The government is set to meet in Parliament this week to put through a deal that will see gas prices capped at $12 a kilojoule and coal prices capped at $125 a tonne.
APPEA Chief Executive Samantha McCulloch spoke out against the government’s coal and gas caps, saying it will do the opposite of what is needed and destroy investor confidence.“This argument really goes to say ‘we believe we need profits as high as we can get during a war, during a global energy crisis for our industry to be viable’ – nobody is going to believe that because it’s not true,” he told Sky News Australia.
This man is a clown. He has a track record of being one of the worst labor ministers on record. He is sending Australians and Australian business over the cliff. Nick from Melbourne
I’m not sure if these are willing puppets of Klaus or if they want to destroy the country off their own bat.
Totally detached from reality. And can't be told.
This man has a one track mind and it's leading nowhere
Here’s a question—what discussions did the Albo Govt have with the gas producers? It would seem little or none? Hard to make good policy that way, pontificating from on high. Reminds me of Rex Connor and the Moomba-Sydney pipeline takeover. History there. energy
What a goof he has caused the chris
That is what happens when you take too many vaccines with their negative efficiency.
Why don’t we build more Tesla batteries and harness more offshore wind with the forecasted 1.5 billion+ tax payers funds? So we can see a short term decrease followed by a long term price decrease, after they stop using the war in Ukraine as an excuse to milk Government support?
Doesn't fit the Marxist WEF puppet's narrative
Like trying to explain the theory of relativity to my kelpie.
hes obviously doesnt like capitalism and favours communism if he want to stop free trade and what the market is prepared to pay for gas and coal... insane policies from the ALP
This jerk has gone crazy thinks renewables are dispatchible his own words. We are certainly in big trouble with our energy now
Bowenchris Typical posture
Because he's blinkered and fanatical.
solipsistic : a theory holding that the self can know nothing but its own modifications and that the self is the only existent thing. also : extreme egocentrism.
Him and AlboMP
Would be politician if there weren't others around.
Of course he doesn't. He really doesn't know what he is on about.
NOT LISTENING TO OTHER OPINIONS SEEMS A SERIOUS MATTER WITH ANY POLITICIAN BUT WITH CHRIS BOWEN ('IF YOU DONT LIKE US DONT VOTE FOR US' DURING SHORTEN ELECTION CAMPAIGN) IT IS LIKELY TO BRING OZ TO ITS KNEES-NUCLEAR PREFERRED ALL OVER THE WORLD BUT FAILED WINDFARMS FOR US!! DUMB!
Coming from a bloke who's been a failure in every ministerial position he's had
Isn't he owned by the WEF. His behaviour sure shows it.
Only because he doesn’t understand complaints. Another failed Labor minister.
Climate change minister what a ridiculous title 🤪🤦🏻♂️
Brainfart at it again.
Sadly, whenever he speaks, assume the opposite is true. He himself has never been 'convincing in the slightest', not even to himself. So why would anyone care to convince him?
Bowenchris is dismissive of any argument/opinion that does not fit with the socialist AustralianLabor narrative/agenda. His arrogance and disdain for anyone who dares oppose him is sickening. He is fast becoming one of the most despised people in Australia auspol
drongo
Of course he wouldn't, because he's got NFI. Bowen will ruin Australia in 4 short years!
Bowenchris PLEASE EXPLAIN THIS
Economics 101. Capped price means fall in production, higher prices for longer, the domestic market will struggle. First big blackout will be by mid-2024. PM, Treasurer & Energy Minister have never held a real job… union organiser, political staffer, MP. Ideology over reality.
It’s so funny that Australians are so easily fooled with labors lies and spin and how Australian media covers up for them. This renewable agenda is going to send power prices sky high and cause mass blackouts. Buy a generator people.
I don't find the whole green energy or climate crisis narrative convincing in the slightest.

There’s ‘one form of energy which Vladimir Putin cannot disrupt’: Chris BowenFederal Energy Minister Chris Bowen said, “there’s one form of energy which Vladimir Putin cannot disrupt” at a media conference on Saturday. “That’s the flow of sun to our land mass and the flow of wind on and off our shores and increasingly that will play a bigger role in our energy grid,” Mr Bowen said. “It’s cheaper and also not subject to the international geopolitical crisis that coal and gas have been.” Chris Bowan is clanging gong. Vladimir Putin is a convenient excuse for the world's issues....... The infant's playing it for all he's worth. What dill!

‘What we’re seeing play out in Iran is stomach turning’: Chris BowenFederal Energy Minister Chris Bowen says, “what we’re seeing play out in Iran is stomach turning”, “disgusting” and a “front to human rights” particularly to “women everywhere”. “And Australia should join, has joined the international condemnation,” Mr Bowen said at a media conference on Saturday. Mr Bowen said when you add “these sorts of sanctions”, it becomes condemnation with that “little bit extra meaning”. “I really hope that there’s progress in Iran in the coming period and that Iranian people get the democracy that they deserve and the rights they deserve, particularly Iranian women.” Could Bowenchris stick to finding my $275 reduction in energy prices? Kimberley Kitching says hi 'Women everywhere' ? Surely not western fems, who have more rights than men these days. It's no wonder men are turning into females via genderbender reassignment with great rapidity. Them all want in on the good times to be had in terms of career benefits & sexual politics!🥳🤓
