Big questions for #springst with news coming out of NSW on Senior ETU official arrested with 167 guns and $120,000 cash. Last year @Steve_Dimo and @JacintaAllanMP announced the opening of Snowy River NP and Errinundra NP to shooting at request of ETU. afr.com/work-and-careers/wor…

Labor and the Liberals are taking MILLIONS from corrupt companies, big banks, fossil fuel giants, property developers and supermarkets.
The Greens are fighting for laws to ban these dirty donations and stop the influence of big business and billionaires on Victorian politics!

Carbon leakage not only disadvantages countries and businesses that are attempting to do the right thing, it is bad for the planet because it slows the global rate of emissions reduction, writes Mike Seccombe.

Bang, bang ‼️ they shot it down.
The ETU sided with the gun lobby to kill a national park taxpayers shelled out $1.2B for …and Labor just walked away - hmmm why?🤔

“Around the country, the shooting lobby have delayed, undermined and stopped effective feral deer control for decades and are the reason feral deer numbers are growing. If the government is serious... they need to stop pandering to the shooting lobby.” satpa.pe/C6GZ6tt

Vic Govt’s “Best of the Bush” plan opens parks up, especially for users of firearms. Guns in family parks means safety risks, wildlife disruption & undermines conservation. Parks should be for peace, not firearms. Has the premier missed the news? #springst premier.vic.gov.au

Why does @Steve_Dimo keep throwing our wildlife, parks and public safety at the feet of the shooting lobby in Victoria?
The continued protection of feral deer over native wildlife and ecosystems and the shooting of native wildlife are not modern values let alone labor values
Sarah Rees retweeted
Feral deer lobbists and the @ETU_national are dancing for joy as their "protected game" aka feral deer swarm farmland & the bush. There is no doubt they are the new Cane Toad, but instead of ramping up control, @Steve_Dimo maintains their protection under our "Wildlife Act" 🙄
This Friday, we are launching the guidebook to the Great Forests at Readings bookshop in Hawthorn, should be fun so come along. RSVP here readings.com.au/events/great…

Last week Premier @JacintaAllanMP and @Steve_Dimo smashed the Alpine National Parks Management Plan by letting rec shooters into the Errinundra National Park and Snowy River National Park with zero public consultation and no known or public risk assessments.

Jeff Kennett's legacy still lingers in the great forests of the Central Highlands 🌳🐨
The dodgy contract should never have been signed, the forests could never meet the contact particularly after fire and ecosystem collapse #Kennettscockup

We haven’t fixed Melbourne’s ‘access to parks’ problem by declaring parks more than 100km away. Lerderderg was already a park, that’s a double-dip, Minister. #springst

Can't we just log those outdated ideas instead? 🌳 Preserving forests like the Great Forest National Park isn't just about nature, it's about our jobs and future resilience. Time to act sustainably!
Not all Labor premiers are equal…NSW are winning on so many fronts🌳
In May, NSW Shooters, Fishers and Farmers MP Robert Borsak introduced a bill to the state’s parliament that would legally enshrine a “right to hunt”. It has quickly, and surprisingly for some, found the notional support of Premier Chris Minns.
