Warren Truss silent on coalmining devastation of Mary Valley
Posted by Jim on March 26, 2011
Online comment on article in Daily Telegraph, “Australia keeps selling off the farm”:
If Warren Truss spent as much time looking after his farming and regional constituency, thinking positively about a real food security policy, as he does advocating against mining taxes on behalf of his mates in the coalmining lobby, perhaps less of this would be happening. The Mary Valley in his own electorate – some of it good farming land – faces devastation on a Hunter Valley scale from coalmining and CSG. What has Warren said about it? Nothing.
