.mattjcan says it is “a great result” the government will not appeal the Federal Court’s ruling which declared the Gillard Labor government’s live export ban illegal, a knee-jerk reaction he said left Australian taxpayers with a $600million bill.

The government will not appeal the Federal Court's ruling which declared the former Gillard government's live export ban illegal. Labor introduced the blanket ban on live exports in 2011 after an ABC report showed the mistreatment of Australian cattle in some Indonesian abattoirs. Nationals Senator Matt Canavan told Sky News it was “a great result” and “a vindication of what the hard working men and women do in our live cattle industry”.

“It doesn’t just involve those who were hurt directly through the shutting down of cattle sales, but people who drive trucks were put out of work, people who run helicopter mustering operations, fencing contractors, feed suppliers,” he said. A 300-strong class action is seeking an estimated $600 million in compensation for lost income due to the ban.

Business owners desperate for govt to unveil extension of JobKeeper | Sky News AustraliaBusiness owners are feeling a sense of relief that JobKeeper will be extended for another six months, especially those in the tourism sector which has been bleeding billions of dollars each month. \n\nOperators warned if JobKeeper wasn’t extended past September, tens of thousands of jobs in the sector would be lost. \n\nCruise company owner Jim Patterson said his business took a 70 per cent hit since January. \n\n“In January with the fires and smoke, we lost a massive amount of turnover, and then February picked up a little, March was looking promising, and then COVID stopped it in its tracks,” he told Sky News. \n\nThe federal government will today unveil details of its expanded JobKeeper and JobSeeker support schemes, which will be extended beyond their original September end date. \n\nPrime Minister Scott Morrison and Treasurer Josh Frydenberg will announce an extension to both payments but at a reduced level. \n\nUnder the plan, the schemes would be extended to March with a two-tier payment system introduced to reflect the incomes of casual and part-time staff. \n\nImage: Getty I am on jobseeker and prepared myself financially for it to return to the pre pandemic amount. This is great news. 👍
