Maybe it’s an apology… we can but dream

There may be just a few hundred Painted Snipes left in the wild.
Stats reveal mass spike in drug use, especially in NSW, over last 2 years, while border seizures and raids don't reduce supply
The solutions are known, but Minns killed off the potential to progress them, despite promises
