In a highly anticipated and highly emotional interview Billy spoke with Local and Federal member Damian Drum to give him feedback he has recieved directly  from visiting farmers in the Goulburn Valley about the lack of action both he and The Nationals are accused of.

The Nationals is a 70% comfortable majority in the Goulburn Valley but that number is set to change with local farmers deserting the party in droves as they are not getting answers about..
Why hasn't the Government launched an immediate investigation into the Murray Darling Basin Plan and how it is destroying the enviroment and preventing farmers from access to the water they have already paid for.
Why is so much water being wasted out to sea via South Australia ( billions of litres every year)
Why are commodity traders not based in Australia being able to openly buy and sell water at huge mark ups above market rates that make it unafforable for farmers to buy. To add to this traders do not have to pay any of the infrastructure costs that farmers have to pay to maintain water channels, dams, regulators etc.
When will Damian and the Nationals put pressure on the Morrison Government urgent drought assistance.

Farmers are angry that their concerns have not been addressed by Damian and the Nationals.
