Bridget Archer asserts:
"Antibiotics, whether they are in veterinary use or in industry use in the salmon industry, are heavily regulated.
And they are regulated with regard to their public health use as well."
Quite evidently that is not the case when a commercial salmon hatchery could dump oxytetracycline into the River Derwent just upstream from the water intake of New Norfolk's town population.
Patricia Karvelas this morning:
" Ley's capitulation on net zero is the latest time she has shelved her personal views ...
Authenticity is a leader's greatest political asset, and Ley's moves to please the conservatives in her party are likely to do massive brand damage to her individually.
She's risking the one advantage she has — her reputation as a moderate woman who is in touch with "modern" Australia."
It was only a week ago that the moderates in the Liberal Party were flexing their muscle privately (and some publicly), threatening a divorce with the Nationals and to walk the plank if net zero was dumped. Neither threat ever materialised.
Alan Kohler this morning:
Senator Matt Canavan, the man now running Coalition policy, puts it like this: "The only way the government can meet net zero is by telling you what car to drive, how fast you can drive it, what food you can eat …"
Real men eat meat and drive noisy cars, quickly, and as Donald Trump urges, they also "drill baby drill".
Ukraine has announced that all illegals who have entered Crimea after the annexation will be expelled once the peninsula has been liberated. They are considered foreigner with no valid visas and will be expelled including an entry ban.
You can be sure that the Russian occupation takes that serious. Even before that announcement, real estate prices in Crimea have dropped by 50%. They will certainly drop even more after that. #Crimea #Ukraine
