Funny, I'd have said the opposite given the behaviour of the National Party and 
their campaign to eradicate "woody weeds".

To be fair, I'd have said that the NSW Labour party has had a better track 
record of protecting habitat than the Qld Nationals or federal Liberals, but 
habitat west of the Great Divide has never been regarded as important compared 
to habitat on or east of the Divide.  It's all about visibility to the majority 
of the population IMO.

Regards,
Rob
