OPEN LETTER TO KEVIN RUDD[continued]

Regardless if "You" care or "not" that Australian Animals are being dragged chased with axes skinned alive thrown off trucks their eyes pulled out while alive their tendons slashed- All as a matter of standard- There are some 'other" questions to be answered Mr Rudd

Questions

Why did you withold information supplied to you in regards to disturbing information regarding the biggest enquiry ever held in this country the AWB enquiry and its clear connection to live exports Mr Rudd?

2 Dont you feel the public have the right to know the truth Mr Rudd?

3 Why did you head for the hills just two days after the 60 Minute enquiry when you were supplied with documents supporting the fact that the AWB purchased the live Animal Exports from Wesfarmers in August 2003 in a attempt to distance themselves from the barbaric vile trade after the very public Cormo express.?

4 Do you agree that a leader of opposition has a duty to disclose all the facts of an enquiry known to him or her?

5 Is there in fact a duty to do so?

Do you feel it is appropriate for a PM , Minister or Leader of The Opposition to have a beef farms sheep farms and conflicts of interests?

6 What do you think for example of Amandas Piggery?

Our Nations greatest Shame yet we have dozens of people with political influence with clear conflicts of interest -

7 Do you feel this is exceptable?

Please!dont give the Australian people more dribble about making changes Mr Rudd.
The "fact is" we have NO CONTROL of ships not owned by us and "less control of laws in other countries."

It may be a political tool to brand Animal Welfare and Rights groups as extremists and worked well in the past Mr Rudd
That is why People Against Live Exports have formed together as ordinary everyday Aussies who enjoy a steak and res as much as the next guy.
We like to know its treated humanely from padock to plate including our market.

Well, perhaps Kevin is actually a smart fellow, who understands
the great deal of misinformation and emotional rhetoric that
various animal libber groups are pushing, when it comes to the
live trade. How many of them are actually vegans?

Fact is, thousands of WA farmers would go broke without the live
trade and he would be aware of that. This last drought told an
interesting story. When supply exceeded demand, tens of thousands
of sheep in the saleyards were selling for 5-10 bucks, whilst the
live trade came to farmers rescue and paid 60. With the difference,
farmers could buy food for their other livestock and feed their
families.

Nobody at all has put forward a viable alternative! Meantime
farmers are the only ones spending money in the ME to improve
livestock welfare conditions. Our beloved libber groups seem
to prefer sitting by their computers, trying to dictate to farmers.

So Kevin is wise to not listen to a few extremists, but take time
to understand the facts and then make an informed judgement.

Well said Yabby. About time some of these nuts started putting their money where their mouth is, and spend to improve the welfare of ALL animals in the countries in question, not just those from Australia. Put up or shut up.

What can I say? The live sheep trade has a high mortality rate, livestock dies in transit. The animals are slaughtered in primitive conditions and subjected to unnecessary cruelty but we don't have to pay Australian slaughtermen or pander to the unions.

If BHP had wanted to train up Australian workers for mining jobs they would have stepped up their training program when they were planning their operations. They didn't because they wanted to import skilled workers to keep wages down. It takes 10 years to bring mining operations on stream.

No use whinging about the lack of workers in WA, years of depression [oops - low economic growth] has seen a drift of people to the east.

K Rudd and Ms T Rein appear to be John and Jeanette clones, well a lot richer and younger.

In reply to people against every thing ,that is basically what we are talking about isn't it.
If our next prime minister is to be put down for not thinking like every marginal minority he would be forever not liked.
Kevin will govern in the best interests of Australia not just minority's.
Exports of life sheep if not from Australia from other country's will always take place.
Quality of transport and care is a concern the exports are not.
Markets for carcases do not exist.

Matt@Righthinker.

Ah, someone able to put a few words together- and! a sense of humour.

Question- Matt why Kevin Rudd 'jodged' the information regarding AWB.

Billie- Rudd felt he could avoid informing the public?

Should we be pushing for a bill to ensure it does not happen again.?

Did Mr Rudd have a duty to inform the public?

I dont want this thread about live exports

I will open another thread for people to ask questions.

AWB was the biggest enquiry ever held in this country and was Kevin's job and duty to inform the public .

"Instead" of Kevin Rudd who was 'desperate for some media attention grabbing this oportunity he avoided informing the Australian public.

He as we term it, legged it out the back door and headed for the hills.

'Somehow' Kevin Rudd Shadow Minister for Trade? and his advisor even managed 'not to see' the half a dozen strippers standing outside the AWB enquiry with Ban live Export Banners.

It however did not go unoticed by AWB themselves who were visably shaken and abusing the strippers desperate to keep it from the public.

I can now disclose docements were delivered to Mr Rudds office reagarding AWB.
Another copy was sent to Senator Andrew Bartletts office.

"Although in hindsight as labour and the Dems work so closely together with preferences I guess one would have proved sufficent."
Speaking of feeding the chooks.

Neither mentioned the quite sale from Wesfarmers to AWB right in the middle od the AWB enquiry.

Thats the sort of stuff Mr Rudd was looking for-
or was it?
Were they?

As reported>

THE RSPCA may have the answer for fed­eral Labor politicians struggling to galv­anise voters with the AWB bribery scandal.

The recent 60 Minutes program on Channel 9 revealing cruelty on Australian cattle in the Middle East hit a nerve.

Many Australian voters may not give two hoots about $300 million in kickbacks to Saddam Hussein to sew up Australian wheat sales to Iraq. But it would be a different story if the AWB was ever linked to live exports.
