No one is going to build any form of coal plant IMO. It's just too risky politically.
Barnett's pipeline makes a little sense, create a national grid. However native title/heritage matters and red/green tape would mean it would take forever.

What the ALP face now is the reality of being in Government. They have to find a solution. Sitting on the sidelines bitching about everything is easy, governing is not.
