Well in more than one thread I said this mine would go ahead no matter who won
In a live one now I point out if we do not sell this coal someone else will
Zero emissions reduction in that
Labor was too cute, trying to preserve the Greens preference deal it was playing silly buggers
While buyers exist [they will not always] we should sell it, always
BUT keep the environmental laws in place and closely watched other countries did not and say in Brazil and New Guinea are paying a high price for it still

Shadow Minister,

You comment that the State Government of
Queensland has opposed the Adani mine is
not accurate. The state government has
been working on the approval of 2 environmental
management plans. One related to the protection of
the black-throated finch and the other concerning
the ground water management.

However the Premier has now made it clear that she
was "fed up" with the ongoing delays related to
Adani's environmental approvals, ordering her
Coordinator General to expediate approvals currently
sitting with the Queensland Environment Department.

The Premier said in Cairns that the black-throated
finch plan decision was due by May 31st, the ground
water management plan decision was due by June 13.

As she explained:

"I know initially people thought this was months
and what I'm announcing today is - it's just a matter
of weeks."

She want to have these issues resolved.

This has always been a result of Queensland governments
highly responsive actions to the interests and fears
of its diverse communities. Perhaps that's why
Queenslanders have elected Labor governments for 25 out
of 30 years and why they have elected two female Premiers -
Anna Bligh and Annastacis Palaszczuk.

Dear Shadow Minister,

You write,

"Have you been smoking your socks? There is absolutely no doubt that the obstacles and stalling has entirely been on the part of the state."

What rubbish.

That mine will not become fully operational under Adani, they are way too exposed and would be copping a loss on every tonne they ship which they can only sustain for a short while. This is why they are stalling. The whole thing will go skyward and someone like Clive will step in and get it for a song. However not before both the Federal and State governments pump in public money to subsidise it first.

The whole thing is a crock.

I think Bob Brown should get Australian of the year for highlighting the arrogance of lefty inner city Greens rich from tax payer money trying to stop people earning a decent living. Thanks Bob for Giving ScoMO the election.

Can't say I trust Adani- think Bhopal disaster- that doesn't mean I wouldn't support other developers such as Clive Palmer.
