A coalition of #energy and #consumer groups is urging federal #government to seize the global #geopolitical moment and fast-track the switch to efficient electric technologies across the economy.

"In Australia, we subsidise the fossil fuel industry. We give more than half of the gas we export away for free, and we charge our kids a fortune to go to uni." See more of Richard Denniss on Q&A here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CAYxzRNfC6k

Don't believe the News Corp bots, Pauline Hanson's One Nation failed dismally in South Australia — and will continue to fail in every subsequent election. Dave Donovan sorts the facts from the fakery.

Now that we’re heading into the end of year holidays, let’s get into the Christmas Spirit - ‘Let all our Hearts be Light’.
