But the rural block at Tara, west of Brisbane, has been catapulted into the national consciousness afterat the scrubby property at Wieambilla on Monday.
Day Street runs through the middle of Tara, with establishments either side. It has a pub, a hardware store and a couple of eateries. On Wains Road, where Wieambilla resident Alan Dare was shot and killed, some blocks are worth as little as $1,500, while next door there are properties worth up to $2 million, owned by coal seam gas company QGC — which went on a buying spree in 2014, acquiring blocks to help establish its gas network.
Working for Tara Shire 20 years ago. It was known these people were living in gaden sheds basically. Ray Brown knows nothing. We were told never touch them. Leave them alone.
The ABC is against country folk now?
Poorer, disenfranchised, subjected to loopy ideas, no real public leadership or sense of 'normal'. What could go wrong?
I had a woman with a guest book of police visits and both her and son were in jail at some stage .same F idjuts getting social housing from Certain sector of govt
News or taxpayer funded propaganda outlet?
If you talking about isolation from the rest of your society then yes i could talk about the ills that have come from it but them the opposite can also be said about different society!
I live out here. There are some really nice people. There are shady people. Just like living in Brisbane, Sydney or Melbourne. It just the services out here which are pretty much none does not help. Only a few doctors in the town and hard to get a appiontment. Only pub to hangout
Social dislocation is right here in the cities too. - instagram, snapchat, tick tock, Uber deliveries instead of visiting places, etc etc. Do a story on this first. It affects more people in cities, than a handfull of deluded preppers in the outback.
A pejorative article that encourages culture wars. Strictly speaking everyone, except the original inhabitants, are blockies. Can we have some articles focusing on the many red flags that were missed.
Do people making comments actually read the article
ABC culture wars.
Just let Bill Gates take them over ……
Social dislocation can occur in the middle of a crowd....where are people supposed to live if they want a house and some space?
Well there you go. If you choose to live a simple life detached from the government tit you are now a terrorist who kills cops. Independence from .gov must be made to look evil at all costs.
A lot of cookers in the comments section 🙄
As I see it. The common denominator in the fracturing of society, is the constant media barrage of negativity. We used to have reporters, now we have activists disguised as journalists in all legacy media outlets. One-day I hope we realise where the real rot in this country lays.
King of the sweeping statement! Nimbin, Mullum, Mudgee, Goulburn etc were also full of 'blockies' after mostly unproductive farmland with 'no power or water' were split into blocks. Majority are now thriving productive regional areas.
They want you back in The Matrix.
I’m honestly surprised the abc hasn’t started warning us of the dangers of veggie patches and Steiner schools yet. Something to look forward to I’m sure…
Here we go 🤦🏼♀️
Really poor bit of journalism!!! So bias
Stop creating drama where there isn't any! You are nothing but a mouthpiece for the NWO.
The ASIO policy paper (2022) states that people who live self sufficient lifestyles are potential terrorist threats...
hmmm another agenda perhaps? - 'there are properties worth up to $2 million, owned by coal seam gas company QGC — which went on a buying spree in 2014, acquiring blocks to help establish its gas network.'
This is one of the most bigoted articles I have ever read on .
There are hundreds of thousands of small block dwellers around Australia. You're attempt to label them as Terrorists is despicable.
So are gated housing developments in urban areas. They determine who lives there and make life very difficult for those who don't fit in
One could almost believe that Greg Hallam doesn't realise the local council approved those subdivisions in the first place.
The authoritarian behaviour of our governments during covid was always going to result in this tragedy.
What these owners are saying is they have had enough of modern living and want something different away from local state governments
