FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda NSW Premier Barry O’Farrell will meet a small delegation of rangers angry about the government’s plans to allow shooting in national parks, after park workers rallied outside a community cabinet meeting in Bathurst.
About 50 rangers, environmentalists and locals congregated outside the public forum at the Mount Panorama Pit Complex on Monday, to express their concern over the government’s deal with Shooters Party MPs.
Mr O’Farrell last week announced the government would allow recreational hunters to cull feral animals in 79 national parks and reserves, in exchange for the Shooters backing its electricity privatisation bill.
Rangers have already announced they would refuse to help the government carry out the plan.
Following Monday’s meeting in Bathurst, expected to conclude about 1.30pm (AEST), three rangers will meet the premier to express their concerns.
“The concerns that the rangers have and the union has is for the safety of staff and park users, and also for native animals and the environment,” the Public Service Association (PSA) industrial officer Geo Papas told AAP.
“Having amateur hunters come to participate in ground shooting is not an effective tool for pest control.
“It will cause a lot of the target species to disperse, which will create more management problems for national parks and adjoining landholders.”
