  1. Electrical wires have no impact on agriculture and farming. I have farms around me that run the mains across their properties from Lidell and Bayswater. Cattle just graze under the towers and use em for a bit of shade. I'm sure the farmers have been well compensated.

  2.  @Diponty  The horse needed shade in the shade of a storm?

  3. Has Rowan ever left the city? Because he seems to think the countryside is free range. It's not. The country is just a bunch of peoples properties. They are all separated by individual boundaries and a Highway is usually a boundary. You drive on the highway, you can go in a straight line. It's a fence left of you and a fence right of you, and someone owns that land and you will be trespassing if you go upon it. Even when there is no farms and no sign of anything in a landscape, someone still usually owns that land. Billionaires buy huge chunks of land in Australia and just wait for the right time to utilise the resources at their leisure. Also, it's not like I could take the family camping at Pine Gap. I would need my passport, and a security clearance and that is US soil apparently. You can only freely attend government land, that is open to the public. Towns, Parks, lakes, rivers, highways, and non private land. That's where you are kind of free. At least half of Australia is off limits. Australia is more limited than you think.

  4. Conservatism is fear of innovation and change if you want to go by its actual definition.

  5. Winning Fadden changed nothing. Fadden is a long held coalition seat.

  6.  @DontgnawoffmyMomsClitoris  No just pointing out the desperation to try and make Fadden seem like it was some win. It would have been a win if it wasn't a safe LNP seat for decades, but it is. It's kind of like how I said here three years ago, I said Labor will govern federally and all of mainland Australia by 2023. I knew that would be a victory. I also said 'mainland Australia', because I knew Tassie would reinstate the LNP. Fadden is Tassie. We know Fadden and Tassie are pro LNP. Why don't Skynews act like it.

  7.  @oldnutta7611  In Europe there are heaps of crop fields with turbines encompassed within them. It's not a problem. Most modern farming equipment has Smart Control where you can program the towers into their map and they will not interfere with each other. For the more old fashioned methods, you have humans operating and labouring so it's all good. What's the problem?

  8.  @bigboy9693  Well you must build the infrastructure first. But then it's all good.

  9.  @oldnutta7611  Most of the canola comes from WA. How would turbines disrupt canola fields?

  10.  @tootellustraight  The Hunter is historically Labor and is Labor now. My whole family is from the hunter and they all vote Labor. What are you even talking about. Labor has always been preferred in what was traditionally a working class region
