They will steer clear of even mentioning the coal and gas companies because that invites dialogue about why coal/gas companies were not able to produce the supply.

There are two issues

1). lower supply and higher demand leads to Blackouts. People will ask: "why isn't there more coal and gas being mined to feed the generators?" looks bad for government. The government will be honest and say that we are not allowing mines because future population will suffer. hmmmmm. what about us would be the chorus?

2) Electricity is too dear so we will make it less dearer than the very dear you were all going to suffer. But you can't use as much electricity as you wanted to so your bills will be lower. Aren't we so good!!! your bills have gone down because we made electricity prices lower. The blackouts are helping you to save money. Now......we also have an idea for putting 4 minute timers near your cooking range. It worked lovely with showers during the water crisis. No hands free use of pots and pans. Hand-held cooking only. try to keep the length of your cooking down to 4 minutes and only 30 minutes of TV per night. SEE!! you are paying less for electricity already.


Victorians and Canberrans will now get a 2 month school holiday during winter rather than summer. Travel to Queensland if you want to be warm but please no ICE cars.
