Farmers frustration grows as government turns back ship
Tony Seabrook the President of the Pastoralists & Graziers Association of WA has called on the Prime Minister Anthony Albanese to find the time to sit down for a meeting.
The call for a meeting comes as live export returns to the headlines, as thousands of sheep are trapped on a ship that was due for international markets has since returned to Australia.
Seabrook told Oliver Peterson on 6PR’s Perth Live there needs to be better communication from the Prime Minister and his office.
“What you’ve got is the bureaucracy in Canberra, they wear none of the expenses for the shambolic way they’re doing this and the animals at the end of the day are the ones at the greatest risk,” Seabrook said.
“The feeling out in the bush is one of utter frustration and anger at a government that has their head in the sand.”
“Shambles would be the best way to describe this and almost every single part of it can be directed back to Canberra.”
