The concern about population and sustainability really has finally become a mainstream subject.
On Q & A, the Libs’ Scott Morrison, Labs’ Tony Burke and Greens’ Bob Brown were all in agreement and in support of Dicko. Wonderful stuff! Nothing short of the best night’s television EVER!!
I reckon that 12 August 2010 will go down in history as the day that that the population / sustainability issue finally broke right through the pro-growth brick wall that has held it back for decades and entrenched its position in the mainstream debating arena and federal political sphere.
Eric, and others who have been fighting the good fight for umpteen years, you should all go out somewhere nice this Friday evening and celebrate!
Cheers ( :>)
