One state is not affected by this gas price nonsense Western Australia, the countries biggest gas producer (about 60% of total production. Why?

"It's a different story in Western Australia, where gas is much cheaper, partly because the state has a gas reservation policy, which dictates that supply equivalent to around 15 per cent of the gas produced for export must be provided for local consumers., at a controlled price."

All thanks to the Mark McGowan Labor Government. The Queensland State Labor Government has imposed a "Super tax" on excessive coal profits.

You would think shadowminister was a big shareholder in energy stocks, by his mealy mouthed apologist attitude to 'Big Energy', the truth be known, he probably owns nothing more than a candle and a box of matches.

We've been fed the first new policy from the Coalition since the election.

DON'T DO ANYTHING THAT WOULD BENEFIT AUSTRALIANS IF IT MEANS LOWERING THE PROFITS OF BIG MULTINATIONAL CORPORATIONS.

Now that is a vote winner!

Coalition backed broken-down coal burners fuel the
energy crisis. Coal is a dud. Gas is a pretend
solution spruiked by vested interests. Renewable
energy resources are the cheapest form of new power
generation. So where are they?

A word of warning. Be careful of how the government makes things
difficult for the majors like Shell, BP etc.
They are planning on getting out anyway over some years so just being
hard to get on with may make them close up in this part of the world
altogether and just concentrate on the chemical industry.
Just remember we are right out on our own and the oil industry could
disappear here while they run down slowly in the rest of the world.

Whats that you say ? The oil industry close down ? IMPOSSIBLE !
Not something they have been shouting out loud but it is in the planning.
Why do you think the car companies are all doing something they would
rather not do ?

Received by email today, a red flag with LABOR emblazoned on it and this message:

"This is not your grandfather's Labor Party. This is a radicalised power-hungry socialist party that will stoop to any low and any level, to win control over the people"

Scare tactics once again. Someone is using the old
tactics of yester-year - "Reds under
the beds!" technique thinking it will work for them
again. Stuck in a time-warp. It worked once. If that's
the best they can come up with - their fate is sealed.
On the dung heap of history where they belong.
