In light of Crikey letting the cat out of the bag - to let us know that Scott Morrison will be receiving the Companion of the Order of Australia.. I thought I’d post an old article I wrote in 2021 on Morrison. This is exactly why he doesn’t deserve it. shiannonlc.wixsite.com/mysite-1/pos...

Another great article from John Hewson He floats the idea of a path to an electable coalition. Although I’m not sure he’s convinced that it’s actually achievable for them. I’m not either. Too many variables -Lack of talent, lack of integrity. No policies www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/comment/topi...

In response to mumblings by Govt ministers on adopting a gas reservation scheme, the gas cartel’s spin machine has swung into action through right wing media to declare that a prospective gas reservation policy is not a solution to the pending gas ‘valley-of-death’. #auspol #ClimateVandals #PRRT

Santos CEO Kevin Gallagher used his speech to AEP to call for "energy realism" in the energy transition. He did not mention the end goal of this transition is a managed phase out of oil, gas and coal but suggested this "realism" in Australia required more fossil fuel development.

The gas price sets the electricity price. Our only hope for much lower costs is a RETROSPECTIVE gas reservation policy but @chrisbowenmp.bsky.social has already ruled it out due to ‘sovereign risk’. But that’s a gas lobby Furphy, unchallenged 👇 until now👇. #auspol

Hvn't visited X for a while. Are the LNP & RW trollies still raging over there? Or hv they learned something from a series of electoral defeats & setbacks for LNP, gone quiet while contemplating the meaning of their lives? Very happy with state of LNP, after banging away at them for abt 2 decades.

Woodside and Santos would have you believe that "activist lawfare" is some kind of scandalous threat to our society. But access to public interest litigation is one of the backbones of our democracy.
