GREEN REVOLUTION, REVOLUTION THINK!

WITH SUSTAINABLE FOREST INDUSTRY$$$ MONEY DOES GROW ON TREES.

$800m forest policy SUSTAINABLE: ALP

Federal ALP''s Leader Mark Latham's forest policy with a promise to protect Tasmania's old growth forests and rainforest is a revolution. REVOLUTION THINK?

The package, announced by Mr Latham in Hobart, includes $800 million to increase new job opportunities and help put the forest industry on a more sustainable basis.

Who said money doesn't grow on trees as long as you cooperate with the planet many resources are still untapped and those who suffer from doing things the same old way have to move 'outside the lodge' and start using their 'log' in order to survive.

Mr Latham says if Labor is elected it will appoint a panel of experts to assess Tasmania's high conservation forests, including the Tarkine and the Styx to determine whether they need protecting

The panel will report by September next year and until then some relief, there will be an immediate end to clearing of native vegetation, and no extension of any existing logging operations.

In a meeting with timber workers and the industry, Mr Latham said he was committed to a sustainable forest industry, promising an $800 million fund to look at new job opportunities.

"We're serious about conservation and the protection intent of the policy, but we're also serious about the $800 million investment to preserve the jobs," he said.

Mr Latham promising his policy will have no net affect on employment in the industry.

"No, this is not buying out jobs to put people on long-term welfare," he said.

"This is upgrading of skills and technology, modernising an industry that obviously needs greater investment in technology and skills to survive."

Mr Latham says the policy unveiled yesterday will not affect the Regional Forest Agreements in the rest of Australia.

GREENS NOT GREED: BOB BROWN

SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITY NETWORKS

Senator Bob Brown has defended the Greens' policies from Scumbo, [war criminal], John  Howard's diversionary attack!

The federal Coalition has stepped up its attack on the Australian Greens.

With the Greens improving in the opinion polls, the Coalition has accused Senator Brown of planning to legalise ecstasy.

But one wonders what drugs Scumbo's on these days?

Senator Brown says his policy of harm minimisation would improve the welfare of drug users.

"That policy means 'let's look at alternatives', instead of being hard-lined and narrow-minded like the Prime Minister is," he said.

Liberal policies unlike the minor parties read like a bad dream in a third world country.

The real Howard agenda is exposed

People who are tempted to vote for the neo-Liberals simply on the basis of their concern for the economy, need to understand that they need the truth about the economy first and they're not going to get it off Scumbo!

Based on Scumbos record the record's stuck on Howard's past behaviour quoting Howard's exact words.

Howard: "If you compromise on something that is fundamental you don't win improved behaviour, from people who have misbehaved in the past"

Based on Howard's past behaviour;

1. Children over-board
2. Detaining children
3. Indefinite detention of asylum seekers
4. Draconian Laws
5. Propaganda
6. Undermining Medicare
7. Illegal and degrading war on Iraq
8. Australia's Free Trade, [Raid], Agreement with the USA
9. Sacrificing citizens and torturing "Resistance in Iraq".
10. Keeping the Australian population under the iron fist of "Fear"


JUST TO NAME A FEW!

BESIDES THE MASSIVE SPENDING ON MILITARY HARDWARE, US ARMY BASES COMING TO A TOWN NEAR YOU, AND LACK OF REMORSE FOR PAST CRIMINAL BEHAVIOUR IN THE WAR ON IRAQ MEANS YOU DON'T VOTE FOR SCUMBO HOWARD OR HIS COALITION!

The neo-Liberals 'imploded' only last week with former Liberal stalwart John Valder launching a campaign against Scumbo Howard's lies and that's why half his ex-staffers are against him with numerous ex public servants having joined the Greens.

The record's stuck, the record's stuck, the record's stuck, so many times the record sticks!
