It's important to access GOOD & FACTUAL information.
Ideologically insisting on nuclear isn't helpful. We need leadership, we need to watch the market signals.
If nuclear was credible, the industry would have a robust policy roadmap.
Instead we've got shouty Liberals.

I never liked Neil Gaiman. Amanda Palmer was never someone I followed. I don't say this to be a smart arse.
It's just that there's something so utterly disgusting about people who get the benefit of the doubt for so called 'brilliance'.

Zoe Daniel is not wrong.
They ignored the Henry Review.
Then successive governments have failed to address mining, housing, energy and franking credits.
I trust the Teals with doing what’s best for the greater good.

Why didn't Pescutto's legal team tackle the long line up of fundo christians/apologists like Joe McCracken with community members who could have spoken to how absolutely appalling and damaging Deeming's views are to LGBTIQA+ community?
