Call to buy out water hoarders to save the Murray. Hold on, haven't we heard this before?
According to News.com.au yest'dee
Sounds familar doesn't it? Too right it does.
Peter Beatie (while Queensland Premier) almost begged the Howard Government to partner his state in a buyout of Cubbie, Ballandool and Clyde Stations to return water to the river system.
Jackboot Johnnie said no to Cubbie in 2002 and rejected the other two in 2006.
Now the entire country is paying for his sheer bl**dy mindedness.
The little dictator didn't deserve a gong after the country sacked him - he deserved a rope necktie!
