everyone would be aware that a bill to end live exports was passed in the senate the other day... from there it went to the HOR where it lost by 2 votes www.smh.com.au/politics/federal/liberal-mps-sussan-ley-and-sarah-henderson-vote-against-live-export-ban-bill-20180910-p502wu.htmlThey threatened to cross the floor to stop the trade they felt was so heinous. But when it came to a vote on Monday, Liberal MPs Sussan Ley and Sarah Henderson staged a change of heart and used their deciding votes to prevent a debate on a ban on the live animal export trade. “Sussan Ley and Sarah Henderson sponsored a bill to phase-out the live sheep export trade and made passionate speeches in support of their proposal," Mr Fitzgibbon said. "But today they put their own political careers ahead of their policy convictions. more politicians who say one thing but do the opposite when it comes to the crunch |

www.smh.com.au/politics/federal/agriculture-minister-orders-urgent-overhaul-of-own-department-s-handling-of-live-export-trade-20181031-p50d0d.htmlThe report, obtained exclusively by Fairfax Media, linked the department's failure to regulate the sector to budget cuts made by the former Abbott government. In 2013, the then agriculture minister Barnaby Joyce slashed regulations and bodies dealing with animal welfare compliance as part of $25 million in cuts. This included abandoning the Australian Animal Welfare Strategy in December 2013, as well as the 21-person animal welfare branch which policed it. A committee created by the Gillard government in 2011 to govern and oversee a national animal welfare strategy was also cut. just two words....... Barnaby Joyce
