Governments should have had a plan. They clearly didn't.

This was highlighted a few years a go prior to a harvest. It highlighted how finely things were being cut.

A. The refinery issue was apparent many years ago. Well before emission reduction became a focus so we'll leave those that care about reducing emissions, both the young and non denialist older ones, out of it.

B. They did let the market decide. Apparently the markets were not too worried about Australia's energy security.

They shouldn't have let our strategic reserve dwindle to what it is now.

Instead of having a plan and managing the situation, they let it get very close to a crisis point.

Now they are having to subsidise industry and are building storage. That is hardly responsible governing.
