I agree wholeheartedly with the points you make, Acorn.
I am aware of Keith’s website/blog. I am not sure that his knowledge is biased, but he certainly has a point. I’m astounded that no one seems to heed the warnings of politicians, consultants and industry (check out the website of Australian Industry Group (reports and media release). They have all issued the same warning since early 2012.
I particularly agree with your last para. The politicians will not make Energy security an election issue, but I suspect it will be addressed with some urgency after 7th September. BOF will continue to dither in self-interest if he does not receive a life vest from the federal government post-election. If the lights go out ,it will be an appalling failure of government.
Bravo! to the farmer-ex analyst (Australian Story) for the ground work he did in unraveling the gold plating rife.
