| Description |
"If there is a theme or a thought that undermines this script it is a belief of mine that no land, no matter how we purchase it, State Advances Loan, Building Society, cash on the nail, whether it be an eighth of an acre or fifty thousand acres, can ever belong to us. If we can learn anything at all from history I hope it will be the realisation of the revolting obscenities that have been inflicted on our preconscious bushlands, and maybe this realisation will help combat the greed and avarice that is turning this country into a wasteland dedicated to profit and loss". |
