The Coalition has recently discovered the old growth forests in Tasmania. They are doing it to retain power ---going straight for Green sympathizers first preferences in order to gouge back the Australian Greens primary votes.

It would include saving the Tarkine from logging.

But it may prevent this.

Better to allow Howard to kiss up to the greens to stay in power, than to have Latham knock them down for the timber workers unions to take it.
