The Howard government do not care about the environment. I will never vote for this government and i urge you all to atleast vote independent.

Yes Dickie I wholeheartedly support all that you say.
Erin Brokovich is over here at this moment helping our local campaigners against big business that do not give a damn for ordinary people. The Howard government are of course puppets of big business and it will be not until all people see the current Liberals for what they are will our Country change for the best. When my wife and I were living in Applecross in the late eighties we were searching around where to live we drove around Rockingham, Safety Bay, Leda and when we saw the plant life dying due to the fall out from that alimiuin plant our mind was made up it woill certainly be the Northern suburbs for us. This will always be for us if Australia decicedes to go nuclear then for us it will be goodbye John Howard we value our safety.

Greed is rife it is the Howard Syndrome today bash workers for the benefit of profits. Pollute our heavens let industry do it and go unchecked. We only have to see that ever consistent cloud that hangs over Rockinham it never ever goes away. What fool government allowed tha Company to be set up on such a picturesquue setting. This is all criminal destroying our marine life every day acceptable standards so they tell us. Why are whales and Dolphins always beaching themselves. These highly intelligent creatures are being sent mad due to sonar sound exploring for mineral wealth. This all has to stop but we need a government who is strong enough to take big business on. Not to say we have to give in to them otherwise they will go to China.

Bronco, Feel better now you have had a rant? Your opinions are based in sensationalism rather than fact. Tell us how you would provide food, energy and employment for a nation. It sound like you are an uncommitted person to national problems by your constant itenerant movements when things arise you do not like. I suggest you do a better job rather than criticise and flee.

Johnny Q you have hit the nail on the head.
The Labor Party is controlled by conservatives issues where the Labor Party is linked. Tasmanian Pulp Mill. Tasmanian logging of old growth forests. American bases on our soil. Government funded Private Education and Health. Privatisation of Commonwealth Bank, Qantas, SGIO. Government Print, West Ed Media, R&I Bank, Privatisation of Direct Labour Jobs, the list goes on and on while profits are made for shareholders. This is why all Democratic Socialists should join the Labor Party. The socialist Alliance and Greens are great but are outnumbered if they joined the Labor Party they will no longer be outnumbered. The Broad Left is the largest faction but is outnumbered by the Catholic Right, Centre, and the New Right. The Labor are not representing the working people of Australia. Right of Entry for advocates of working people must be part of the Industrial process. Uranium Mining has to cease and must only be used for medical and pharmceutical needs. Peter Garret is great but he is captured by the New South Wales Right he has to abide with the consecus view that is democracy. Democratic Socialism has to be a gradual process through reform and Education. A lot has been achieved but unfortunately the Howard Government has destroyed a lot that has been fought for. We need a Radical Labor Party led by Peter Garret.

I'd hazard a guess that you do not reside in WA. Bronco Lane is correct with his assertions.

You need to refrain from criticism unless you have a good knowledge of what the pollutant industries around Kwinana/Rockingham are emitting to atmosphere.

Some of us do go to the trouble of accessing publicly available emission reports pertaining to these industries. Some of us also go to great lengths to better understand the chemical emissions and their scientific impacts on the eco-systems and human health.

I don't believe you have an understanding of the culture within the environmental "regulatory" agencies, where their only concern is for profits.

The current WA Parliamentary Enquiry into Lead Pollution in Esperance will reveal to you, the incompetence of these agencies where they are mere sycophants to the corporate environmental vandals who have been permitted to pollute without any effective emission limits imposed or regulatory enforcement of the EPA Act.
