Roma meeting

Hi everyone, just wanted to shout out a big thanks to everyone who attended the meeting in Roma last Friday to hear the address from Professor Bob Carter. It was a huge success and a big thanks also to Ron and Cate for their efforts getting all this together. By my reckoning there were close to 200 people in the hall which was amazing considering that there was a lot else on in the town that night. Earlier in the day I attended the Roma Campdraft and met up with Sarah Ferguson from 4 Corners, they also covered the meeting later that night. On the following day we took them to Moonrocks here in St George where Sarah had an opportunity to hear concerns raised by local farmers in relations to the possible ramifications for them if the Federal Government were to get their way with the introduction of an Emissions Trading Scheme. Later on Saturday the 4 Corners crew accompanied me to the Riversands Winery Jazz and Boots afternoon where we listened to some great music and spent an enyoyable afternoon in the sun. On Sunday Sarah conducted an extensive interview with me in my office here in St George. The feedback I recieved from the ABC crew was very positive, they believe as I do, that sentement in the bush is extremely strong and that the tide has turned on this issue, they also believe that finally the message is now getting through to people in the cities. Their story is scheduled to air on the ABC on November the 9th and hopefully we'll get a good run. Thanks again to everyone for your support, I'm doing everything I can down in Canberra but we need your help too, I'd urge everyone to jump online when you can and hit the blog sites, write letters to your local newspapers and to call talkback radio when you get a chance. We are all in this together and if we stick together we stand a good chance of winning the final battle.....cheers, Barnaby

Dr Caroline-

Unfortunately Barnaby (good man that he is -is in the straight jacket and is in "go along to get along "mode as perscribed by the LNP control freaks.Barnaby has 5 full time staff and for more than a year now all have been too busy to bother with our little site here.

I had unlimited admiration for him back when Bob Carter came to Roma and he alone proclaimed that Climate Change was rubbish out of the wholw Fed Parliament. We both trekked to Cooma on day to see Peter Spencer on day 28 of his hunger strike- a very selfless act of support for the shadow Finance minister at the time.

Barnaby knows better than most about the Property Rights matters that his own PM encouraged and imo the smartest strategy would be to come out and admit that things weren't done right -make amends and shut the whole Kyoto CC,AGW fraudulent industry down. The coalition would win in a landslide if this were to be policy. 85% was the figure quoted far and wide on the radio.
