- That’s the kind of goal that politicians love to set so they can blow a lot of hot air without ever having to worry about delivering.
Also rats aren’t our only introduced pest. Possums, cats, stoats, dogs, deer, pigs, goats and more. They’ll be harder to get rid of, especially with selfish idiots deliberately reintroducing them so they can keep hunting. Yes, it happens.
