When people start writing songs questioning the dominace of mining in Australia then you know there is support for change. "Australia (Whore of the World) puts the coalition between Gillard and Xstratra/BHP/Rio Tinto on notice - Australians are sick of the status quo, we need a public debate about mining in Australia.
Music producer and songwriter John Gordon says he wrote the song "as a reaction to the current ‘open slather’ approach to mining in Australia".
Thankyou John Gordon!
