Tas Inquirer asked Tassal about their now *increasing* use of explosives & whether there’s an end date for use of these devices.

‘Tassal, which is owned by Canadian multinational Cooke Aquaculture, did not respond.’

Of course not, they feel no responsibility to this place or its people.

Since the start of 2016, the three #salmon companies operating in #Tasmanian marine areas - Huon Aquaculture, Tassal and Petuna - have deployed 150,488 underwater explosives against seals in their fish farms. #politas

#OnThisDay 20 September 1815 Sir Richard Dry was born in Launceston, Van Diemen's Land. He served as the 7th Premier of Tasmania from 1866 to 1869. #OTD #history #politas #taspol #taspolitics #vandiemensland #vdl #politics

'Abetz, who now oversees the weakest budget in the federation, was a member of the Turnbull government when it announced the GST deal.'

In case anyone wants to know how it's going down here, we've got Treasurer Eric Abetz bullying a teenager for wearing a T-shirt. And the Premier thinks that's cool and normal behaviour.

It was my privilege to bring to parliament one of @changeaus.bsky.social's largest ever Aus petitions, calling on the Gov to end live animal exports. Grass roots action is powerful, it got us the live sheep export ban and it is what will put an end to cruel live animal exports. #auspol #politas

Scandalous that big oil companies are pocketing $700k a minute profit while some families are going without meals & pensioners are forced to choose between filling the car or a prescription. Australians aren’t fooled by the economic jargon trying to hide price gouging #auspol #politas

Today I received a petition signed by more than 470,000 people calling for a ban on all live animal exports. An industry built on cruelty has no place in a modern society. The fact that this government continues to permit it speaks volumes. #auspol #politas #banliveexport @changeaus.bsky.social
