PM, your great inland highway halved transport costs between Victoria and North Queensland. Ninety-two per cent of Australia has depopulated to under a million people with no firestick farming, no grazing stewardship, with First Australians land usage gone, 72 per cent of sheep gone, 23 per cent of cattle gone. Could you and Minister King call for tenders for Hughenden's water conservation, wind-solar scheme HIPCo, which would turn it and 15 other dying towns into rich, thriving, energised communities? In spite of your humility, won't this make you similar this century's Jack McEwen and Ben Chifley?
