<BR /><DIV>
Ralph has been one of the foremost critics of the Brack's government's management of public land and a tremendous supporter of the Mountain Cattlemen.  </DIV>
<BR /><DIV>
Knowing Ralph this tragedy will make him all the more determined to bring the government to account. </DIV>
<BR /><DIV>
As I mentioned in a previous post it was only last week that Victorians were advised by Emergency Services Commissioner, Bruce Esplin, to get used to wildfire.  Esplin downplayed the disaster of this summer and talked up the capacity of the bush to regenerate.</DIV>
<BR /><DIV>
Perhaps he'd like to visit Licola this week and deliver the same spiel to the locals, including Ralph Barraclough. </DIV>

There's not going to be a lot of regeneration around Licola any time soon.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/46BFFAF1-CCC6-4DBA-9731-7D10D17ED3F5/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
