WTF! How is this possible!!! Election now!!! 😡😡😡

Funny that there's no right wingers complaining about the waste of money

Give us our money back you rotten blighters.

How are they allowed to do this? Did Sky news actually ask them

Election Now!!!

The Government does need to notify public of important changes ...Wonder how much was wasted on the Marriage Debacle?

How come I can only remember Clive Palmers?

Imagine if they spent that much exposing all the brands that flout our tax system? We’d have tens of billions more in the budget!

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.

Silver lining to Murray-Darling fish deaths: people are finally paying attention | Sky News AustraliaResearch Director at The Australia Institute Rod Campbell told Sky News that problems have been building in the Murray-Darling for some time, and the silver lining to the fish death cloud is that people are finally paying attention.\n\nMr Campbell says there’s a lot of concern among landholders across the Murray-Darling regarding water supply. \n\nAustralia Institute research shows that mismanagement is the cause of the issue, but drought is the catalyst. TheAusInstitute Rain will solve most of it. TheAusInstitute how stupid to take so much water to cause such a disaster. And when there are floods there are no dams to store it. Very bad management.
