“Over-complication and over-regulation of nearly everything that we touch.”

That’s Charlie Blomfield. Ask any farmer in Australia and they’ll tell you the same.

Every new rule dreamt up by governments in Canberra and the capital cities lands on a farmer’s kitchen table.

More forms. More compliance. More fees.

Our farmers signed up to grow food, not to become full-time paperwork managers. Every hour spent on red tape is an hour not spent on the land.

And it’s rural families footing the bill.

Enough is enough. Stand with rural Australia.

COMPETITION TIME
What will they weigh?
These 13-14 month old lambs are off to Tamworth tomorrow to be killed on Friday. We have a cap and stubby cooler up for grabs for who guesses closest to the average dressed weight.

They did it tough after weaning through summer but since the rain at the start of April and getting shorn in May they have bolted ahead.
