Perfect politics. The current threshold for FIRB review of a State owned foreign corporation investing in Australia is $1.00, so nothing will change. But it lets them be seen to be looking after the "battlers" and do a bit of cheer chasing with their redneck base.

does anyone like farmers

Spikey · 02-08-2012, 10:55 PM

it seems they ruin PEWS' dream of a free economy more than any other group.

in future i think i'll be calling PEWS a farmer to offend him

Australia consumes something like just 30% of what we produce

We need foreigners

Foreigners are good

It's the small countries (like us) that benefit from foreign investment, from free trade etc

Adelaide lost points on culture and environment but new infrastructure in the city catapulted it above Sydney.

so once we get some lightrail between the scg and the city we should be fine again. get onto it barry
