This seems to be occurring everywhere in Australia Barnaby.

I had a recent visit to Ballarat and learnt that windfarms had been placed in areas that prohibited crop dusting which limited the number of paddocks available to the farmer. The windfarm story is another in itself but on top of that farmers have had their water supplies taken and pumped into Melbourne, it seems to allow Melbourne to have their water restrictions relaxed.

Geo thermal power stations are being built on top of regional housing without any concern for the citizens that live there.
We have a full report on our www.dlp.org.au. It seems even with the threat of causing earthquakes in the region; the government there is pushing ahead.

We are allowing Chinese communist government officials to purchase homes in Melbourne, leaving them vacant to push house prices and rent through the roof while robbing resources from our regional towns.

Australia with one of the most under fished waters in the world are placing more pressure of our commercial fishing, while we import 70% of our fish from the most overfished and least environmentally aware areas in the world.
Maybe people enjoy buying fish from the sewers of Viet nam with a slight tang of agent orange for flavouring but I don’t.

Confidence has been reduced in the rural communities and as it continues to do so and as production declines, I'm sure that the bureaucrats will blame it on climate change and not their lust to implement UN conventions like agenda 21 that were never agreed to by the people of Australia but what the ALP and greens seems determined to force onto our nation and especially our small farmers and businessman.

With a bit of foresight and some real planning, water managment, dam building and investment incentives, removals of some restrictions Australia could become the food basin for the world.

If only we had the right people at the helm of this great ship.

Tony:

I think Australia will become more of a food basin for the world after the corporations have succeeded in getting all of the farmers off the land, but this might only be for a short time.

I regularly watch "Landline" and it certainly seems clear that big organisations are well advanced in the process of cutting the ordinary producer out of the food chain.

People need to familiarise themselves with Agenda 21. Then they will know for certain what the Green agenda is. I'm not sure how much farming land will be left after Communist Greens have turned over 50% of Australia to the possums, forests and tropical jungles. Scenes of universal human starvation come to mind.

What I think we need is a Coalition of the Unwilling. This would comprise some of the smaller parties and individuals, and perhaps a section of the Liberal Party, who do not wish to succumb to the many and varied abuses of Bank Rule.

I will be attending the forum organised by Andrew Bartlett (Greens candidate for the Seat of Brisbane). At this forum, Arch Bevis (Labor incumbent), Theresa Gambaro (Liberals) and Andrew Bartlett will discuss the quest by Oxfam for Australians to contribute to the $17 billion being demanded by the Third World EACH YEAR.

I want to find out who is going to take charge of such funds and how they will be used. I intend to suggest that the very global banks that have ripped off our superannuation, and also created problems in the Third World by various skulduggerous means, should donate the $17 billion from their annual profits.

A couple of days ago, I received "The Wilson Report" in my mailbox. This is a publication of Geoff Wilson, State Minister for Education & Training.

He has given Howard Nielsen (unelected Greens candidate) funding to get the people of Samford (semi-rural area very close to Brisbane) onto the Low Carbon Diet.

After significant research, I have found the diet to contain some dairy products and chicken. I'm guessing it might also contain eggs and fish.

Not too many details are available unless you buy the book. I don't think they thought too much about cutting down trees in their zeal to gather funding.

I would call this Round 2 in The Greens' Dietary Agenda to wipe out the livestock industries. Those who wish to read about the Round 1 Diet put out by Peter Beattie will find it in my comments on Barnaby's Mad Cow Disease post.

I am becoming very dismayed by the number of intelligent and/or religious people who have now invited the Green Son of Satan into their churches. No doubt he has first choice of pews on Sundays.

One of these groups is the Church of Christian Science, listed by the Cult Awareness Network as a destructive cult, so word of the Green Son making himself at home there is par for the course. Unfortunately main stream churches are also involved.

These people should know that their bible predicts the coming of a person/group which will fool even the staunchest of Christians into thinking they represent something good, instead of realising they are being sold another large stinking rat.

More than 2 years ago, I predicted an amalgamation (or absorption) of Labor and The Greens, and a certain number of Liberals.

Now I think we have absolute proof that Labor and The Greens are in collusion to control our diets.

Something else that made me suspicious at a global level was the occurrence of the Icelandic volcanic eruption only a couple of weeks before the UK elections.
