From the (18/12/14) article: THE predictability of a planning assessment commission hearing into Mount Thorley Warkworth mine has been shattered by an employee speaking against the proposal saying it was his home for his job and he was siding with his home. Paul Harris, a long time Bulga resident and Coal and Allied employee, delivered a stinging tirade against his employer wearing an orange fluoro safety shirt with the company logo. He said he had spoken the way he did to counter the propaganda he said he was sick and tired of hearing from Rio Tinto. The two-day hearing began with planning commission chair Paul Forward telling a packed room that the commissioners had been to the mine and to Bulga, the village that will be the brunt of the expansion if Saddleback Ridge is mined as Rio Tinto wants. ... theherald.au/story/2773102/mine-worker-speaks-against-warkworth-expansion/?cs=305
