The more I look at this series of coments of Garrett the nmore I reflect on the reason he gave for choosing the course of representing the Labor Party.

He could be more effective at shaping policy.

Steady, waiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit for it.

Oh, was that it.

Mmmmmm, must be a tougher nut than he thought.

How often have I heard those very words from people either as members or MP’s [where the pay and conditions ain’t bad either], or supporting Labor with their vote.

Nothing will change if you don’t act to change it and sadly supporting Labor first appears to make nothing change ever so slowly.

freaky…..everything about this pic look so real….

This looks so extreme and unbelievable that it must be a satire, a joke.  How horrifying for those of us who have seen it first hand to know how real it actually is. Well done Karl, you have captured the abandonment of Tasmania to devastation by those who should be doing something about the whole mess, for the sake of the whole world as well as the locals.  Talking about locals, I have been feeling nauseous and headachy for days now because of the burning that FEA is doing 500 metres north of my place and 1500 metres east of the Beaconsfield Primary School. This montage should be submitted to the ‘Weekend Australian’ newspaper to get nationwide coverage. Garrett is such a waste of space as an environment minister.

Great work Karl.

It is stunning how isolated from the real world Fed Labor is. They simply don’t get it, nor apparently, do they wish to get it. Try writing to them on anything to do with forestry/pulp mill/climate change - try writing to any minister at all - and in reply you get sent a whole pile of forest industry propaganda. This current crowd is beginning to make the previous bunch look positively enlightened. The firewalll Fed Labor has erected, to cut itself off from the people of Tasmania and the burning issues down here, pardon the pun, is bloody near impenetrable, and deliberate. 

We know why. The logging industry has them by the balls.

that’s fricken’ fantastic.

would you please consider making it a thumbnail that links to a larger image so it can be used for a viral email campaign?

it’s a fab piece of satire and commentary that needs a wider audience.

Rudd certainly bowed down easily to the coal industry, and the issue of the pulp mill has, as far as he is concerned, already been settled - oh how fortunate, it was by Mr Turnbull! So all blame can be passed to him.
However anyone who passes by on the other side of the street is also to blame. And there are plenty of those in Tasmania - too blind to want to see, or preferring to believe the fiction that the pulp mill will bring jobs.
