Australia’s Family First Party jumps on the anti wind power bandwagon

Better coordination urged in wind farm fight, ABC News, January 23, 2012   The Family First Party says a state-wide group is needed to tackle wind farm developments. A number of groups have been formed to oppose wind farms in various regions, including Keyneton near the Barossa Valley.

The party’s Rob Brokenshire says a more coordinated approach will be discussed at a forthcoming meeting. “The Government and those that are pro-wind farm at all costs want to brand them in a certain name but I won’t accept that,” he said… Mr Brokenshire says he is organising a meeting for early next month.

“One of the main items of the meeting is the concept of forming a state-wide group that looks at the big picture of the impact from wind farms on rural and regional people,” he said…. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2012-01-23/better-coordination-urged-in-wind-farm-fight/3787778
