Along with trawling, gillnet fishing is one of the most destructive forms of fishing developed. In places where it has been banned, fish populations have rebounded in a big way.

Whose doing this? Whose paying the IPA? Factually, Murdoch pays for SkyNonsense and Gina Reinhart is the IPA's major benefactor, and l'd imagine the coal industry are benefactors. All of the entities would benefit financially if the ALP lose power. Murdoch bought rights to broadcast SkyNonsense into regional Australia to radicalise the bush and in the last yr Reinhart has been buying office buildings to the tune of $320Mn while pressuring Albo to "save the Comm games" and presumably Australia from whatever embarrassment she/they've imagined we feel from Dan Andrews saying no we can't afford it right now. It's Murdoch & Reinhart that provide the money that runs the scumbags at the IPA and the LNP puppets. Some might describe it as a protection racket. They'd be right. It's organised, fraudulent, ergo criminal behaviour.

[@paulorocky]

Save the Comm games? Does anyone outside the athletes and administrators care about them anymore? I think the real worry they have is that the Comm Games are the only thing that keep the Commonwealth of Nations relevant to the average person. If the Commonwealth Games die, won’t be long until the Commonwealth of Nations, effectively a collection of countries screwed by Britain plus a few tagalongs, goes too. With Australia already being a member of APEC, G20 and an associate member of ASEAN, I don’t see much benefit to being in the CoN anymore. Maybe someone can advise me otherwise.

I hope we get a liberal government in Queensland. Queensland has gotten so much worse with Anastasia in control, too much red tape. She is just as bad as her dad. Honestly, I would even like one nation to get the state.

Sadly, the last intellectual in politics was Barry Owen Jones, AC FAA FAHA FTSE FASSA FACE FRSA. A polymath who would beat the Liberals with plain old facts, no matter what the subject. He is an Australian Living Treasure. He appeared on game shows, and won them all.

Lol the bird death rate one got me. That .02% of a bird that dies per gigawatt is about 5-10 thousand times less birds that die because of the windows on those 750,000 homes in a year. We should all give up our windows and live in dark boxes so that the birds don’t die and then we can build a billion more wind turbines and still be in the green. It’s a win win really because the birds survive and also you don’t have windows to see the hideous wind farm you live in.

[@DatsunBloke7357]

You do hear those wind farms. I think people take shots at them here in FNQ because they are rarely running. I always say build wind farms in the city the bush does not want them.

In the UK Nigel Farage convinced the fishing industry that leaving the UK would save their industry. Brexit happened, the english fishing industry collapsed (mostly) and Nigel Farage never spoke to people in the fishing industry again. He got what he wanted, so why should he. He's currently in Queensland on the UK show "I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!" which paid him £1.5m to appear. And he's so boring they can't find any video of him to use. The point is, well, I'll let you work it out .....

I love Queensland, but most Queenslanders are far from the sharpest tool in the shed. Manufactured dissent works so well. I'm from a country town and these niche stories legitimately lose Labor elections. I'm specifically from an area where the fishers have their voice very vocal even though it's a fkn marine reserve and has been for years

I know of an issue where a "not for profit" gym was sold out from under its members feet to the ambos so they could say at least it was going to a good cause, so they could cover up the fact they didnt consult members like they should have, actively discouraged the mayor to come to the town hall meeting about selling the club (after they agreed to sell it), and despite having a mission to "help kids" removing their location from the area with the most schools than any other LGA in Sydney. Some local papers covered it, but even ACA didnt want to cover it despite the blatant community outrage. oh yeah and there was something about hiding last years PNL, which they were required to display as a charity or something.
