Greens show their true colours

The failure of the Australian Greens to support a motion protecting bird sanctuaries in the Gippsland area has unveiled the hypocrisy of the so called ‘environmental’ party.

In attempting to stand up for Australian obligations protecting migratory birds, Federal DLP Senator John Madigan could not count on one iota of support from the Greens.

Is anyone really surprised by this? Not us. The Greens insist on "protection" of nature and environment when it suits their agenda, but otherwise nature is expendable. The Greens speak with forked tongues. 

"I was shocked at their pure hypocrisy and I am sure many Green voters will share my surprise," he said.
