Times change- #nuclear has so very many disadvantages as we well know. In Europe, #wind and #solar generated more electricity than fossil fuel in 2025, providing 30% of pan-EU power, demonstrating just how rapidly a #renewables power system can move.

Fantastic great move well done Angus

Holy crap, Angus! Read the room! 🤦‍♀️ www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

She's a great cartoonist

At today’s National Press Club address Australian PM Anthony Albanese has said not only did the Trump Administration go to war without briefing Australia, a plan for the end of the war has not been communicated. To honour Trumps request for Aus join the religious war is therefore ridiculous.

Australia’s fuel crisis was not just triggered by war – it was built by decades of policy failure. Successive governments ignored known risks, delayed energy transition and now face the consequences, Crispin Hull writes. #auspol #EnergyPolicy #FuelCrisis #ClimatePolicy

BREAKING: Labor is banning unfair trading practices like subscription traps and drip pricing. The Albanese Government will introduce new legislation today to ease the cost of living and stop businesses ripping off Australians. Some of the unfair trading practices being targeted include:

That's why the Reserve Bank will today take steps to end credit and debit card surcharging from October 1. This change will make a meaningful difference with Australians no longer paying $1.6 bn a year in surcharges, and small businesses will save $910m.

QUESTION THEIR LOYALTY TO AUSTRALIA AND AUSTRALIANS Begin with incompetence and move through to deliberate treason AUKUS, outsourcing critical resources and capabilities to foreign corporations - AND a total retreat from leading from the front What we see now is a govt caught with its pants down

Outrageous that an artist in Australia, who makes a living from his creative output, can be threatened with arrest and imprisonment for using a phrase with - at best - contested meaning. This is normal under authoritarian regimes.

It's the last sitting week before the Budget in May. Three days with a lot going on, and @amyremeikis.bsky.social and the rest of us have you covered #PointLive live.thepoint.com.au

#Scotland runs temporarily fully on #windpower, generating over 200% of its electricity demand, a remarkable milestone offering a real glimpse into a future where fossil fuels may no longer be essential. #Renewables cheaper then #oilandgas offering independence from stock exchanges and #DoanldTrump

Spain invested heavily in clean energy over the last 6 years. Now, as gas prices rise, Spain has some of the lowest electricity costs on the continent. In August 2025, Spain used zero coal — just 10 years ago it powered 25% of the country. This is what energy independence actually looks like. 🌎

If the govt had brought in a 25% tax on gas exports when it came to power in 2022 it would have raised $68bn by now and the missed revenue is growing every second. Check out our gas tracker gas.australiainstitute.org.au

That cardiganed stooge Greg Sheridan seems to not understand the difference between gross profiteering by the gas industry in times of crisis and ‘disincentivizing’. 😡 Also there’s no ‘shortage’ of gas. Just the export $ profit incentive #insiders

3/4 of the entire #insiders today was on energy policy and crisis yet not one mention of climate change. That’s the sad state of #auspol media.
