Malcolm’s Official Speeches in Parliament

Farmers: The best protectors of the environment

, , ,

Farmers have helped build this country but are now being hindered from farming the land by unnatural bureaucracy and unnatural levels of ignorance.

They are in the firing line from the United Nations for being one of the causes of “climate change” and by inner city greens from everything to fabricated animal cruelty claims and causing bushfires.

Our farms are being deprived of water by terrible government regulation.

What happens to a property in a drought once it is deprived of water? It turns into a wasteland with a corresponding loss of habitat for native Australian animals.

Farms are a part of the environment and not separate from it. The Murray Darling Basin plan is devastating the environment by depriving water to farms.

How the Lima Declaration devastates Australian Industries

,

Australia became a signatory to the Lima Declaration in 1975, at the Second General Conference of the United Nations Industrial Development Organisation (UNIDO), held in Lima.

Australia committed to adopting trade measures designed to ensure increased exports from developing countries to developed countries, including to Australia.

These measures have been devastating to Australian industry, agriculture, and the Australian economy in general.

A global approach has not been good for Australian interests when Australian interests must come first.

The major parties have let down the Australian public in many ways. This is just another example of a sell out by the government of the interests of Australians. I support the Amendments as moved by Senator Patrick that would maintain the protections as achieved by the current innovation patent system and am opposed to the removal of this innovation patent system.

Big stick legislation: A big Government failure

,

Why has the government introduced their ‘big stick’ legislation to try and force the energy retailers to offer cheaper prices? Government climate regulation has wrecked the energy market and now the government think they can fix the problem with more climate regulations.

The solution to cheaper power prices is competitive federalism. Remove all climate regulations and let the energy market compete for customers on cheaper prices. The State/s that support the free market will be rewarded with businesses flooding to their States to invest.

I grit my teeth because I have to support this bill to close the exploitation which the Lib/Lab parties have design into their duopoly energy policy.
