It’s approaching D-Day for the people of the Mary River and D-Day for Mr Garrett.
Mr Garrett has the capacity to stop the destruction which is associated with the planned building of the Traveston Dam or he can hand over the last vestiges of authenticity for everything he previously believed in.
If Mr Garrett allows construction of the Traveston Dam then he will only have himself to blame for his self proclamation of hypocrisy.
The Traveston Dam will be an environmental disaster impacting on one of the most sensitive and unique eco- systems on the eastern seaboard.
I sent a letter to Mr Garrett on the 28th October 2009 requesting a meeting to discuss Traveston Dam and as yet he has not replied. It appears that hypocrisy will walk hand in hand with arrogance and this has personified Labor’s approach to the Traveston Dam.
Just as galling is Bob Brown’s announcement that their Senate candidate will campaign on stopping the Traveston Dam, yet it was Green preferences that put the state Labor Government into power and the construction of the Traveston Dam was announced before the election.
You can’t ride both horses; which one are you on Bob and Peter?
