  1. Australian farmers getting sold again out by Labor, No surprise there.

    This deal is absolutely pathetic and shouldn’t of ever been signed, It provides zero benefits to Australian farmers but gives the EU farmers a world of benefits with being able to market subsidized product into Australia.

    Our current beef Quota under this dreadful FTA is less then what Australia gave up 8 years ago which was 35,000t to make sure America stayed happy with EU negotiations of which America barely uses said 35,000t so we should be taking 20,000t of their allocation and [bringing ours up to 50,000t for beef exports](https://www.sheepcentral.com/red-meat-sector-and-nff-up-ante-on-eu-trade-outcome/#:~:text=Mr%20McDonald%20said%20as%20a%20likeminded%20partner%20with%20a%20strong%20value%20proposition%2C%20particularly%20in%20product%20quality%20and%20sustainability%2C%20it%20is%20reasonable%20that%20Australia%20secures%20at%20least%20a%20minimum%20of%2050%2C000%20tonnes%20carcase%20weight%20(cwt)%20of%20beef%20access%20in%20line%20with%20what%20the%20EU%20has%20offered%20our%20competitors) like what was actually wanted and while we are at it [lets push lamb/goat meat up to 67,000t](https://www.sheepcentral.com/red-meat-sector-and-nff-up-ante-on-eu-trade-outcome/#:~:text=%E2%80%9CA%20genuinely%20trade%20enhancing%20FTA%20must%20go%20a%20long%20way%20toward%20addressing%20this%20imbalance%20by%20securing%20at%20least%20a%20minimum%20of%2067%2C000%20tonnes).

    Not to mention New zealand has larger market access then Australia into the EU now, We are sitting at 55600t while NZ sits at 163769 tonnes.

  2. Her speech was so utterly sad, comes here for a trade deal and instead tries to promote Israel and the burger reich’s propaganda while they started the offensive war and bombed schoolgirls

    The west really needs to get leaders that will start looking after the people rather than how than compete about who will be more subservient to the interests of foreign empires
