But I notice he is named here in this film credit: http://www.thesnowyriver.com/thecast-thesnowy.html

Indeed at number 2 on the list which is not bad. A salt of the earth type I thought working out of the NSW Nature Conservation Council at the time.

There was a time 95-99 when dealing with the NSW ALP directly was such a dirty business I was happy for Jeff Angel to take that pre-eminent role. But the sleazy layer on layer over the years on various policy and campaign fronts has taught me he has to be outed. And this was the thesis of his own Co-director of the Total Environment Centre, Milo Dunphy. Milo was essentially right putting aside his own alleged vanity.

The Clyde Waste Transfer and Woodlawn landfill fracas is just another Angel policy special in my view.

I notice he has hitched his wagon in a media release dated 11 June 2009 to the large democratic membership base of the National Parks Association over shooters in National Parks. That’s his form - TEC with barely 700 members after 36 years existence needs the bigger groups like ACF or NPA or NSW NCC to have any democratic credibility, and especially since tens of thousands more supports Greenpeace, TWS or The Greens political party proper rather than these conservative govt grant friendly minority groups.

Secrets, secrets, secrets - but where is the transparency and public interest on land use? Rose Corp and Hardy biobanking indeed.

I distinctly remember the Snowy River local campaigner camped up here in Sydney early this decade during all these negotiations and being majorly upset with Angel’s real politiking for a very friendly picfac for Bracks and Carr striding into the Snowy.

Angel also cut the deal for an ‘environment foundation’ for a cyanide Gold Mine at Lake Cowal which is draining the parched landscape there even drier from local farms and town supplies.

And of course there is the wave through by ‘the greenest premier in the history of Australia’ of the 20 year extension of the Eden chipmill in return for cunning new national park boundaries.

Oh and for those impressed by the Rosecorp and Hardie “illegal” development deals in a biobanking set off of privately owned bush for excessive developer rights - guess who pioneered that concept in the NSW green movement as a way for the farmers to prevent native title being claimed over intact native vegetation in around 1997? In that push Angel worked closely with one Jamie Piddock of the highly conservative WWF. Never mind the High Court was yet to rule on native title claims over Western Division leasehold.

The national leadership of the Green Party has alot to concern itself about regarding the machinations of NSW ALP and the influence peddlers in the green movement in NSW. Alot.
