology as the national party . Please continue to contact your local state members and demand they support Helen Daltons legislation with regard to water transparency in NSW or they are merely themselves puppets for the national parties masters( cotton, China,corporates and corruption ) at the expense of every other Australian .

13.01.2022 The greed and corruption in water has no respect for the rivers. Doing their best to killed off Darling Barka, and trying to drain the lifeblood out of the Lauchlan and Murrumbidgee rivers the northern water masters appear now to be moving into the Fitzroy please fight for our rivers nationwide as it’s our children’s futures that we must protect . Our responsibility to stand up against the greed and corruption trying to justify any way they can to kill the rivers for short term profit , throughout any river of our beautiful nation .
13.01.2022 Ladies and gentleman to date channel 7 and 9 are yet to show the deliberate destruction of the Darling Barka and we need their voice to show the public the truth. The Darling Barka needs to be shown in its true light with the greed and destruction of the river system by greed and corruption. The political puppets of the northern masters continue to change laws to benefit the few at the expense of the river system and the ecosystem throughout the river system . We welcome an i...n-depth look at the facts by the tv stations to come up the Darling Barka and report the facts to the city people of the delicate destruction of the Menindee lakes the river and the communities that feed our great nation . Please continue to invite the press to see first hand and report the facts to city people of the worst man made disaster in our countries history Thankyou . See more
13.01.2022 While it is amazing the ICAC couldn’t find corruption ( how far did they dig) it is refreshing to see yet another report showing the pigs in the river. Sadly we have people in our country with no one in mind but themselves and they must be exposed and face the courts did the environmental destruction they have caused in ghf Darlinv Barka. This report again exposed the facts that the MDBA is a disgrace and should have a total change at the top to actually protect the rivers ...and lakes . I ( Rob) would be delighted to see Bill Johnson and Maryanne Slattery together with First Nations representatives on the Board of MDBA such as uncle Badger Bates .. only then would be gain confidence they are working for the rivers . Currently the MDBA senior management must be replaced with honest Aussie’s who want to protect their rivers ans kajes and all out futures . See more
10.01.2022 Sadly we have people and corporates including foreigners who have no respect for your countries rivers , lakes and futures. Greed has become a sport in the northern basin with the national party and the MDBA seemingly protecting the illegal growth of dams. The National party must be obliterated at the next state and federal election. First Nations have been promised to be on the board of the MDBA and nothing !... and finally no top cop investigating since Keltys inept fight.... Seems the LNP don’t care for Australians future but to be the puppet of the big 4 only ( cotton, China, corporates and corruption) . At the next election the LNP must be replaced with hard working honest policans who will protect your rivers and lakes before they are collapsed by the greed. Great work by Maryanne Slattery and Bill Johnson both of whom are honest and hard working as the day is long . See more
09.01.2022 Today the NSW Independent Commission Against Corruption released the findings of their lengthy investigation into corruption and maladministration in the Murray-Darling. Whilst the ICAC did not find evidence of corruption, they found numerous and repeated occasions of maladministration and breaches of the NSW Water Management Act 2000. These instances of maladministration are STILL happening. It’s time for change - our river, our country and our communities will die if NSW does not fix the repeated maladministration of the Darling. https://www.theguardian.com//murray-darling-basin-icac-fin
09.01.2022 Questions need to be asked of senior levels of KMart as to sustainability of cotton . 80 percent of the waters taken from the Darling Barka is taken by cotton, most is not all of the floodplain harvesting of huge amounts of water taken /stolen from the darling Barka/its catchment is for cotton. A number of cotton growers take huge volumes of water from the aquifer underground to flood their cotton crops. So how is any of this susutainsble ? I ( Rob) will speak time senior staff of kmart Australia and ask on what basis do they suggest mass over extraction killing a river system is sustainable? The false propaganda has to stop , and the public of Australians must know the facts not the spin of an industry which has already killed the Aral Sea and doing the same to our rivers of Australia .
