#JenniferHewitt, is back to her key talking point on *how* is the #ALP govt is going to get to #NetZero (clearly still has not read the #ISP) & the excellent #MarkKenny comments that if we still had a #carbonPrice, if the #LNP had not trashed it, we would be a lot closer than we are now! #Insiders

I thought I’d share my frugal weed-eating weirdo tips on here for anyone who is a fan of free food (drenching stuff in pesticides should be out of the question- we get too much already on supermarket produce).
In Brisbane, most traditional veggies get massacred by pests. Asian/subtropicals do better

Both major parties have voted against a duty of care for future generations included in climate legislation, as well as having fought against it in court. Children are to inherit our consequences, but have no say in the decision-making.

No saving the Coalition – and that should be a warning to Labor
Labor is trying to present itself as the adult in the room, by pointing to the opposition's tantrums. That’s not governing, it’s babysitting.

Do they think economy-wide emissions are like water from a kitchen tap and you can just turn the handle a bit to adjust flow whenever you feel like it? Childish garbage they should be called on.
The Coalition would reduce emissions "year on year" considering the "real performance" of other developed countries and strip climate from the objectives of the nation's energy operator under a plan negotiated between the Liberals and Nationals.

yes. you are right. I heard Dave Sharma last week, loudly endorsing net zero etc, but also saying if the party voted against it, then he would definitely defend the party line. i know all politicians at some stage, haveto compromise their beliefs, but that was blatantly egregious. humiliating.

Of course, to do this, #Suss-an would not be a #Liberal !! 😑😁 That type of behaviour does not mesh with their principles ! 🤣
She should have stood up to those malicious, unconscionable bullies. She should have held tight to her beliefs & gone down with her pride and dignity intact. Nothing is worse than selling yourself out like that. She would have gone down in history as a woman who stood for something right.
