Yes, he’s right out of his fcuking mind!!
A supposedly leader, telling fibs to set the nation back must be held accountable and be sacked.
Dumbo Dutton is the most dangerous person in Australian politics.
A Trump wannabe with the hair or personality.

carlton2020.bsky.social•74 days ago

oh - same hair - just styled differently!

It's not cheaper.
It can't be built on time.
And even if these fundamentals were possible, there's still the issue of storing toxic waste for centuries.

The only thing I want to bury in #Australia is @peterduttonmpposts.bsky.social's, and his compliant cohort's, divisive delaying dreamscape.

thebigsouvlaki.bsky.social•76 days ago

Every article I have read since the announcement has rubbished the Nuclear Fantasy. Not even Newscorpse could put lipstick on this pig.

How about we see a costings done on supplying solar panels to every Aussie home and compare the costs then. One with just Panels another with Battery. I mean the States could even agree to pay for supplying them to each States Housing Commision Rentals

And yet NOT ONE journalist in this country points out to Dutton his past comments.....WHY?

jon-richardson.bsky.social•75 days ago

It’s actually more pertinent for them to point out the nonsensical nature of the case he’s putting today. As this SMH article does.

missuswinnie.bsky.social•75 days ago

He is against BIG nuclear, but for SMALL nuclear. Sure it has never been done before, but so what?

draef.bsky.social•75 days ago

Because you can never overestimate how lazy, mendacious and irresponsible Australian journalism is.

jayjaybee52.bsky.social•75 days ago

Especially lazy

ozxilef.bsky.social•75 days ago

You can add Matt Canavan to that list.

andyroz.bsky.social•75 days ago

It's not necessary. The whole nuclear announcement is a distraction, and has no substance. It was announced to deflect commentary on the 50 year renewal of the Woodside liquefied natural gas project the day before.

kimwhit3.bsky.social•75 days ago

Hear you but, the truth is the talking potato still has no interest in Nuclear. The only reason he is advocating for it,is that it will stall the roll out of renewables&
prolong the use of coal. Exactly what Queen Gina told him to do. He’ll be gone from politics by the time Nuclear fantasy is outed

schtang.bsky.social•75 days ago

Yes, and those comments were only last year

resadude.bsky.social•75 days ago

Maybe because the people that run the media are the same ones that want the LNP elected?

bopeep99999.bsky.social•75 days ago

And here the IEEFA rip Frontier Economic's figures to shreds, line by line. I guess Danny Price will be shirt-fronting them next....

Why doesn't the headline say so? Why can't the SMH headline call it out as bullshit?

schtang.bsky.social•75 days ago

Sorry to use a clichè, but he’s a snake oil salesman,anyone that believes his nonsense is a fool

con-v78.bsky.social•75 days ago

They stuffed up our NBN .....there's no way in the world they should be let loose anywhere near nuclear power.

peterorinuela.bsky.social•75 days ago

They bowed to Rupert when it came to the NBN.

carlton2020.bsky.social•74 days ago

this is absolutley spot on.
The one tech program they supported was changing out fibre optic - for copper cable.
Thats how much they actually understand technology.

castlebar13.bsky.social•76 days ago

Nonsense is too kind it is absolutely make believe and mendacity writ large.

hellobsky13.bsky.social•74 days ago

Peter you have better headline!
"Blowing GinaDuttons Nuclear nonsense apart."

carlton2020.bsky.social•74 days ago

a serious Nuclear proposal would involve the energy companies, Specialist Geologists, Nuclear Physicists, a company able to build one, hydrologists, environmental scientists and energy demand experts.

The LNP has a spreadsheet from a couple of wide boys.

Dutto knows it is no chance in the senate.

robrichards.bsky.social•74 days ago

It’s a ploy, not a policy. And it’s working just as intended to soak up the media attention away from the need to diminish our dependence upon fossil fuels.
