None of what the coalition says makes sense. Focused on the economics? Coal, gas and even nuclear energy is more expensive than renewables. Reliability? Renewables are the most reliable form of energy at the moment. Underwrite more coal and gas? What a bunch of muppets! #Auspol #netzero

The Liberals are considering dropping net zero because they’re riven by internal dissent. They care more about polling than about policy - more about their own ambitions and donors than about their constituents and their country.

While Gina/Advance/IPA/Murdochs/Faragists/preferential Pauline take over the Liberal Party, a big window has opened for more meritorious independents (think ‘teals’) to run in marginal LNP (and some ALP) seats across federal electorates. Libs may have signed their own death warrant. 👇

I think the growth of independents is terrifying the big parties. Few seats are on massive majorities. Even the nats.
I love the posts I've seen from many of the indies - questioning the love of the status quo from the libs and the alp. I'm not voting for either of them ever again.
