    If that’s the lesson you think needs to be learned, you’ve learned the wrong lesson from this.

    We need to take more ownership of our petrol/diesel/oil supply. We need to stop relying on other countries for things we can do right here at home.

      All energy supply. And also all energy infrastructure.

      This covers both Fossil and Renewable.

      Corporate Astroturfing against Renewables needs to be exposed and banned. All political parties need to acknowledge that Renewable is the future, but our reliance on Fossil fuels are the bootstraps we need to pull on to get there.

      Infrastructure needs to be Compulsorily Acquired for the nation through Eminent Domain. (Including other utilities and financial infrastructure and assets).

      The Public Sector needs to be constantly audited to prevent any pork barrelling and corruption needs to be exposed as the crimes they are, with legal ramifications for those who are exposed.

      We export like 90% of our crude oil and we’ve only got like 2 refineries so we also import like 80% of our refined oil.
