No where else in the world do you have a daily risk of poisoning your pets and livestock.
I shouldn't have to muzzle my dog from poison or the after effects period.

I'm happy to mitigate my own risks, and suck it up when I don't, when the rural economy and iconic species need a leg up.

So you're a sheep?

You probably don't live in an area like I do. 10 different catchments can get the green rain at any one time but it all eventually goes past my and many others houses and onto our beach.

It is a constant daily threat.

Im 70 for fucks sake. I didn't just come down yesterday. I make my own decisions based on my own experience and observations. Like farming 3000 acres on the east coast for 20 years when there were 350 farms in NZ with TB, including our own. Like trapping and hunting for a living. Deer capture and deer farming. Volunteer conservation. Spending a lifetime in the trees. Don't you bloody call me a sheep.

Hit him over the head with your walking stick! And keep doing it until he stops wriggling.

At 50, you have no right to be content. Get to work for another 20 years.

Dodged a few explosions and bullets in 20 yrs of service to this country.

Pretty sure I have some rights.
