Do they think economy-wide emissions are like water from a kitchen tap and you can just turn the handle a bit to adjust flow whenever you feel like it? Childish garbage they should be called on.

Penny Wong says the Liberal Party has gone from being a “serious mainstream political party” to one that’s “trying to outflank Pauline Hanson” “What I’d say to Sussan Ley & to Andrew Hastie & to Angus Taylor is you can’t be more Pauline than Pauline.”🔥 #Abcinsiders

Watched #insiders for the first time in a long time today. Warning: Nothing to get outraged about. #auspol

yes. you are right. I heard Dave Sharma last week, loudly endorsing net zero etc, but also saying if the party voted against it, then he would definitely defend the party line. i know all politicians at some stage, haveto compromise their beliefs, but that was blatantly egregious. humiliating.

Of course, to do this, #Suss-an would not be a #Liberal !! 😑😁 That type of behaviour does not mesh with their principles ! 🤣

She should have stood up to those malicious, unconscionable bullies. She should have held tight to her beliefs & gone down with her pride and dignity intact. Nothing is worse than selling yourself out like that. She would have gone down in history as a woman who stood for something right.

Ah yes, who can forget Sussan Ley's heartfelt concern for the environment she demonstrated as Environment Minister in the Morrison Govt... #AusPol

This is why we don't believe anything that comes out of their mouths.

It shows Susssan Ley stands for nothing, apart from keeping her own job. She changes her tune according to what her donors tell her to.

Chris Bowen hits nail on the LNP-head “This is Sussan Ley being driven by the extreme RW of her party to come up with an excuse to delay climate action so she can hold onto the leadership. That’s what’s going on here”💯 “Sussan Ley used to say Net Zero is ‘Perfect’!”🔥 #auspol

Lots of folks captioning aurora photos like "for a few minutes we didn't think about politics" guess I'm built different, every time I'm out trying to see night sky stuff I frequently think about how much light pollution is entirely preventable with just a tiny bit of regulation

I wonder what Barnaby Joyce and all the other foes of wind farms would have said about all these poles and wires. Ugly? Or very useful, so get over it? @chrisbowenmp.bsky.social @adammorton.bsky.social @readfearn.bsky.social

Wow Sussan Ley has changed her tune, here she is 5yrs ago talking about Net Zero like it’s the best thing in the world “As Environment Minister no one wants to get to Net Zero more quickly than I do” “We can get there, we should get there, & we have to bring the ppl with us”🙈 #auspol

They used AI & then blamed it for all the 'lies'?! "RRA also defended its use of AI to generate more than 100 submissions on renewable energy & projects after the Guardian reported citations to nonexistent scientific articles ... windfarm & ... public authorities." And, Rineheart paid for it???

ft new details of: - The 2024 Christmas drinks attended by Bleijie & to-be Commissioner - LNP links among new post-exodus inquiry staff - Info requests spanning the past decade sent as far as subcontractors - Reluctance in unions & Labor to be seen making public criticism

I took a deep dive into the politically charged waters in and around the Qld inquiry set to begin public hearings into the cfmeu and broader construction sector next week.

Oh no! Off to Human Rights Commission "26 journalists and commentators, including Andrew Bolt, Caleb Bond, Chris Kenny, Erin Molan, Rita Panahi, Steve Price" #whatsthescam #auspol @kimwingerei.bsky.social michaelwest.com.au/racism-human...

www.theguardian.com/environment/... The inquiry heard from Grant Piper, a farmer who chairs the National Rational Energy Network (NREN) – a group launched in 2023 to connect groups opposed to renewables projects. The group’s first zoom meeting in 2023 was hosted by Barnaby Joyce’s office

📢 #FossilFuel lobbyists have received 2/3 more passes to #COP30 than all the delegates from the 10 most climate vulnerable nations combined, showing how industry presence continues to overshadow that of those on the frontlines of the #ClimateCrisis. Time to #KickOutTheSuits!

Politicians in Australia keep saying that the net zero target will cost too much, but multiple analyses, including from Treasury, show that it is actually *much cheaper* for the economy than not doing more www.theguardian.com/news/ng-inte...

If interested in the Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority's tardiness in responding to dimethoate residue in blueberries, recall that Barnaby kludged that organisation by abruptly shifting it to Armidale in 2017. Staff were reportedly working in McDonalds, for internet access.

Any country that is currently still providing intelligence information with the US should follow UK’s decision to stop sharing. The US is carrying out extrajudicial killings violating international laws. No country should want to be near these situations at all. #USPol #AusPol #WorldPol

Nazi grooming of #youth highly likely to include a culture of use of illicit drugs to heighten strong emotions, groom abuse targets to be susceptible to extremist pro violence ‘othering’ and misogynist greed notions, gradually increase extremist notions along a ‘baptism’ grooming journey - #auspol

“It takes a heroic effort to make Scott Morrison look credible on climate change, but somehow Ley has managed it. The decision made this week will be the defining embarrassment of her leadership” A Faustian pact with the fossil fuel industry. #auspol www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/share/22072/...

‘Popping champagne corks’: Climate change boss lashes Coalition for dumping net zero

The LNP is at an all time low but it could be worse. Media never question why they claimed even just b4 the election that Net Zero was good for the economy. Never question their broken promises on energy prices inc $550 off bills by axing the carbon tax. Prices went up instead. #auspol

Teal inroads into the Senate, largely at the expense of the Libs, would be a marvellous thing. For one thing Labor would finally have some credible opposition. #auspol

An interesting observation from @ausconservation.bsky.social’s CEO on whether a regulator OR a politician should be the ultimate environmental approval decision maker - “it’s much harder to make a donation to a regulator than it is to make a donation to a politician”. #environment #auspol

Prof Graeme Samuel went on to call out the Coalition who are now trying to block the new env laws even though they were the ones in govt who tasked him to review the laws, saying he’s “bewildered” that they are constantly changing their mind. “It troubles me” #Estimates

Graeme Samuel humiliates Sarah Henderson after she claims Business don’t support his env laws “I’m not picking that up from comments made by the Bus. council or others…what they’re saying is this is a lot better than what we’ve had”💥 Henderson cuts him off, she’s had enough🤣 #Estimates

While the focus is on the Lib's future targets (or lack of) -let's not take our eye off Labor's current actions They are the ones approving new coal & gas & trying to push through a sub-standard Environment bill The stakes are too high for distractions We need action NOW #AusPol #BennelongVotes

It's Liberal Lie #6! Undoubtedly one of their all-time faves. Imagine repeating an easily-debunked lie so often that you start to believe it yourself, and then orient your whole political party's identity around it! 😳 bsky.app/profile/lie-...

like romeo, the liberal party has taken its own political life after believing a fatal lie — that net zero policies have driven up power prices. a once-serious party undone by reckless ignorance.

Hobart football stadium or Coalition climate wars or, quite possibly, both?

Why is the National Press Club hosting a PR love fest for coal? www.smh.com.au/business/com...

Garth Hamilton repeatedly refuses to agree Sussan Ley will still be his boss in 12 month’s time. Hamilton “No I’m not going to go into it” Says he’ll be “judging” Ley on how well she can fight against Net Zero. It really is a clown show.🎪 #SkyAfterDark #Libspill

Short answer, no. But they are betting that their base do.

Dan Tehan must be one of the most idiotic Liberal politicians, together with Ted O'Brien Do they really believe this crap? #auspol
