This is disgusting. Why can't Australia's government add batteries and panels and provide power to these relatively few homes in remote areas like this? We're a rich nation.

Tax those who dig out and take our sovereign wealth. As a country, we cannot be bamboozled by slick scare tactics deployed by the big corporations.

Dishonour among the pathetic and hysterical, causing deliberate harm to those they hate for imagined crimes, so that they may continue to justify their own cruelty.

Baby Priya brought compassion to the parliament. Then four men hijacked the debate
A rare display of grace and bipartisanship occurred in the House of Representatives this week. But four conservative male MPs used the opportunity to reignite the abortion wars.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

For a long time, I have felt that hybrids were kinda strange. This excellent article supports my suspicions.
"Basically, no matter what anyone tells you, a plug in hybrid is just a more complex petrol car. You are always either hauling a useless engine around or hauling a useless battery around."
I have posted a substack update about the cob job of plug in hybrid petrol cars.
If you can't be bothered to read it, I mean who has time these days, you can listen to me read it for you.

100%, this simplistic appeal to gain voters irritates me.
Sussan Ley today in a speech on the economy: "Government must live within its means, just as families and businesses do."

Cripes.

I guess no families or business hold any debt.
