This shows just how stupid, shortsighted, captured and corrupt Australia's political class are, they have torched our potential collective prosperity.

Will they do the same with a rare and precious minerals boom?

Almost like instead of paying out billions to private shareholders the money goes back into the system to be used for the upkeep of the infrastructure.
Nationalisation of public services works and prevents profiteering.

Worth checking Environmental Justice Australia’s analysis of EPBC Act reform now in Fed Parliament. Check out their Scorecard: Www.envirojustice.org.au/environment-law-reform-scorecard/
How does the package stack up overall? (To be updated as more info comes to light.). Great job by EJA by the way.

This will all be for nothing if remediation of the skate's habitat isn't undertaken. The federal Labor government, in changing the law, has allowed salmon farming to expand in Macquarie Harbour. Despite these breeding efforts it's likely the Maugean Skate is headed for extinction. #politas #auspol
From a specimen unexpectedly launching itself out of a tank, to another dying from a gastrointestinal blockage, and bite marks made during mating rituals, the ABC can reveal the challenges scientist face keeping the endangered Maugean skate species alive.
