I obviously keep reading different newspapers to the Greens party, because I don't see the mining companies jumping for joy about our reforms, because they can see that we are actually requiring stronger environmental standards in these laws than currently exist. That's one of the reasons why—silly me!—I would have thought the Greens party might support laws that actually deliver gains for the environment. But of course what we know about the Greens party is that they're more about the politics than the outcome.
