[QUOTE]Greens senator Scott Ludlam has used his last speech in the Senate before the Western Australian upper house byelection to deliver a stinging rebuke to the Abbott government.

Ludlam’s address, sardonic at times, straight at others, and delivered to the senate at 10.08pm on Monday in a near empty house, lasted only seven minutes but covered a broad range of policy areas.

Ludlam invited prime minister Abbott to visit Western Australia. Upon arrival, Ludlam advised: “Understand that you are now closer to Denpasar than to Western Sydney, in a state where an entire generation has been priced out of affordable housing.

“Recognise that you are standing in a place where the drought never ended, where climate change from land clearing and fossil fuel combustion is a lived reality that is already costing jobs, property and lives.”

Ludlam continued: “Mr Prime Minister, at your next press conference we invite you to leave your excruciatingly boring three-word slogans at home. If your image of Western Australia is of some caricatured redneck backwater that is enjoying the murderous horror unfolding on Manus Island, you are reading us wrong.

“Every time you refer to us as the ‘mining state’ as though the western third of our ancient continent is just Gina Rinehart’s inheritance to be chopped, benched and blasted, you are reading us wrong.”[/QUOTE]

Just wish this speech got more recognition because it's something people need to see

Has anyone seen that NBN parody site? You enter your address and it makes jokes, and talks shit about Abbott.
Of course the real joke is that we shouldn't be expecting anything from the new "NBN" that the previous governments plan was replaced with.

Ludlam sounds like he speaks for the rest of the country in certain subjects, but most of them concern the country as a whole so to speak.

I think the Greens should fix their own policies before calling out other parties, but some of what they have to say was true and needed to be said. Seriously though some of their policies are so ridiculous it's laughable.

I can think of a single positive thing he's done since becoming Prime Minister. He didn't win the election, Labour lost it.

Just fix our internet, wanker

I agree with the Greens on somethings but their policies are a wreck, they'd be a good party if they sat down and did a good spring clean of their shit and exercise the classic saying "practice what you preach"
