Australia can’t significantly limit global warming itself due to its size compared to the rest of the world, but it should provide Pacific nations with aid to strengthen their defences against rising sea levels. give support after cyclones and continue to rely less on fossil fuels and their exports.

For the Liberals to win government they need to reclaim the city and suburban seats they lost in 2022 and 2025. Pissing off diasporas, business, and younger voters invested in climate change, is so dumb. The National tail is wagging the Liberal dog yet again.

Yes they’re lost and in denial. The Libs are refusing to accept the internal analyses of their last two election defeats and the Nats (in pursuit of ON voters and whose electorates have different demographics) are pushing them further away from the centre and away from the “broad church”.

It may backfire because there will be lots of votes to be had for Labor, Greens and Indies, from the many diasporas who would see this as attacks on them and vote accordingly. The Libs need to win back inner city and metro seats and pushing this “us v them” narrative may well be counterproductive.
