Lame-duck incompetent Australian Commonwealth Government
I wonder what readers think. On the very day the TURC was exposing corrupt CFMEU officials in Canberra – the Choppergate story broke leading to weeks of free kicks for Labor. Now the Federal Court blocks the Adani coal mine in Queensland on grounds the Federal Environment Minister did not adequately consider the effect of the project on a skink and a snake. I read somewhere where this could be rectified in a couple of months. We will see. The Prime Minister has commented on the court decision saying it is “bad for the country” – however it seems clear the Senate is unlikely to pass any laws making environmental legislation less able to be exploited by Green zealots. Wait for climate to be brought into this.
