Barnaby Joyce was sworn in as Deputy Prime Minister only yesterday, but he and his party are wasting no time in trying to shred the Murray-Darling Basin Plan.

Nationals Senators have today voted against the implementation of the Murray Darling Basin Plan in full and on time.

Well, thanks for being here, everyone. Obviously overnight, we've seen news that the UNESCO World Heritage Committee has provided a draft recommendation that the Great Barrier Reef be listed as "in danger".

Well, this morning we've seen some news that Scott Morrison, in a really desperate ploy, has tried to blame Labor for his own gold standard incompetence in relation to mining approvals.

Minister for the Environment, Sussan Ley, will today use her national press club address to point the finger at Labor in an attempt to cover up the government’s incompetence.

The Morrison Government’ss ongoing failure to deliver on the Murray Darling Basin Plan is cheating South Australians.

No threats have been listed as Key Threatening Processes under federal environment laws in the current parliament, even though the 2019-20 national bushfire crisis killed or displaced more than 3 billion animals.

The Morrison Government’s belatedly-released threatened species strategy is inadequate.

Once again, the Morrison Government continues to falter regarding proper and responsible environmental policy, as exposed through their budget announcement on marine parks. 

Further revelations around land deals in Western Sydney by the Coalition Government again highlights the need for a national anti-corruption commission.
