This is a long but instructive thread. "Politics is too important to leave to coal executives". Agreed - we need people power!
🚨 this week the coal industry launched a dirty campaign against the independents through an ‘astroturf’ group: ‘australians for progress’.
using classic negative ad styling — complete with misinformation — billboards went up in monique ryan’s & allegra spender’s electorates.

Please help pushback against Dutton and News Corp’s nuclear disinformation by sharing these very simple FACTS which show nuclear power is more expensive, slower and will contribute a tiny share of power generation as compared to renewables. The nuclear campaign is designed to undermine renewables👇🏻

The current nuclear policy is a coal policy. #Auspol
A Dutton government would keep coal working hard for much longer under its nuclear policy, while renewables would provide only a little over half the electricity generated in 2050.
Grattan on Friday: Dutton’s nuclear policy would have coal-fired power stations operating for a lot longer

As usual, both news.com.au and Natalie Barr have buried the lede - the latest polling indicates that we are headed towards a minority government. #auspol www.news.com.au/national/pol...

A lot of people are posting this and mocking Paul Fletcher, and rightfully so, but I want to call out how disgraceful this is as journalism. Wendy Bacon, quoted below and who ran a journalism class I did in Year 9, would not have let this pass. 🧵

We need a government that will consider legislation appropriately, with consideration of due process, in a way which is evidence-based and reasonable. What we are seeing right now is not that.

Labor wants to ram 36 bills through Senate today. This is the list
The government has dropped plans to rush through its electoral donations changes before the summer break, but could secure other significant wins in a day of frenetic votes.
