Totally agree Graeme. Writing off the politicians for whatever reason is
giving away any chance of actually getting them to do anything.
I did a lengthy email on some of the things I've done in response to some of
the ones where people were wondering what could be done. The window of
opportunity I see at the moment does need a wave of action on a broad front and
I was hoping my missive might show some of the things that might be tried.
Being federal budget time, approaches to the Minister Hunt and maybe the
Treasurer, to gain substantial funding for a coordinated national programme to
control feral cats could be productive. And now is a better time than after
the NSW election for those politicians to be hearing calls for action.
Tony Palliser's response from the minister should be followed up with
correspondence urging high priority for this cause.
