The same gas which we have in absolute abundance . AUSTRALIA HAS BEEN SOLD OUT BY SUCCESIVE GOVERMENTS . perhaps a massive shift is needed . But does Australia have the stomach for it .

Personally I’d like to thank Labor for doing what we all thought. Sticking a big pineapple up the bum of the Australian tax payers. Always get shafted by Labor 🙄

Cheers Albo 👌

Coal and gas price ‘spikes’ are costing Australian families and businessesNew South Wales Energy Minister Matt Kean says coal and gas price “spikes” are feeding through to energy price rises for families and businesses around Australia. “We’re working with the commonwealth to put downward pressure on electricity prices, we’ve done our bit here with the coal cap,” Mr Kean told Sky News Australia. “We’ve put $330 million worth of energy bill relief on the table to support families and businesses at this difficult time – this is not just a national problem, it’s an international problem driven by the illegal war in Ukraine. “We’ve seen huge spikes in the price of coal – in the price of gas and that’s feeding through to domestic energy prices.” Maybe his government should have mandated that our gas be supplied to the domestic market at a reasonable price before export licenses are granted 2023 Albo Labor Delivers It’s Harder to get a bulk billing Doctor & Fees Rising Medication cost up.

Energy bills require ‘downward pressure’ to protect families and businessesNew South Wales Energy Minister Matt Kean says energy bill increases are a “national problem” requiring a solution to put downward pressure on electricity bills. “This is a national problem, and it required a national solution, so obviously, we all want to see lower gas prices and lower energy prices across New South Wales and, indeed, across the country,” Mr Kean told Sky News Australia. “We want to do everything possible to make that happen – this is about protecting Australian energy users. “We’ve worked closely with the Commonwealth government, and in New South Wales, we’ve implemented their coal cap to ensure we put downward pressure on electricity bills.” Closing Liddell in a couple of months won't help your cause Matt. Blah blah blah. The State Governments are responsible for delivering safe, reliable and affordable energy to the people of the State.
