[Anyone But Nats @anyonebutnats]

Great turnout for Anyone but Nats Coonabarabran Community Forum this afternoon.

Still no sign of Barwon Nat. Still in Witness protection. How do you meet the Barwon Nat. Will ask Mick from Luka Group how to access him. Maybe a donation is required.

[Jeremy Buckingham @BuckinghamJN]

I've written to the registrar referring a claim made by Nationals MP Michael Johnsen that the Land and Environment Court's decision to block Rocky Hill coal mine "smacks of judicial activism" for investigation of contempt of court.

Asked three times if she was still committed to the Menindee Lakes Project (given the Royal Commission findings) the Premier wouldn’t directly answer, saying it’s a complex system #nswpol @10NewsFirstSyd @10Daily

Albury NSW has set a new heat record this afternoon reaching 45.3 which beats the previous hottest day of 44.8 °C set on 07 Feb 2009

[Graham Creed @Creedyinclouds]

Yesterday Broken Hill broke the January heat record of 45.3 by reaching 45.4, today it broke the all time heat record reaching 46.3 with the previous 45.5 set in 2017 . The station has been open since 1947

[Bureau of Meteorology, New South Wales @BOM_NSW]

Broken Hill, White Cliffs, Wilcannia, Ivanhoe, Albury and Narrandera have all broken their all time maximum temp records today. While Deniliquin, Yanco and Condobolin have set new records for the month January. Full #NSW details: https://t.co/AIwC8xjgsO #Heatwave

[Penny Sharpe @PennySharpemlc]

4 questions Berejiklian & Barilaro have to answer on the #murraydarling #menindee 1/4 Why did the Libs-Nats pursue changes to water rules that reduced river flows and allowed the over-extraction of water by lobbyist irrigators who were National Party donors? #nswpol

People who still argue that climate change isn't happening need to explain away this chart. https://t.co/gfbNr2SdrM via @smh

[💧Bee - Difficult 🐝🌿❤ @BelindaJones68]

I've noticed that @M_McCormackMP @D_LittleproudMP @senbmckenzie @Barnaby_Joyce Niall Blair and even Member for Parkes @MarkCoultonMP have not said a fucking word about Menindee fish kill.

Could that be bcuz it was DELIBERATE 'decommissioning'? They planned it?

[Mikearoo @mpbowers]

Barkandji elder Badger Bates called on the Prime Minister Scott Morrison to come and see what has happened to the Darling River at Menindee “The Barka is our mother, our lifeblood and our responsibility to manage for future generations” @GuardianAus #auspol

[Mikearoo @mpbowers]

The stench of rotting fish at Menindee is eyewatering, close up it makes you retch, it gets into your cloths and you cant seem to get rid of it @GuardianAus #fishkill #Menindee

[Country Greens @CountryGreens]

@LockTheGate has redoubled calls for a Special Commission of Inquiry into mining in NSW after Hunter whistleblower allegations. This is a no-brainer. Let's make it happen in 2019! #nswvotes #nswpol #time2choose https://t.co/l9NVnN7K0y

[Jeremy Buckingham @BuckinghamJN]

Congratulations to the local community who have for years fought hard against this coal mine proposal. There is no place for new coal mines or csg in NSW https://t.co/ZC4IulhTpf

[Country Greens @CountryGreens]

We're just kicking off at the Anyone But Nats for Regional NSW forum at Werris Creek. A great turn out and a diverse group of people united in wanting a better future for the local community #nswpol #putthenatslast

[Tony Windsor @TonyHWindsor]

Can’t beleive the farm lobby welcomes NDIS money to fund bogus future fund for farmers ....being conned again . Morrison knows the next election is over so delivers non funded programs that sound good to the ill informed .
