    Wow Bill Shorten is leaving the coalition in his policy wake.

    His presentation to the Bloomberg Forum on energy policy
    and climate change is refreshing and innovative.

    A Labor govt will subsidise the installation of battery storage
    in homes and in apartment complexes etc in community
    initiatives that will both reduce energy cost and reduce emissions.

    Labor will also support pump hydro power generation and storage
    something Malcolm Turnbull had been enthusiastic about and by
    our own Poyndextor I might add.

    Morrison is constrained by the muppet conservatives who deny
    climate change exists. The Abbotts and a few others egged on by
    vested interests in dirty technologies.

    To accelerate things on energy The Opposition leader also committed
    to a bi-partisan approach to introduce the National Energy Guarantee(NEG)
    now that had had been agreed to by the Coalition Cabinet on a number of occasions
    but scuttled seemingly because of threats from the conservative right MP.

    Well done Mr Shorten putting policies out there while the Coalition acts more
    like an Opposition and engage in just knocking and blocking.
