Rob Garbutt transports us through the beautiful and surprising sounds of the rivers of NE NSW with his contribution to the Speaking With the River – NRCG Exhibition David Shoebridge is the chair of the NSW Parliamentary Committee on Public Accountability. He has been working hard to expose the Berejiklian Government's shameless pork barrelling and he uncovered the recent scandalous corruption of the Bushfire Recovery Fund. He spoke to Sean O'Shannessy to explain the depths of the scam. Eve Sinton from Fossil Fool Bulletin speaks to Sean about: AGL's proposed gas import terminal at Crib Point has drawn a lot of flack at an environmental assessment hearing, and is strongly opposed by the local community. The gas industry, while being showered with big dollars by the government aiming for a 'gas-fired'economic recovery, has actually cut its workforce by 10%.
