Andrew Bolt: Pumping out pulp fiction
NEWS.com.au – Aug 31, 2007
article-tools –> Andrew Bolt August 31 2007 12:00am GREEN dreamers and city celebrities get it all wrong. It’s a pulp mill that will create jobs not some engine of demonic destruction Andrew Bolt writes. Has anyone bothered to ask Tasmanians if they really want to be "saved" by mainland "celebrities"?But what would Tasmanians know about their own island right? That’s why more than 100 kinda-famous people from nowhere near Tasmania have signed a petition to stop the island from building itself a $2 billion pulp mill in the Tamar Valley. Led by millionaire Sydney businessman Geoffrey Cousins they are campaigning against another mainlander Environment Minister Malcolm Turnbull warning that if he doesn’t stop this satanic mill he could lose his Sydney seat. Stop Tasmania’s mill demand playwright David Williamson from the Sunshine Coast; tennis star John Newcombe from Sydney; actor Rachel Ward from near Coffs Harbor; radio host Wendy Harmer from Sydney; Fairfax executive Mark Burrows from Sydney; TV chef Kylie Kwong from Sydney; film director Phillip Noyce from Hollywood; A-list ex-headmistress Rowena Danziger from Sydney and arts critic Leo Schofield from Sydney. Hear them cry from their concrete haunts: Stop those Tasmanians from building their forest-murdering planet-choking water-fouling wine-tainting pulp mill in the Tamar Valley that Garden of Eden or face ruin by people who live nowhere near the place. That’s quite some bullying and by people who have little on their side but more cash and cachet than the average voter.
