Last night I read the Lock Out document presented on this forum by the “Australian Climbing Association (Vic) Inc.”. I wrote some comments and posted them on their site. Probably a waste of time.

My major concern is that having Liberal Democrat politicians representing rock climbers and current problems in the Gariwerd/Grampians will almost certainly not reflect well on the climbing community.

The Liberal Democrats have a far right agenda and a history of anti-green, sexist pronouncements and policies as well as being climate change sceptics. If that’s who you want to represent climbing in parliament, fair enough, but as a rock climber of 50 years standing I would rather give up climbing entirely than side with such a sorry bunch of wannabes.
