What a complete turn-around and farce. Pre-election they wanted to reduce or even ban coal and gas and progressively close down the power stations. And now, nearly a month after the elections, they are proposing subsidising power stations that use oil and gas to overcome power shortages. Reality has hit home with a mighty thud. Total bunch of idiots and as for those who supported them and voted for them ( and the Greens/Teals) based on climate activism, guess what, coal and gas usage is now about to increase under Labor, and if you think its only a short term measure, think again, this will continue and with coal/gas subsidies ( which will mean more tax imposts on the population) for years if not decades to come. What say you Labor / Teal supporters now that its all backfired on you.

Imposing big land and building taxes on the power stations will fix this.

The government can always back it back off them for a dollar
