Did anyone else watch this?

After taking him on their attempt to stop duck hunting the animal activist asks the hunter, 'did your experience today change your views in any way?' He replies, 'well, I've become interested in trying duck hunting!'

And indeed ... there are bigger issues ... so I'm out of here ...

Or repeal it (as opposed to the blinkered view of changing a law every time it's raised as draconian) and cut 'green tape'. So it's a simplification of the act I'm suggesting, surely good for the environment as it takes less paper to print :D Balances out in this case with less overall time as things become simplified :angel:

That's not 'self'-defeating at all, it's a tactical advantage and a victory for common-sense :cool:

You're out of here? OK, seeya, glad we agreed in the end.

"...Central to the Coalition's plan to cut $1 billion a year in red and green tape is the commitment to hold two parliamentary repeal days each year where inefficient, ineffective and unnecessary regulation embedded in legislation is repealed..." https://www.cuttingredtape.gov.au/pa...ep-reform-road
