Three years ago Australia Labor (perhaps they could not afford that “U” back in the day when workers formed the socialist vehicle to ride to power) endlessly promised, over one hundred times by various people of the “Leadership team”, all householders could expect lower Power Charges to an explicit figure of Au$275.00 a year for every household by 2025.
What an ironic bloody fraud with a cost of living crisis hurting such house holds as might once have given unquestioning support to the ALP, actual costs of what many might consider a basic right of cheap energy, households across the entire lucky nation are being forced to find an additional 1000 dollars a year.
The cause, well quite simple really, energy maestro Christopher Eyles Guy Bowen has embarked on a drive to carbon zero by 2050. He wants all coal fired generation ended and replaced by what he terms “Renewables”. Where is that any different from many other numpties across the world, nothing really as government after government has clambered aboard the greatest Ponzi scheme ever. You see the biggest consumers of carbon whether it be coal oil or gas, China, India, The US and Russia have either declined to commit to the fraud or inexplicably been exempted as in India and China from contributing what would be, if included, eye watering sums of money idiot nations such as ours and the Neighbours send off to god knows where under the “Paris Accords”
One does not need the intellect of Einstein to work out that Dwarf Bowens notion will never happen and considering the fools errand involved, will only impoverish any nation attempting.
Even here in Godzone with ample Hydro, much un harnessed, almost unlimited thermal from the earths core, wind and sunshine to make an aussie weep, will never achieve such a nonsensical notion even if it abandons any and all dreams of Data center rubbish.
So with the Albanese administration clinging to the demented dwarf Bowen, facing the electorate Federally in 30 days one could be excused for thinking such a debacle should end re-election hopes. Current polling suggests they may just hang on to power as a minority outfit relying on Greens and their first couzins The Teals to be included to maintain confidence and supply. The Teals are a bunch of supposedly educated women being used as Pawns by rich pricks who would never get elected if they tried without Andrew “Twiggy” Forest a main player and source of funding. They claim independent status but simple research will tell all interested they almost entirely vote with Bandt’s Greens and only target leafy inner suburbs held by Liberal Party MPs.
They have been very successful consigning former Liberal coalition Prime Minister Tony Abbott to history when former Olympic skier Zali Steggall won Warringah in North Sydney six years ago followed by a string of successes including Josh Frydenberg an ex federal treasurer in Melbourne three years ago.
Their time may be coming to a premature end with their claims of Independence and wonderfulness being damaged. Most stupendously with the Partner of another Teal basically indulging in criminal damage in removing corflutes of his partner’s Liberal opponent Amelia Hamer from a fence and being filmed in his stupidity. Ryan already had a bit of campaign damage from a leaked email from her support team insisting She be referred to “Dr Ryan” after a prior to politics career as a medical researcher.
Now a desperate Labor are stopping at nothing to reverse their declining fortunes from atypical socialist degradation of the economic stability the Lucky country enjoys with Opposition leader Peter Dutton a former cop being attacked relentlessly as if he is the only figure they fear. Of course almost the entire Media led by State conglomerate the ABC, Fairfax news and the Turnbull Times aka The Guardian in the Labor camp full time. Having two windfall budget surpluses following the defeat of The Morrison Government who could be regarded as as much the architect of that largess, Federal Treasurer and wannabe labor leader Jim “Grim Jim” Chalmers, disciple of the treasurer in the Rudd Gillard Rudd debacles, Wayne Swan who predicted endlessly a surplus next year for six years before being delivered his DCM is now watching his protege deliver a socialists wet dream of a decade of deficits.
It appears the voters are yet to understand what they have been sold?
Our thermal power production is indeed a virtually and untapped reserve. There is a fly in the ointment I gather. A large key component has been installed in all the current facilities and apparently it is of very dubious quality. Longevity and safety being the issues. Not my realm but (on-site) anecdotal.
I must find out more.
