The National Farmers' Federation have passed a vote of no confidence in Senator Murray Watt and the Albanese Government.
This is unprecedented.

Mortality rates on ships are the lowest on record. Although, it is not the sole measure of performance aboard; a variety of indicators are collected daily. These show that most livestock are coping well in their environment and exhibiting normal behaviour patterns. #keepthesheep
A mass walk out on Senator Murray Watt from the Ag sector.
He hasn't listened to the agriculture community, so we will not listen to him.

Senator Murray Watt You know dam well that was a push poll from the RSPCA Australia .

Senator Murray Watt RSPCA Australia A sad day for animal welfare.
A sad day for the domestic feed market.
A sad day for diversified farming practices and risk management.
A sad day for an industry that has done all that was asked of it from government.
#keepthesheep #sackthegovernment
Today's announcement on the details of the ban of live sheep showed contempt from the Government for exporters, farmers & WA's regional communities.
ALEC stands behind farmers 100% and this is only the beginning of the fight.
