Opal Hunters Shut Down By Government! | Outback Opal Hunters 

Woke leftover bureaucrats from well off family background. They want to rule like Big Communist Leaders, some animals are more equal. They take 1984 as a manual. They don't want to be questioned, because they cannot defend themselves logically, Puppets of old forces.

Agreed

Think they've already proved votes doesn't matter after changing rules/laws and literally on camera rigging it .... the only way it's going to stop is after everyone's balls drop and stand up against them

Who will this suit? It's Mindarie all over again

You mean to suit the ones lining their pockets

to suit their paymasters, BlackRock

Lol these people living on welfare whilst digging .

What do you expect failed lawyers to know. Professional liars.

Agree, clearly no thought was put into this decision

Go ahead, you do all the work. Government just wants the goodies and they might pat you on the head for 'giving' it to them. Aren't they nice? NOT!!

I didn't vote for them

ya and then you would be locked up for years for illegal mining

Go broke than

They the Dept have been slowly going through the process of re-issuing new titles, its a complicated process and takes time. However the result is that more than 50% of the claims have not been renewed, the owners/miners have decided its just to difficult and walked away. So a government bureaucrat who is no doubt on $250k plus a year has destroyed the Lightning Ridge Opal mining Industry, and no one gives a stuff, no one is sacked, she is still collecting her tax payer funded salary. The NSW Govt has announced a Inquiry to be conducted by a former Attorney General for NSW, he put out a discussion paper in late Dec 2022, and invited public submissions which has now closed, the timeline is that Inquirey will hand down its finding to the NSW Govt in July, for the Govt to consider. But its looking very likely that the whole Industry will be facing higher charges and stricter regulation, thats my reading of it, its an opinion and you know opinions are like A / holes, everyone has one. In other words Opal Mining in NSW may be facing implosion as an industry, strangled by Govt Red Tape and a bureaucracy who cannot stand individuals who do not conform to societal norms.

wouldnt that be gd...?

Tax is actually illegal. You cañ get out of paying that in the USA as IRS defunct

The misfits you mean ? Yes had very similar thoughts myself, have risked my life digging people like them out of a collapsed mine on many occasions. But I guess they have to have a show, and the sugar coated rubbish they were valuing at $180k, and these clowns make a show I guess.

​@@dalane5196😅😂😅

I have no more because I lost them

And they were tiny

We are a small Industry, yes they would. At the same time, with a single stroke of the pen, they have left approx 400 peoples residents, their homes untitled and on very unsecured tenure. Nobody in Govt cares much, small remote country community, as far they are concerned we are all pretty much vermin anyway, expendable vermin at that.

I can’t understand her either
