Govts have become the new face of organised crime. Where govt relationships with corporatism seems to be a growing trend of a corrupt system... The Murray Darling Basin Authority, govt environmental terrorism... Govt minister Bridget McKenzie buying votes.

Racist employers who don’t care about the workplace health and safety of the workforce. Sounds like an lnp or phon supporter. Can’t meet the contract. Low fat milk a problem. Has had to recall milk due to contamination. A risk profile is enough to discount their product

Maleny Dairies? Isn't this the same guy? Why not ask him about what is written on the barrel of this gun?

This is what happens to the poor cows on Dairy farms😢🐂💔

So their bigots and xenophobic and start crying milky tears when they can't push their xtian agenda. Glad they didn't get the contract and if it's true, that they getting more sales, then STFU and enjoy the publicity and profits.

Should Report that they didn’t get the Contract because they REFUSED to get Halal Certification which was a Condition of the Contract and the Owner is a Muslim Hater with a Gun in his front Yard opposite a School with “Bring on the Towel Heads ! Do your job! auspol

Love the fish symbol. Racist, peddling hate and religion.

Maleny Dairies owners are active supporters of PHON. I don’t support racist organisations and I am glad the Queensland government doesn’t.

Maleny Dairies got what it deserves, preach hate and see what happens !!

Hey ABC News, perhaps it would be informative if your story delved a little deeper into MDs political affinities and activities.

Seems like AnnastaciaMP is a shill for overseas corporation. Andani and now this bullshit. I feel she will feel the wrath next election. What disgraceful AustralianLabor leader she is. auspol

A photo speaks for itself “bring on the towel heads “ and in 2016 a man died at Maleny dairy and owner Ross Hooper was fined $145,000 for failure to comply with workplace safety ( see Gympie times ) so DebFrecklington would they have been your first choice auspol

Aussie Aussie Aussie. Buy local everyday. Go too farmers markets. Support aussie jobs

This is who the LNP are standing up for

So we should aussie companies before overseas

I'd like to know the names of the Chinese's products, so I can boycott them.

This is the problem our business is going overseas!!!

Stop the misinformation ABC. Maleny lost to local Queensland-based company Paul's because it couldn't supply the volume of milk needed for the hospitals. Paul's has been in Qld since the 1930s, employs 700 Qlders, and gets its milk from 141 Qld dairies.

did someone provide sales figures to you that you can verify?

AnnastaciaMP ?

I wonder if people realise what they are supporting, when they support Maleny Dairies. I love their milk. Their politics? No. I wouldnt give them a contract.

Australians are the best
