Vanstone's Pigs Subject to Same Cruelty as Afghan Refugees
Amanda Vanstone is embroiled in an animal cruelty scandal that involves a South Australian piggery. There are claims that pigs are kept in crowded conditions after it was discovered that the piggery was also being used to house 5,000 Afghan refugees.
Vanstone is believed to have misplaced the refugees a few years ago, but claims knowing nothing about where she put them or how they ended up in the piggery. The refugees have kept quiet for fear of being relocated to Woomera. Chinese diplomat Chen Yonglin was also found hiding amongst the herd.
The South Australian Senator said she is nothing more than a shareholder and knows nothing about the running of a piggery – although she is used to working with wild boars.
