Scapegoat

Yrs & yrs of poor water management across QLD NSW VIC SA and just look at all that water in QueenslandFlooding and still no one is willing to think of a way to save more of that water auspol

ABCRural Niall Blair ( Minister for water 2017) is another incompetent Minister in a whole line of Mike Baird & GladysB incompetent govt . I don’t feel one person can be singled out ,there’s a whole group of environmental vandals . He takes advice from other incompetent people...idiots .

Let’s not forget this whilst we’re at it

Spin lies and more spin People are disengaged with politicians because politicians have disengaged with their duty to those who put them in their positions. Looking after vested interests that are not in the national interest

We are all going to be sacrificed for the profits of multinational rice/cotton. One big civilised suicide cult.

Scapegoated.

Criminals, just out and out liers and criminals-all the politicians involved in this mess. Can't not believe a single word they utter. The back step, side step, dodge duck, weave n spin do and say anthing to take responsibility. When all we need to hear is: we Are responsible

ABC bias . Commissioner refers to several generations of political mismanagement. ABC publishes photo of Niall Blair Nat Minister . Blatant bias !

What will the Murray-Darling Basin Royal Commission reveal?After 12 months of hearings and investigation, South Australia's Murray-Darling Basin Royal Commission will deliver its findings. Here's a look at how we got here. Interested to hear why the Commission thinks the Basin Plan breaches the Water Act. The Act is pretty clear that the plan needs to optimise economic, social and environmental outcomes in the use of the basin's water resources. When will this madness of millions & millions of white European-Christian immigration end to the Indo-Asia-Pacific? They are moving onto raping Australia like they have done of their sheit hole whites only Native Europe they escaped from. ENOUGH! Having been on an advisory board for a catchment management authority, it will reveal widespread corruption and knowing fiscal irregularities,.

Findings from Royal Commission into Murray-Darling Basin plan to be released | Sky News AustraliaFindings from the Royal Commission on the Murray-Darling Basin plan's report will be released to the South Australian Government.\n\nThe inquiry was launched to interrogate the plan's implementation amid scandals around water theft and rorting. \n\nHundreds of thousands of bony herring, golden perch and carp were found dead on Monday along the Darling River in far western New South Wales.\n\nThe mass death comes three weeks after up to a million fish died in the same area near Menindee.\n\nImage: News Corp Australia\n\n\n\n\n\n I thought the whole purpose of the MDBC plan was to guarantee a minimum environmental flow. By these fish kills we now know it has to be more than the current flow without any change to other land management practices.

Murray-Darling Basin Royal Commission slams authority for 'gross maladministration'The Murray-Darling Basin Royal Commission finds Commonwealth officials committed gross maladministration, negligence and unlawful actions in drawing up the multi-billion-dollar deal to save Australia's largest river system. Man I hope some fkrs end up in prison for this. The biggest maladministration in MDB is the SA government maintaining a man-made freshwater lake at the end of the system, which is currently being kept at over 90% capacity. But I bet the SA report doesn't mention that.

Barilaro's backing of federal Murray-Darling Basin royal commission muddies watersNSW Deputy Premier John Barilaro has conceded that a federal royal commission into water may be necessary as desperate residents in far west NSW demand urgent action from the state government It's interesting that some people keep pushing for a big Australia. Meanwhile we are fighting over and stealing water! Was John Barilaro suggesting that environmentalists are to blame for the lack of water? He seemed to be saying, 'Forget the environmental impact. Just build dams as fast as possible regardless.'
