I can understand that, but I have to say that there are families living on this land who have worked the land for over 100 years, so I think that has to lot to do with it. The Wimmera region around Horsham produces up to $2 billion worth of high-quality grains every year. You say you don't have anything to do with it, but why did the Albanese government scrap the goldmine over a mythical insect and is holding up a $29 billion gas project for a poisonous sea snake? When will Australia's world-class farmers be given the same protections against mining as mythical and poisonous animals?
