PRIME Minister Scott Morrison and angry trade unions have simultaneously moved to expose Anthony Albanese’s climate double-talk, as a senior MP threatens to quit the green-obsessed ALP. While “climate emergency” MPs pretended Saturday’s by-election thumping had nothing to do with climate politics, their union paymasters are saying otherwise – and PM Morrison is capitalising on the turmoil.
FEDERAL Finance Minister Simon Birmingham is circumspect on the national implications of last weekend’s NSW by-election in the coal-rich mining region of Upper Hunter, north of Sydney. The by-election was watched closely by major political parties keen to see how popular support for the incumbent NSW government was tracking, particularly considering its handling of COVID-19 and recent sexual assault allegations against several MPs including retiring Upper Hunter MP Michael Johnsen.
MALCOLM Turnbull’s all-in support for radical environmentalist Kirsty O’Connell in yesterday’s Upper Hunter by-election has helped deliver victory for the NSW Coalition government. Prior to the former prime minister throwing his cash and support behind the green independent, Premier Gladys Berejiklian had publicly stated the Coalition would most likely lose the seat – tipping her into minority government.
NSW Finance Minister Damien Tudehope has told voters to disregard Energy Minister Matt Kean’s “thought bubbles” on energy policy. In a bruising interview on Sky News’ Alan Jones show last night, Mr Tudehope said Mr Kean’s “musings” had no link to reality.
CLIMATE alarmism is nothing more than an “imagined” threat created by far Left activists to wrestle control of Australia’s political and economic direction. By using carefully crafted talking points, GetUp has partnered with Liberal, Labor and Greens renewables pedlars to frighten otherwise sensible Australians with a fictional doomsday scenario.
MALCOLM Turnbull is cheering for a green-leaning independent to push the Berejiklian government into minority as he again betrays his own Party. Weeks out from this month’s crucial Upper Hunter by-election, the former Liberal Party prime minister is full-tilt behind fellow climate extremist and former journalist Kirsty O’Connell. The by-election is scheduled for May 22.
GRASSROOTS Liberal Party members have pleaded for Prime Minister Scott Morrison to follow China’s lead if his government does decide to set emissions targets. With the Party wracked with conflicting carbon emissions goals – and WA & NSW divisions effectively going rogue – Party members have called for a return to a sensible and unified approach.
CLIMATE “emergencies” have nothing to do with science and everything to do with political control, according to three of the world’s leading climate scientists. Climatology professor David Legates, astrophysicist Willie Soon and agricultural climatologist Patrick Michaels said the world wouldn’t end by 2030, despite what scare mongers were saying.
BY FULLY buying into Kevin Rudd’s “great moral challenge” scare, the Liberal Party has become increasingly sidelined as a radical green movement – while Labor pivots away from extreme environmentalism. With Liberals, particularly in NSW and WA, squabbling over how fast they can eliminate baseload power – alienating millions of voters while doing so – Labor has outwitted them, throwing its support behind traditional energy.
THE High Court will soon have the opportunity of demonstrating that traditional academic freedom and freedom of expression are still alive in Australia. The decision they hand down in Peter Ridd v James Cook University will rank in importance with the Court’s unanimous decision concerning Cardinal Pell, reaffirming the presumption of innocence and that guilt be proved beyond reasonable doubt.
