They are more than happy to throw subsidies at foreign owned renewables while taxing home grown energy.
In the 1990’s, the RBA was given its independence in regards to controlling monetary policy. This means it has complete control over interest rate settings without any override by the parliament. This step is just one of many that has
The RBA governor is clueless. He has no understanding of monetary policy. He cannot distinguish between lending to the private sector and the public sector. He also cannot distinguish between secured and unsecured debt. He contradicts himself so many times
Boy o boy is our energy grid going be in trouble with this lot in charge.If only bureaucratic spin could be converted into electricity we would become the energy powerhouse of the world. Key points from this line of questioning
Yesterday in the Senate, Malcolm Roberts moved an amendment to the IR Bill that would have prevented people being discriminated against on the basis of their Covid-19 vaccine status. I spoke to the amendment and as you can tell I
In estimates I quizzed the RBA as to why they are using austerity measures rather than productivity measures to manage the economy. Austerity measures via sharp interest rate increases are only hurting the battlers who don’t deserve to suffer because

The Albanese Government is now engaging in outright corruption.
This is a speech I gave calling out the Victorian government for closing down Mt Arapiles, a world famous rockclimbing destination in the name of cultural heritage.
The Gravy Train must end.
“The Government’s $22.7 billion Future Made in Australia package will help facilitate the private sector investment required for Australia to be an indispensable part of the global economy.
The Labor Government needs to get their priorities straight and lower immigration now. Too many people are being forced out of their homes due to high immigration.
As usual, politicians aren’t interested in fixing up our dysfunctional federation or highways.
If renewables are cheaper why do the two major parties continue to subsidize them?
“And it’s why under this government the number of EV charging stations has increased to 900…………all of these investments are made with the expectation of a positive risk based return.”
I rise tonight to speak about the key policies introduced by People First party, albeit it’s one person. I think it’s very important to note that it is a party that actually has some key policies that seek to empower hardworking Australians, the individual, and their families.
Yesterday I called for the 80/20 funding of Federal Highways to be abolished in favour of full funding by the Federal Government.

“Do you think if Scott Morrison went to the Australian public and asked the people for $300 billion dollars with “no security”, to pay other people to stay at home and get brain washed by the premiers about Covid the people would have lent him the money?
“We live in a world where there was free flowing capital, that ultimately was a benefit for us. It allows good investment opportunities in Australia to be financed. It allows capital to flow to the most productive uses.”
“There is actually a shortage of people to work in construction and more broadly across the economy and the difficulty of attracting people into that area.”
Another pointless department wasting your money.
“Senator RENNICK: With regard to the whole housing fund et cetera, you are planning to build 6,000 houses per year over the next five years, so 30,000 houses.
In estimates Murray Watt accused the Coalition of pork barrelling when the APVMA was moved to Armidale. Given the APVMA serves regional Australia why shouldn’t it be in regional Australia?

In recent decades has been a lot of arguing over the rate of emissions but I have seen very few people actually question the quality of the measurements.
What has Aboriginal culture got to do with building railway lines?
Why does the government have to waste taxpayer money on appeasing activists every time they do something.
