At last a leader leading, and making decisions on solid facts. "A pesky persistent" Senator - viva democracy. Let's bombard Senator Xenophen and Mr Wilkie with support. Maintain the rage and continue to try to get the message through to Julia! Where, by the way, does Malcolm Turnbull (not to mention Tony) stand on this issue?

Thank you so much Senator Nick Xenophon for standing up the animals, for the truth, for morals, for ethics, for conscience, for compassion.  Thank you for not losing your humanity. So sad to see so many politicians no longer have their humanity. Please do not give up on banning the live export trade there are so many people who want this. There was a poll the other day and 92% voted to have the live export trade banned.

I applaude you Senator Xenophon. Not many other politicians have the guts to go against the "money, money, all that matters is money!" political majority. Those animals need you, please don't give up!