08.01.2022 Greed corruption and misinformation is the cornerstone of the MDBA. It’s understood top management are on $500,000 plus $ 400,000 for life....is that the cost of integrity .. . Still misinformation from the MDBA and we will never get better until senior staff are replaced and the Barkindji must have their voice in the board as they had been promised by the mdba board. We must have change only by getting the greedy and corrupt out of the system the game is over and the Icac must investigate before the Royal commission we must have .
08.01.2022 Floodplain harvesting is illegal and dispute this the masters of the national party is making Pavey and the nationals try everything they can to make something illegal , legal . Thanks for another good summary by Rob Maxwell
06.01.2022 Good summary of the madness of floodplain harvesting of water by our friend Robert Maxwell . The LNP are doing everything they can to appease their masters and kill the ruver system of the Darling Barka in the process. Floodplain harvesting is illegal abd for it to continue will mean the death if the whole river Warren . Please continue to contact your sitting politicians and stress floodplain harvesting is illegal and must stop .
05.01.2022 The SFF have made a quantum movement in the bush by actually giving the bush honest representation and support . Unlike the National party who are a disgrace and no longer represent the bush the SFF are doing an amazing job. Our thanks goes to Mark Banasiak in the upper house for providing a key element of support with Justin Fields to pass the disallowance motion the other night . The LNP are trying to hide the truth and corruption in water while Mark is striving hard to gain transparency that we all need to bring our rivers back to life .
04.01.2022 Came home from Menindee with all these goodies. This is the Menindee products we remember from years ago and hope to see more of. Tomatoes, onions, zucchini’s, ...peaches, Johnny cake and fresh fish curry. Go to Menindee Post Office for the veg and the river for the fish.This is produced by a little bit of water and hope they can get back to grape growing, fruit growing, fishing and tourism. It’s up to you NSW and Commonwealth government and MDBA to give us a fair share of the the water and stop killing our Darling Baaka River and Menindee Lakes. What gives you the right to destroy our natural ecosystem, natural fish breeding areas, reeds for weaving, yabbies, fish, mussels, turtles, shrimp, birds, Aboriginal and Contact sites, peoples health and well being and much more See more
04.01.2022 Clearly the LNP both state and federally and not looking to fix the greed and corruption on the Darling Barka . The big 4 ( cotton, China, corporates and corruption ) control the puppet policans in both Canberra and Sydney . Please continue to contact your politcans and tell them we need the corruption exposed and policed .
03.01.2022 Ladies and gentleman understand the scope of deliberate water theft taking place throughout the Darling Barka with example of picture attached. Look at the size of the floodplain harvesting is soul destroying and the national party and the liberals are trying to justify it ...Why has the LNP government ( both state nsw and federally ) now and the labor party in the past turned a total blind eye to this type of destruction ? . We need the royal commission as to why politcans ...are able to make millions while they vote to allow this type of operation to be considered sustainable while disclosing no financial interest where there clearly is? . Why has the MDBA done nothing to expose this degree of destruction of the river system? All senior management must be replace otherwise this will continue . Under water efficiency programs this picture could be fully funded by taxpayers to allow the total destruction of the system while Money is kicked back to politcans and political parties . Only thru a royal commission will we get the truth of the money trail and corruption within political parties and the MDBA . See more
01.01.2022 Sadly the greed and corruption exposed over the last decade year On the Darling Barka continues. The huge private illegal dams and flood plain harvesting continues in the north, with the LNP and the MDBA turning a bling eye to the corruption and death of the Darling Barka river system .So sadly the rivers again stop flowing and all we can look forward to is millions more deaths in the coming years. The worst deliberate man made disaster in our countries history on the river...s continues under this LNP government both state and federally .please continue to contact your politicians and demand justice is don’t through effective policing of the rivers rather than the Criminally soft approach currently in place. Due to water theft in the flood 5 months ago the menindee lakes only has about a years supply left then the millions of death of fish and wildlife will sadly recommence ...soul destroying . See more
