Who really represents rural interests ?

What rural person could vote for Labor really?. They kick out Gavin and expect us to believe the wishy washy and weed in the wind O'Brien . Even when facing the audience on Landline this week the soft and muddle headed man can't even find the back bone to state a position that makes sustainability sense -no he said " if the people in the city think we are treating sheep badly the labor party will support the ...........rural people .... or something eqaully as hypocritical and full of bullsh " is he following Garrets lead? - having everything every which way ? .
As Mr Gaurgan pointed out - Kerry O brien is not willing to defend a position . Like so many dummies on environmetal mangemnet he thinks ( on sheep stirring) he can offer a technological out ( better mangemnet of sheep once they arrive in another country? )completely ignoring the incredible inhouse pressure on producers NOW and HERE . Is he not a A woose who would sell his soul to the devil of ignorance and fear before he would state the obvious vote winning and soul saving position - "we will support sheep industry from the simple -who think australia ideally should be covered in trees .....and who don't know YET how a sustainable grassland functions" .
God help us, because polys on LANDLINE this week sure seem incapable of even understanding our world.

Pity Mc Guaran can't get his act together either - recognising rural people need more than holy huddles in the market corner to survive - farmers need planners !Peter Mcguran used the same "anti bureaucratic- antiscientific and planning argument" as O ' brien (perhaps he thinks the market wil keep farmers farming and science has nothing to say on sustainability - What he is saying is THE VERY same as saying "I am willing to cut my own constuiticies throat here" - tis true! either sustainability has substance of scientists or it does not - either the truth matters to rural producers or it does not )
The N ationals are falling into the same container hold of techno fix and market fundamentalism that Obrien clearly is happy in ( pity it doesn't solve a single sustaiability issue for the people committing suicide on the strength of such city centric simplicities )
