Ann: Operations Update, page-158

I agree with you wholeheartedly. It is all too easy on the outside looking in and criticizing. I am just worried that projects that are in the national interest will be held up. The new Government will drag its feet and hope to be seen by the ALP faithful as reluctantly agreeing to certain projects. It's all about perception and they do not want to be seen as willingly and openly supporting oil and gas. This is how is see it at the moment and I am merely voicing a personal opinion. The elephant in the room metaphor is now a woolly mammoth (mammathus primigenius) for your amusement.
I and others though believe that the effects of the change of government on oil and gas stocks has been under appreciated. Cheers.
