💧 simon holmes à court

it seems that liberal leaders — at all levels of gov't — are a renewable resource.

like romeo, the liberal party has taken its own political life after believing a fatal lie — that net zero policies have driven up power prices.

a once-serious party undone by reckless ignorance.

tim wilson, will you stand up for the voters of goldstein for once?

…or will you switch support from sussanley
to angus taylor in exchange for promotion?

Australians to get at least three hours a day of free solar power - even if they don’t have solar panels Labor announces ‘solar sharer’ program for households in NSW, south-east Queensland and South Australia

add a home battery and an EV and most households would never need to pay a petrol bill ever again.

thanks for the flattering still image jason!

more joy for sussan:

checking in periodically…

More people need to talk about how fucking pathetic the National Adaptation Plan is.

remember when newscorp decided climate science was real? it actually happened in october 2021… and didn't last a week.

👇 this is disgraceful

Hastie threatens to quit frontbench, issues net zero ultimatum to Ley Andrew Hastie’s opposition to net zero emissions is well known, but his provocative comments about quitting the frontbench are a fresh test of Opposition Leader Sussan Ley’s authority.

“[hastie] has picked a hell of a day to say he will die on the hill of net zero… millions of australians were just warned about the potentially catastrophic impacts of climate change and he is saying to them ‘i don’t give a stuff’.”

good @wheelercentre.bsky.social event last night.

paraphrasing:

brandis: politics goes in cycles, we’ll rise again.

young’uns: if we stop fighting, select better candidates & choose better policies, more aussies will vote for us.

🐘 in the room — the toxic nats — not discussed.

this was letterboxed to parts of #goldstein yesterday.

rubbish like this has been circulating in the electorate for months.

…a really ugly and unacceptable side to the election.

why does your chart omit the 25 year period it took france to achieve the build rate in 1980?

liberal party EV policy:

liberal women are understandably very pissed off.

trump planning to take his DOGE axe to the regulation of nuclear power.

some see this as a path to speeding up nuclear, but it could spectacularly backfire — as we’ve seen in australia, politicisation of nuclear is very bad for the technology.

US currently enjoys nuclear bipartisanship.

Let the barrel scraping begin!

'No silver medal in politics': Did Climate 200 get bang for its buck this election? Labor up, Greens down, crossbench sidelined. As for Climate 200, Saturday night was not its night. So how is Simon Holmes à Court feeling?

The numbers are still in flux, says @simonahac.bsky.social and a couple of seats will make the difference between the media writing Climate200 off as a blip or a movement here to stay www.crikey.com.au/2025/05/09/c...

Still love this political cartoon by John Shakespeare

i ask you to judge me by the enemies i have made and the unhinged things they say about me on sky news.

(the irony that the CEO of an astroturf misinformation vehicle would say these words on rupert murdoch’s network is not lost on me.)

Tim Wilson, secretive money and "think" tanks. Australia’s democracy is at stake. Australians should remember, as the election approaches, that Tim Wilson was shortlisted in 2015 for the US-based Atlas Network’s most prestigious prize. He and his team at the Atlas Network-partner t...

Never let Tim Wilson forget. We know he was shortlisted with #AtlasNetwork’s IPA for the Network’s biggest international prize for wrecking the carbon price. That mechanism was working to reduce emissions. Don’t put Atlas operators in parliament. theaimn.net/tim-wilson-s... #Goldstein #auspol
