The Australian Government just blew $20 million on an ad campaign to “combat misinformation”

Curiously, it is the government that puts out all the ‘misinformation’.

 

The Government just blew $20 million on an ad campaign to “combat misinformation” by telling drivers to drive less,  inflate their tyres and remove their roof racks to save fuel.

Australia’s reckless renewables experiment is now in total collapse.

Families are being crushed by the highest electricity prices in the developed world. Yet Australia is sitting on the world’s greatest energy resources.

This includes the largest uranium reserves on Earth, some of the biggest coal and gas deposits anywhere and the capacity to be an energy superpower for generations. It’s on track to cost Australian taxpayers well over a trillion dollars. It is not delivering the reliable, affordable power our industries, businesses and households need to grow.

Prime farming land is being carpet-bombed with giant wind and solar factories that only work when the wind blows and the sun shines. None of it will make a measurable difference to global temperatures — Australia produces less than 1.3 % of world emissions.

This is no longer an energy policy. It is a shoddy taxpayer-funded racket that is actively dismantling the Australian economy. Any government serious about fixing this would pull the plug on the subsidies and mandates immediately and let abundant coal, gas and nuclear resources do what they were always meant to do: deliver cheap, reliable power 24/7.

Voters must send the clearest possible message at the ballot box: reject any candidate still backing these failed, economy-wrecking projects. Australia deserves better. It’s time to put the lights back on.

THE VILLAGE IDIOT
 
Every village has an idiot. Australia got stuck with Chris Bowen — the undisputed champion.
 
Normally the village idiot is harmlessly ignored. But Bowen has somehow failed his way all the way up to Energy Minister, where he’s now a clear and present danger to the entire country. While Australia is on its knees, desperately begging the world for more oil and diesel, this out-of-touch moron struts around proclaiming “no one is calling for more fossil fuels.”
 
Is there a more deluded, reality-denying idiot in Australian politics? It’s hard to imagine. If we somehow survive this unfolding energy disaster — and that’s a massive, terrifying “if” — there is only one lesson: We must immediately secure at least 90 days of diesel, jet fuel, and petrol reserves under our IEA obligations.
 
No more excuses. No more Bowen-style incompetence.
 
That means more drilling, more refining, and coal-to-liquids production — right now. Only once those strategic reserves are locked in should we even talk about electrifying anything that actually matters. But Blackout Bowen’s psychotic fantasy of running farms, airlines, and heavy trucking on Chinese solar panels and wind turbines — while arrogantly ignoring our 90-day IEA obligations — proves he’s not just the village idiot. He’s a reckless, incompetent, economically suicidal to Australia’s national security. Bowen isn’t just useless. He’s actively dangerous. And he needs to be voted out at the first opportunity.
