The national definition of "free range" will require that hens have "meaningful and regular" access to the outdoors, and that the density of chickens outdoors must be no more than one hen per square metre (10,000 hens per hectare).
That seems pretty good to me

I mean apart from the manufacturing of animals for our consumption

Thats nowhere near enough space for a chicken to scratch around in, and you can bet that the definition of "meaningful access" is going to be abused.
Yeah one square meter is gently caress all space :/

Isn't this actually the slightly more humane thing to do if you have way too many chickens in the one place? Or they peck each other to death?

Obviously the solution should be to stop farming them or at least drastically decrease their density, but lol capitalism and all that.
There is nothing humane about debeaking

I would like to think that this tax drama will lead to real reform.

Sadly phonehacking in the UK makes me pessimistic.
The 2008 financial crash led to one single person serving time, and nothing changed

I was listening to a "please give blood" plea on the radio this morning, and a thought occurred to me - why not (as long as it is medically ok) make Centrelink conditional on being a blood donor?

You could set up donation centers inside Centrelink offices and make it part of the regular appointment. If you're unemployed you're not exactly short of time like most workers. The Red Cross would save money on advertisements and mobile vans. It could save a heap of lives with no real downside.
haha

you serious?

Greens plan to raise refugee intake to 50,000


This certainly won't hurt jobs and encourage people smugglers, resulting in more deaths at sea. How many terrorists will this bring into the country?
