Powerlines potentially unplugged

A 500kW powerline over farmland in north west Victoria has become a political hot potato, ahead of the November 28 state election. Pauline Hanson and Barnaby Joyce will visit proposed sites in the East Wimmera  next week as part of a Farmers Fightback event. Now the Liberal-National coalition has reinforced it's opposition to the VNI West line - which would run between windfarms in Ararat and Energy Connect in the Riverina. Rural reporter Gabrielle Hodson spoke with one of the local MPs - Mildura Nationals MLC, Jade Benham. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
