Coalition marine park review released

We finally have an answer to questions raised earlier regarding the intention of the NSW state coalition for marine parks in the state. Prior to the NSW state election, the coalition courted the anti-marine park movement with a curious form of dog whistle politics. They had previously promised to abolish two marine parks if elected. This time they promised a review, which was enough to get the anti marine park movement on the coalition bandwagon. One can only assume that this gained more votes for the coalition than it lost, as they won the election and rewarded the supporters with a review of marine parks. They even stacked the review committee with scientists preferred by the anti marine park movement and controlled what scientific evidence the committee was allowed to consider.

The review is now done. Like all good committees, their first finding was that there should be a committee to carry on doing their job. Their main finding regarding marine parks is that there should be more of them.

Hooray.

The NSW coalition would like to thank the anti marine park movement for making this possible. Despite these sorts of outcomes, the relationship between the coalition and the anti marine park movement has been a long and fruitful one. After the federal coalition established the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, The Fishing Party started a campaign against the park and against marine parks in general. They went into the next federal election with a scare campaign claiming that coastal recreational fishing would be banned outside of the south east corner of Queensland. They gained roughly half a per cent of QLD senate votes. Due to preference distributions, these votes went back to the coalition, helping to deliver them and extra senator in QLD and control of both houses of parliament. The Fishing party did not blink, as it was obviously the fault of the Democrats. They have since abandoned such subtle methods and instead posted banners on the Fishing Party website begging supporters to vote for the coalition and put Labor/Greens last.

Other recommendations by the audit committee include that someone should tell them what marine parks are for and that scientific research be expanded beyond merely monitoring fish stocks in a reactive sense to assessing the sustainability and resilience of our fisheries.

*Yawn*

Marine parks are the issue. The issue is Greenie fuckwits like yourself avocating recreational lockouts in 30-50% of declared MPAs

Shove your totalitarian ideology up your fucking arse

I will continue to fish in all MPAs just to spite dickheads like you

[freediver]

I have not advocated 30-50% lockouts anywhere.

Go ahead and break the rules. That'll show 'em who's boss eh?

[IQS.RLOW]

Yep, just like I will continue to burn my used oil from my cars to spite you leftwing fuckwits

If you want to save the planet, find some other way of doing it rather than taxing and punishing the people. Just because you have found a way of legislating doesn't mean that that it will work

You nazi hippy leftwing freak

I will fish where I want and burn what I want...fuck you and fuck your Gaia god

[freediver]

All is forgiven.

Namaste.

You're an anti-humanist

[boxy]

Raping and pillaging the environment is anti-humanist. We need it to survive.

Get the population under 4 billion again, and you can go back to killing what you want, when you want.

Get the population under 4 billion again

Another anti-humanist
Your peak-humanism rhetoric has been been refuted since Malthus was a boy and Schneider took up his scare campaign.

The marine park issue is clothed in the same sheep skin as the carbon tax and is no different in that it is full of wooly science and unable to be scientifically proven beyond doubt but enables proponents to extract billions of dollars based on closing down natural activity

Not in the least surprized.

Years ago Neville Wran (ALP) was NSW Premier, got throat cancer so stepped aside, and NSW Labor appointed Barry Unsworth as premier despite not even having a seat in the HoR. Unsworth was an MLC, so NSW dumped a sitting member to give Unsworth his seat.
First thing Unsworth did as NSW Premier was ban semi-auto rifles and pump action shotguns.

Along comes Premier hopeful Nick Griener, who said "We'll repeal Unsworth's draconian firearms restrictions". Horsely Park gun shop gave NSW Liberals $2 million and the Libs won NSW.
The very first of Nick Grieners 87 broken election promises was to not repeal Unsworth's firearms restrictions, with the excuse "We've looked into the matter, and have changed our minds, the gun laws should remain".

Then Howard did exactly the same phuking thing all over OZ 'coz some intellectually handicapped kid with no firearms training whatsoever was supposed to have shot 35 people with a 98% accuracy rating including shooting 5 moving targets while driving a stolen BMW in Taz.

Doesn't matter what any of them say, I don't believe a word of it. Ever!.

As I said, they can bring in whatever laws they like to appease the nazis.

It wont stop the law abiding citizens from doing what they normally do, and it won't make a sod of difference to environmental concerns.

You will notice that the nazis like freeloader have no other offering other than to ban, fence off or regulate those from the natural environment...typical of a city slicker
