In contrast to Senator Birmingham's response, the government will be aware that in my home state of Victoria the state government has recently come to its senses and acknowledged that native forest logging is unsustainable and uneconomic and doesn't have the support of the community. Thousands of people are today rallying at the Victorian state parliament in support of protecting our forests. Will the Morrison government also admit that native forest logging belongs in the last century, like sealing and whaling?
