It would be helpful if more people understood renewable energy is actually an extremely disruptive technology and the reason monied interests are trying to make folks hate it is that they are the ones which will be disrupted.

If the ABC is going to give softball interviews to "former Home Affairs secretary" Mike Pezzullo, they should really disclose to readers that he was sacked from that job for 14 breaches of the Code of Conduct

RONALD REAGAN (1988): We should be aware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends, weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world—all while cynically waving the American flag.

‘SEC says that by forcing nuclear into the NEM & forcing rooftop solar systems out, cost savings from charging an EV using from rooftop solar would evaporate, costing at least 2.1 million Aussies as much as $2,000 a year in savings on their fuel bills by 2030.’ reneweconomy.com.au/is-it-a-cost...

Is it a cost-of-living election or a nuclear power election? Peter Dutton can’t have it both ways
Dutton says his nuclear power plan will slash consumer bills, but the latest eye-watering cost blowouts in the UK and the findings of new local research tell a vastly different story.

Electronic banking transaction charges have been a rort ever since they were invented. A fee based on a percentage of the funds transferred is a pure profit for the banks. It costs no more to transfer $1 electronically than it does to transfer $1,000,000. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

If you paid any tax in 2022-23, you paid more than all of these multinational gas corporations did on $36 BILLION income, exporting Australian gas from QLD. Really makes you think. #auspol

Dr tells me today that I have a small melanoma on my back. He’s not concerned, it’s only tiny and can be cut out. I do a skin cancer check every six months. So should you. Get them in time.
