In the first thread about this subject I ,and others reminded posters Lyn White is not to be trusted.
And I posted those links, that her driver had paid $6 Australian, each, to two workers to let her film.
That link was prove true, by another story reporting a face to face interview with one of those two.
This event was not then related to hurting cattle on film, the second event seems to be the one.
But those two men had their life ruined, that is a lot of money for them but they got sacked and sent to Coventry by their village and family's.
First, try to get in to an Abettors in Australia armed with Cameras, it will not happen.
I think it is even more unlikely to happen in that country.
Not every one will understand, but animal rights groups are often very extreme, we all want better, but it is my view Lyn White Vegan,is the extremist within an extreme group.
Animal rights groups are not in safe hands, insist on animal welfare but on truth too.
Australia suffered at the hands of uninformed do gooders some of our farmers will never recover from what I see as an act of terrorism, same tactics same lies same result.
Some farmers are considering suicide over this.

Lexi,

Given the time between the airing of the film, and the banning of exports, there was not the time for an investigation. Neither was one announced or mentioned, so unless there is evidence to the contrary, I believe that there was no investigation.

Don't start blaming the reporter now even if she did do all the things that are being said.
It wasn't the reporter who ruined many lives in the australian & indonesion Beef industry & the countless flow-on industries.
It was the present Prime Minister who ordered the exports to be stopped. No-one else. She is solely responsible for that but I'm sure there are sufficient morons out there to keep supporting her.
The flow-on effects of this most dreadful decision will haunt us for decades & some families will not get over it at all. What the present academic federal politicians don't understand is that if the cattle doesn't get onto the ship then the fuel station doesn't sell fuel, the mechanics don't fix trucks, the agricultural suppliers don't supply & so on. They don't understand that there is no such thing as a stand-alone industry. All industry is part of a huge symbiotic net.
Let's get rid of them asap before we all go down the drain.

The whole rush to judgement was typical of the poor decision-making that has typified the Austrlain body-politic for some time. Too much power concentrated in the hands of party hacks and too little in the control of genuinely competent decidon-makers. this applies across the brad and has only got worse with the rise of the Fairies.

While there may not be much consolation in the thought that the Libnats will be in power soon, it's certainly some that the ALP will be away from it. Let's hope some genuinely decent candidates arise in the bloodletting that will surely follow that defeat.

Dear rehctub,

Whether or not this was a set-up - Liberal MP
Beck is rolling out the information far too
late. He could have saved an entire industry
far earlier. It again appears to be more
politicising tactics.

Dear Antiseptic,

I couldn't agree more. A change of leadership,
like Malcolm Turnbull for the Liberals would
improve things greatly.

Ahh..TurnBull. Australias biggest Snob. He have the rats scrambling for crumbs in dumpsters in no time at all. As he & his mates drove past in their Rolls Royces having a giggle to themselves.
