SA, huge diesel-fleet backup, interconnection to Victorian coal, and a five minute battery for a price nobody is supposed to know.

If grid-storage is such a marvelous option then why doesn't SA go for it?

OTOH, it's ship-building yards could be excellent for building small modular reactors to send around the country, and its outback could store waste (aka un-reprocessed fuel) until molten-salt reactors arrive to burn it (I'm investing in Moltex).

Of course, you dream on about viable grid-storage while NuScale, Moltex, Elysium Industries, the Chinese, Russians and Indians get on with the only real solution to emissions.

Oz has such potential but all we'll aim for under Labor is slicing up a shrinking pie differently while being the greatest virtue-signalling nation in the world.

As an aside, whoever gets in must to do something about plastic waste (un-reprocessed polymers) now exporting it isn't an option. Maybe we could get SA working on that.

Without retracting any of the negative comments I’ve made in the past about Scott Morrison’s suitability for the job of PM, I have to say that he handled his interview with Leigh Sales last night brilliantly, unlike Bill Shorten, who was rendered incoherent by the aggressive redhead.

Sales, who does treat both sides the same in interviews, is a great interjector. She stops most politicians dead when she wants clarifications; and she certainly stopped Shorten dead, and he handled it like a schoolboy.

Not so with Morrison, who ploughed on confidently and clearly, reducing Sales’ interruptions to a harmless hum in the background. As for the final question as who would set the Liberal agenda in the next government, Morrison said, without hesitation, “I will”.

Perhaps there is a strong leader coming out after all. Wets, climate hysterics, small ‘l’ liberals in the party had better watch out. So had Bill Shorten better watch out.

Now, Morrison has been egged by a lunatic at a CWA do, of all places. The character of supporters of the Left should be clear to the electorate by now.

Violence seems to be part of the Left’s strategy. Violent demonstrations aimed at blocking free speech; violent attacks on politicians. Nothing similar from the Right, that I’m aware of.

Another boost for climate lunacy has emerged today following the latest IPCC hysteria-fest. The usual people unacquainted with truth are barking about Australia's "appalling" lack of effort in the area.

I beg their, pardon; but Australia is obsessed with renewable energy and palaver, having introduced more programs and gadgets per capita than any other civilised country - 3-9 times more effort in some cases. Not that all the pain and cost will make a damn of difference to the climate. But the lies keep on coming.

Scott Morrison used bullyboy antics towards
Leigh Sales. He acted like a man who has been talking
over people all of his life - and sounded rude and
argumentative - with that kind of attitude getting
pushy does not make his points more believable.
Telling Leigh Sales -" Ï'm not finished yet..."
made him seem aggressive. Also evading questions did
not help either. Voters were able to compare this
interview with that of Bill Shorten's that followed on
Q&A. Mr Shorten made an excellent appearance - and
showed us all what a great leader he will make when
elected. Morrison? Only other bullies would be able to
identify with that man.

feminist overpaid by the taxpayer to push marxist garbage need strong men to stand against them. Not every male is emasculated, at least not yet.
