Paul,

I think if Australia was to choose to do much more about reducing greenhouse gas emissions, the first pivotal event will be the Liberal/Nationbal coalition party to state the link between human activity and global warming.

I know it is a view held by the Young Liberals leadership.

As it stands, there remains a lot of division. Hence, SCo MO goes slow mo not to alienate his support and create open warfare within the party.

I have sympathy for this reality. That is politics.

AS i am a longstanding believer in the link between human activity and greenhouse emissions, i would imagine the next step for centre-right parties, should they ever accept the link, would be how to show how the transition can boost the economy.

I expect the NSW govt to lead the way, however.

Issy, creating another of your infamous porkies I see;

"It is indeed Greens policy to support hazard reduction burns, hurriedly put in place after they were so roundly condemned for being against such burns prior to the Black Saturday fires in Victoria when over 170 people lost their lives."

A total lie Issy, a figment of your imagination, I've caught you out once more.....lying! I say produce the evidence!

What is Shooters and Hooters Party policy on fire prevention, I can't find a single word, please enlighten?

Paul,

Somewhere I have the Greens old policy printed out but I won't bother to look for it.
The evidence was plastered all over the Net after the inquiry into the Black Saturday fires, you have a convenient memory.

I remember well the bloke who cleared all the trees and scrub away from his house and was fined by the Greens dominated local council, his home survived when almost all those around him were destroyed.

Might I remind you of the Green's Mayor of Glen Innes who lost a house in the recent fire that wiped out the Wytaliba commune of which she is a member?

She was running around like a heedless chook blaming climate change when she and her fellow communists were told long ago that they'd be burned out if they lived among the gum trees.

It wasn't climate change but good old obstinate stupidity that caused their losses, unfortunately, one of them was burned to death.

So, no evidence Issy!

I hereby award Is Mise; PORKY AWARD first class with bar, for claiming Greens had a policy of no controlled burns in 2009. This is Issy's third PORKY for 2020, and the year is only 9 days old! Shocking!

BTW; When the Black Saturday fires occurred in Victoria it was the Brumby Labor government in charges. The Greens have never been in government ever in the state of Victoria.

BBTW; Where is that Shooters and Hooters Party policy I asked for? If it don't include shooting something dead, then Issy's party don't have a policy for it! Correct

Paul,

That the greens have long been actively campaigning against back burning and fuel reduction is well known and is largely why their popularity in rural areas is comparable to herpes.

Porky Paul,

What is the point of giving you evidence?
You asked for it when I said that Greens MsP were liars and perjurers for swearing allegiance to the Queen whilst openly advocating a republic.

I gave you the evidence which was in the Greens stated policy, you ignored it.

Then as now, you are fully aware of what the Greens policy was and is.

As to the SF&Fs Party on bushfires, it is and has been to support the Government policy, just as most of the rest of the people do, and this is something that you already know; so Porky Paul stop lying by innuendo.
