- To the thousands of WA farmers who've taken to the streets of Perth today and to the thousands more who will be impacted by this ban, we stand with you. #keepthesheep nff.org.au/media-release/…
- Absolutely tremendous scenes unfolding in #Perth this morning as communities rally to #keepthesheep. Go well legends! 🚛🚜🛻 🧵 following here to show you what's happening...
- An unprecedented move today. “We turned our back to the Minister just like he turned his back on farmers,” @farmer_djFarmers walk out on Murray Watt's post budget ag speech over Government's plans to shut down the live sheep industry. The biggest allocation of new spending on agriculture in the budget was to shut down a whole agricultural industry. @NationalFarmers
00:00 - We’re baffled and disappointed by this mid-drought, pre-Christmas cut to @FoodbankAus. Farmers are important contributors to Foodbank, and 40% of people assisted are in the bush. Please rethink this @PaulFletcherMP, @ScottMorrisonMP. #auspol 9news.com.au/2018/11/12/00/…
- Cracking vibe growing at the #NationaAgRally. Are you with us here or online? Share what you 💚 about Aussie farming and let’s get the hashtag trending!
00:00 - 🚛 And they’re off! See you soon legends #NationalAgRally
00:00 - Shoppers see empty shelves and worry about a food shortage - this is not the case. The amount of food we’re growing hasn’t changed & it won’t. We’re asking consumers to #calmyourfarm because Aussie farmers have #gotyourback 🙌 🙏 Visit farmers.org.au for more.
00:00 - Thousands expected to rally again in WA at the live sheep inquiry. We are with you WA 🤜🤛 #keepthesheep 🧵Follow along here…
- #ausag peak policy-making forum has sent a powerful message to the @albomp govt today, passing a vote of no confidence. “We say to Govt: Stop with the poor policy & red tape. Stop taking away our markets, our water, our workers, our land.” @farmer_dj
- We are standing with our member @VicFarmers and thousands of farmers who have travelled to Melbourne to fight against levy hikes.
- Our CEO @tonymahar slams the live sheep ban on @abcnews today. “For the Minister for Agriculture to announce this decision on a Saturday with less than 12 hours notice is embarrassing and is treating industry with complete contempt.” #keepthesheep #keepfarmersfarming #auspol
00:00 - We fronted today’s hearing on the live sheep export ban to highlight how the process has been a farce and to shed light on the deeply flawed arguments supporting the ban. @charliepthomas nff.org.au/media-release/…
- When the sheep are gone, they're gone for good. And with them will go our Farmers, stock agents, shearers, truckies, schools and sporting clubs. Will you stand with us against the ban on sheep exports? Sign the petition: keepthesheep.com.au/petition #keepthesheep
