This government has proven a couple of things here, the first is its chops in foreign policy and negotiation.
The second is proof that when Labor decides to act on something and get it done, it can. Therefore there should be no reason why issues such as a 25% gas export tax and a genuine long term solution to the housing problem (which underwrites the CoL one) can’t be done or in the case of housing, something done with the states.
Labor’s never had problems writing legislation or doing a job, it’s the will and the lobby that is their issue.
this is like punching yourself in the face multiple times and then congratulating yourself for getting to hospital.
We’ve been warned since the 1970s this was an issue, at least every decade since there’s some major upset in this regard, not least during covid just recently.
We’re the biggest user of diesel of any nation on the planet per capita, we have some of the busiest short haul aircraft routes, with the Melbourne -Sydney route being the busiest on the planet and produce no jet fuel and little to no diesel, we export most of the raw food we grow then reimport it as processed food. We have the longest coastline of any nation on the planet and import 70% of our seafood, We call our biggest trading partner our enemy. We neither fuel, nor feed ourselves (nor house ourselves) and our foreign and defence policies are based in the 1950s.
We have all of this wrapped up in the blanket of climate change which is unlike any calamity humanity has faced before, likely collapsing civilisation and destroying the biosphere
Confronted with all this, we choose to do nothing but deny and make it all worse
Yeah, I can’t argue with that view, despite the fact they’ve proven they can do a job when they want to.
You’re spot on. We’ve been warned for years about it, we’ve been told for years that we could drive a revolution in renewables and the use of EVs if we wanted and we’ve sat on our hands through the lot. Things like solar on all rentals and public houses; all that should have been done years ago. We know why, too, Punter was in the Senate the other day showing us why.
We are indeed a lucky country, led by second rate men sharing the luck running on other people’s ideas. It’s a shame we have to be that way because they’ve proven they can act fast when they want to.
My Mrs makes great fried rice therefore there’s absolutely no reason why she couldn’t build me a new boat. She can obviously make things when she puts her mind to it.
Indeed, as you only have one missus where Labor has several, apparently very experienced politicians who are repeatedly talked up by their PR people. As you talk your partner up I guess.

Sorry what?
