  • Great video. Speaking the same sad story which happening around the globe. But this what happens in Tasmania seems to be one of the worst cases.

    What about indigenous tasmanian people and their rights? Is there some existing?

    Thankyou for your concern. There are Indigneous Tasmania's - and they do have many rights now, although they have endured a long history of dispossession.

  • It took me a while before I could watch this whole video, so powerful and so sad,so appalling were some of the tragic pictures but this video is one of the driving forces behind my decision to join the protests even though I am disabled. I will fight back for my health so I can also make a difference and join the fight against this disgusting destruction

  • An excellent display on how the Labor Liberal parties of Tasmania (with there best Buddy Gunns Ltd) work on short term financial and electoral goals, rather than think for their kids.

    At least when im in my coffin I can say to myself at least I tried to save for my children. They cant and they rot in pain.

  • Flanagan has written an article about this travesty. It's found at the tamar pulp mill site.

    Worth a read. Thank you for posting this excellent video. The actions of this Govt make me ashamed to be Tasmanian.

  • Très fort et très touchant !

    L'union des hommes fait la force contre la bètise d'une part de l'humanité ! Bravo !

  • Great video!
