Open letter to Hon Ms Julie Bishop from Australian Greens Candidate
for Curtin, Dr George Crisp.
Martin Ferguson's recent decision to allow oil exploration in a proposed marine park off Margaret River is all the more astounding in the wake of BP's Horizon disaster and, in our own waters, the Montara spill
I am pleased to see that you have been pictured holding a "Save Our Marine Life" bumper sticker, which would suggest you are supportive of the conservation of our marine biodiversity.
If the Liberal Party were to be elected, would you make a commitment to protect these areas and ban deep water drilling in the Naturaliste Plateau and Mentelle up-welling areas?
If so, can you also confirm that you will not take the same path as Premier Barnett, who supported the preservation of the Underwood bushland while in Opposition, only to allow its use for development once in power?
