Nationals Boycott of Joint Party Room a Charade
8 September, 2020 Nationals Boycott of Joint Party Room a Charade The NSW Nationals threat to go to the crossbench over the Koala SEPP guidelines and new tree protection laws is more smoke and mirrors led by Clarence MP Chris Gulaptis and has now engulfed the whole party in a political charade, orchestrated by the Nationals leader John Barilaro. “On one hand we have the Premier waxing lyrical about how great it is to be a “progressive green tory,” whilst the Nationals pretend to advocate for coastal bush seats,” Robert Borsak, leader of the Shooters Fishers and Farmers Party said. National party ministers, Melinda Pavey, Adam Marshall and John Barilaro rubber-stamped the Koala SEPP and snuck it through during the catastrophic Black Summer bushfires. For the Nationals to pretend they weren’t complicit in its implementation is a lie to the people they allegedly represent. “How can anyone in the bush take the Nationals seriously when they have to beg for their supper from a Liberal elite that takes them and their electorates for granted,” Mr Borsak said. “If the Nationals want to be taken seriously Mr Barilaro should resign his position as Deputy Premier, quit his portfolios and lead all the Nationals to the crossbench. “Whatever happened to the boast that the Nationals are “at the Cabinet table” and “have their hand on the cheque book”, if this were true their current charade would not be necessary,” said Mr Borsak. The Koala SEPP grossly infringes on the freedom of our farmers and property owners and does so using flawed science. -

The Deputy Speaker (The Hon. Thomas George) took the chair at 12.00. The Deputy Speaker read the Prayer and acknowledgement of country Visitors VISITORS The DEPUTY SPEAKER: I extend a warm welcome to my guests Uday Huja, Jason Alcock, Dany Karam, Christopher Smith and Buddika Gunawardana, who are chefs from The Star visiting the Parliament today. [Notices of motions given.] Private Members' Statements TRIBUTE TO SUPERINTENDENT JULIAN GRIFFITHS Ms ELENI PETINOS (Miranda) (12:13): I rise to discuss and farewell the outgoing commander from the Sutherland Shire Police Area Command, Superintendent Julian Griffiths. Our local media has publicised that Superintendent Griffiths has been moved from the Sutherland Shire Police Area Command into the St George Police Area Command. Those of us who have had the opportunity to work with the superintendent, and to know him well, are going to miss him dearly. Media reports have not captured that Superintendent Griffiths is a capable and competent commander who has always been dedicated to serving the local community. He has done that in his capacity as a superintendent of both the Sutherland Shire Local Area Command and the merged Sutherland Shire Police Area Command over the past six years. I was recently told a story about Superintendent Griffiths which highlights the depth of his care and the lengths that he has gone to for the community. It is about the recent fires in the western part of the shire, in Menai, Alfords Point and Barden Ridge. -
