It's time to call it what it is: Foreign Interference
If a hostile state ran this sort of operation to swing our vote, we'd call it foreign interference. It's time we did.

Next election 2028! Energy prices & house prices falling, housing supply up& immigration numbers continuing to fall, I expect Labor will lose many seats, in the anti everything movement, but hold Govt. The only prospect of ON forming Govt. is in Coalition with Libs.& that's very uncertain anyway.

David Shoebridge is not acknowledging Labor strongly built regional alliances. Our strategic approach isn't just to turn to the US, it's a multilateral and multifaceted strategy; also includes establishing mutual &reciprocal relations based on trade &people to people relations with China.

"Barnaby Joyce, liberated from the Nationals into the senior ranks of One Nation, is growing ever more blunt about climate policy. His new party not only rejects any action to mitigate climate change, but also the very basics of climate science." www.smh.com.au/environment/...

But in Australia the fiercest battle is among the right-wing parties over policy “purity”.

Insiders is reminding us yet again that the ABC hold Labor to an unobtainable standard of perfection where a political party is apparently not allowed to do politics, where people are not allowed to disagree, and where every decision made is framed as a scandal. Libs are never held to this standard.

Liberal Lies Collector Card #8: ☢️ "Our Energy Plan Using Nuclear Will Cost 44% Less" ☢️ The truth? Their modelling excludes MOST of the cost of nuclear plants! 🔄 Repost to share the truth 💾 Save now to quickly share 👇 See thread for extra details ➕ Follow for more! #auspol #factcheck #AusVotes2025
An imitation collector card, with the brand "Australian Liberal Party Lies". This is #8. The tagline is "Collect them all ... so you don't elect them all!"

The Lie section says: “Our energy plan using nuclear will cost 44% less”.

The Facts section says:
“Their modelling excludes most of the cost, because nuclear arrives late in the 25 years modelled, and the cost is spread over the 50 years after their 20 year construction.
It only includes about 16% of the cost of nuclear plants!
”

A stacked bar chart shows the annual electricity production in TWh from renewable (in green), fossil (in charcoal), and nuclear (in red) sources.
Nuclear plants can be seen only generating small amounts of energy at 2040, and significant amounts of energy from 2045 onwards.
The large bar at the right, with a timeframe of “Later”, is labelled “The other  5 / 6ths  of  the  nuclear lifetime / costs not  in  the  model”.

A small yellow line above the 2051 bar shows the energy expected from the AEMO Step Change scenario. A note says the Liberal’s nuclear plan “produces 25% less energy than AEMO’s plan they’re comparing to”.

Footnotes refer to the data being “TWh annual electricity production, ‘Nuclear alternative – Progressive’”, and the source as Frontier Economics.
