Nice, still would have been nice to get an answer from the politicians if you make the effort to contact them.

He is if you live in the city and like you like sport sports. He seems to have the gift of the gab. Still no word on how much the failed h2 plant cost. I suppose thats what you get when you are in a safer non labour seat. Use to be safe non labour, but not so sure now.)

Yes it is a complicated situation. How far do you actually want to go back. Its been going a lot longer than that.

Forestry company parks electric truck despite spike in diesel prices sounds like it was a conversion.

apples and oranges, 1 person goes and kills a heap of people is a lot different to a state sponsored mass killing, especially if they have been poking the bear for many years. It is not nearly the same thing!

mmmm!

Maybe, maybe not. I have never been in this position, but I feel it was about more than just this one incident.

So its OK if they come into a country, kill 1400? civilians as well as other incursions over the last few years. Is Israel just supposed to talk about and contact their local Employee assistance program to help them get over it?

So you think they haven't been provoked at all?

I think the 0ctober 7 attack was the straw that boke the camels back.

There is a saying "Don't poke the bear"

Where has adding lots of intermittents to a plus GW grid made power cheaper to the consumer?? certainly not SA, Germany, UK or Denmark. SA should be closing the gap between the states if intermittents are cheaper to the consumer. I haven't paid a bill for years either because of my solar and high feed in tarriff and I will probably get a battery soon, but im not trying to run a high energy use business, employing a heap of workers. yes I am a hypocrite, having said that I was in the intermittents industry at the time and thought why may be able to do net 0 and actually still have affordable power to run industry. No such thing as free electricity, just bad grid. management. Being in the gas peaker industry, we don't run as often, mostly when we do we only run at maximum price.

I've said it before, who cares about wholesale except politicians and people that want to mislead the public! What is delivered to the consumer is what matters to most people. SA only has intermittents, renewables include traditional hydro which is a baseload generator if handled corretly. SA has none of this

Why is the gap not closing if intermittents are cheaper. Intermittents are parasitic as they only run intermittently so the gas etc needs to up it price to cover maintenance and profits. batterys also bid in about the same price as some of the gas. as more intermittents are built the price will rise as they all want to make the same money but there is only so many days that have wind and these days everyone will by trying to get production, but the grid can only handle so much so they will be constrained and the price/MW will rise(didn't explain that very well, basically underutilised plant is expensive. Think aeroplanes)) and we will still need gas/batterys when its not windy. The interconnector into SA could nearly handle SA whole grid most days and is about 1/4 of the record demand. Intermittents don't lead to cheaper electricity delivered to the consumer. See Germany and Denmark and they do have large interconnectors although Sweden want to back off because it is raising the price in southern Sweden

And the dearest electricity, always has been but the gaps not getting any smaller because of the "cheapest form of energy" should be comparable to the other states if its so good.

Good in the city, not much happens out in the bush. the Algal bloom wasn't an issue until it hit the metro area.

They aren't doing there job. Must be penalty's for people for this to stop. We keep getting told CEO's get the big bucks because the buck stops with them. Still waiting to see it happen. While some of the fines seem big, they are budgeted for as a cost of doing business.

I want to know what punishment the government is going to give the CEO's of the company's that gouged the fuel price on fuel that was not affected by the war. It is the only way this sort of thing will stop. Qantas, commonwealth bank, woolies/coles etc

She only is getting votes because of the quality of the other partys

No tolls in SA yet. We also have the o-bahn which is pretty good the few times I have used it. Buses use it to get int the city quickly and then can just drive on normal roads to other destinations. I believe it was expensive to build but been in use for 40 years this year.

They claim it on their tax

Maybe the metro area should pay more tax on it. Pay for some of the public transport infrastructure that they have and shoul have access to. Make it high enough and it will also encourage them to use it. Win Win!

you are right, but 22% of the vote is still significant, even if it doesn't transfer in to seats.

We could go on forever.

Pretty sure Howard did say that initially. He did take the GST to one of the later election during his reign. Remember it well, Its when I became a floating voter. At least he took it to an election. We could mention "there will be no carbon tax under a government I lead" or more recently "Household electricty bills will be $275 cheaper"
