Issy, I don't think Adani will get off the ground. The money is not there, either from the taxpayer or privately. The business case is weak, and environmentally its a disaster. Surly there is no expectation from you that the taxpayer should foot the bill.

Paul,

And Brown eye Bob is doing this to save a bird? I know that he has always been fond of a Cockortoo, but screw up jobs for 1000s of Queenslanders and $bns of tax revenue is just stupid.

Dear Shadow Minister,

Brown eye Bob and Cockortoo?

Why do think that is okay? An attack on a person's sexuality because you disagree with his politics. School boy humour should really be left to the school boys don't you think?

SM,

Screw up jobs for hundreds of Queenslanders?

You've got that right.
They're going to bring in cheap labour
from overseas - and we;'re going to be paying for it.

It is stupid to even consider it.

Tim Blair. The Carmichael coal project could be delayed by up to five years,” the Courier-Mail wrote, “after the state Labor government demanded Adani count the precise number of black-throated finches living on the property.”

Couldn't we just swap the Greens with Black-throated Finches ?
