Paul,

"This link to ABC Science will help the 'Greenie Bashers' understand a little about rabbits... I hope. Not one feral species has been introduced by anyone connected to The Greens, but plenty by people connected to other political parties including Liberal, Labor and Shooters Partiee, to name but three!"

Reference please; which feral species did they import?

As to the introduction of rabbits,
"Rabbits were introduced as part of a broad attempt by early colonists to make Australia as much like Europe as they possibly could," says Greg Mutze, research officer at the Department of Water, Land and Biodiversity Conservation in South Australia.

"It was hoped that they would flourish so that the owners could hunt them."

This should be read in the broader context of the privileged classes of the time, I don't think that this refers to the ordinary blokes around the towns or the bush who would have enjoyed a bit of rabbit in the pot. Some of their parents would have been in Australia because they sinned against the perceived ownership of rabbits in Europe.

The bunnies are doing very well in the Northern Ranges of NSW.

Well, the Bunnies won the rugby league after 43 years and I'm a Bunnies supporter, and the English imports were of great assistance to that end. In celebration of the Rabbitohs glories victory I suggest a 12 month amnesty for all Rabits.

Beach; The South Sydney Bunnies wear the Red and Green, are they Trotskyists? Are rabbits Fabians, according to you those Fabians breed like rabbits there are everywhere.

David Shorebridge is one of our finest representatives in the NSW parliament. We the Greens are well aware that this corrupt state Liberal government of Baird's is doing deals with The Shooters Party to grant access for this mob to shoot in national parks in exchange for Shooters Party votes in the LC. All to give the Liberals business cronies, democratically, two votes in The City of Sydney elections. In that way the Liberals hope to oust Sydney's outstanding Lord Mayor, Clover Moore. They can't get her out democratically, (they kicked her out of State Parliament, which backfired because a Clover supporter won the seat)) so they are trying to do it with a underhanded method, typical of this corrupt government.
p/s Those two Bob's sitting in the Legislative Council representing The Shooters and Hooters party are a pair of Rabbits at the best of times.

Paul,

The two Bobs may well be rabbits but they are not liars as are most of the Greens in the NSW State Parliament.
These Greens are proven liars, character assassins and cowards who do their dirty work under Parliamentary Privilege.

If standing up and speaking out for the ordinary people makes The Greens "liars, character assassins and cowards" in some peoples eyes then so be it! Justice must be served by giving the people a voice in their parliament, something they can't expect from the corrupt Liberal and Labor Parties or the minority pressure group represented by the likes of The Shooters Party.

Since when have the greens ever represented the "ordinary" people. The Greens are a self indulgent Party of spoilers at any cost.

paul1405: something they can't expect from the corrupt Liberal and Labor Parties.

True, but none of us can. that's a given.

The Greens are also a minority pressure group no different to the other minority groups. The difference is that the Greens are a laughing stock compared to all the other minority groups.
