Australia has plenty of Oz sourced fossile fuels and nothing even remotely like nice cheap energy costs and has had to impose caps on the fossil fuel prices.

Have fun listing who they should have voted for instead.

The argument kind of falls apart on that last bit... who are you going to vote for that will pull their finger out, and build enough nukes?

Hasn't the latest round of elections in Oz resulted in leading politicians saying that they are going to stop using coal in favour of green generation?

Natural gas (domestic consumer) prices Russia $0.01 UK $0.10 OZ $0.07 Germany $0.21 France $0.12

Petrol Russia $3.20 UK $7.20 OZ $4.20 Germany $7.00 France $6.00

Electricity Russia $0.O8 UK $0.32 OZ $0.21 Germany $0.44 France $0.18

No. Albo, the new Labor PM has in fact been flagrantly dishonest about that. Prior to the election he ran around the coal mines telling the miners, mostly Labor voters, that Labor would not be stopping coal mining. But made sure that no media was there when he said that to them.

The election doubled the number of Greens MPs elected and unusually for us, to the lower house which decides policy and then he waffled on about green stuff given that clearly quite a few of the voters are into green s*it.

No concrete green policy tho, just some waffle about carbon neutral by some date plucked out of the air.

The link is so f***ed I can't even see what units he is using. We pay 2.8c/MJ

In fact our domestic consumer prices for gas have increased substantially and looked like increasing even more with the gas producers taking advantage of the russian cuts in export gas to rake in massive profits.

Not clear what that number is for.

That number is bullshit. I am paying 28c and chose them because they are the cheapest.

And you can't ignore the daily fixed access charge, $1.60 per day, 33% of my total bill.

Even how comprehensively he f***ed up out electricity and gas prices prices, the prices for other countrys needs checking.

And has our prices wrong.

Yep, you are confirming that that figure is correct

and 28c Australian is what in USD?

The world doesn't use Australian dollars to trade in gas/petrol.

Where are you getting the units he is using from ?

But you can't ignore the standing charge which in my case is a third of the electricity bill,

He still stuffed up by ignoring the standing daily charge.

And petrol is irrelevant given that so much of it is tax in western europe particularly.

His table is mostly bullshit.

How does that work? Are you saying that politicians all have crystal balls? As Peter Sellers did it in his old recording party political speech. Let me say just this, I do not consider the current situation likely. Brian

I never knew you were pro-Russia. The only way to continue with cheap gas is to accept Russia's invasion Ukraine.

Who'd have known it, we have a Russian sympathiser in this group.
