Senator Milne thinks that by mere repetition she can make a falsehood into a truth. That does not work. You can keep on repeating that there is no market for native forest woodchips, but why is it that Eden in New South Wales is expanding and selling more and more native forest woodchips? What the Greens assert is completely false, but they think if they repeat it often enough it will become accepted within the community. As long as the coalition is in this place, we will ensure that those falsehoods are exposed on every possible occasion.
