Dairy workers claim underpayment hit by surprise counterclaim for rent

Just another example of what happens when Australia sells the farm to overseas investors, ( Who couldnt care less about our laws ) rather than keeping our best, prime agricultural land and business structures in Australian ownership.

 

Australasian Global Dairies has properties in Australia, New Zealand, America and Uraguay and while I dont know who really owns the Company ( how can us mere mortals ever know ) The two most senior management staff have Asian sounding names. Governments tell us that foreign investors only own perhaps 5-10% of Australias agricultural land, but what they fail to mention is that it is the best, most fertile, reliable land and water licences they own. The vast bulk of Australias agricultural land is semi arid, desert country. 

 

We are selling our best commercial buildings, utilities, houses, ports, companies and prime agricultural land and water to Asian investors for a pittance. Its the same as selling the family silver to pay the rent. No wonder the country is going broke and many of our own people are struggling to survive on less than the poverty line.

 

Stupid, Stupid politicians !!!
