I caught a bit of a radio show today. They were dead wrong about why electricity and energy prices are high and I feel a responsibility to set the record straight.
A very short and digestible thread.

This father who is surrounded happily by his children has been sentenced to death.
His crime is participating in a peaceful protest as was Navid Afkari’s. For Navid the international community acted late. Take an action fir #Abbas_Deris

New report by @D_AccessEcon shows making low-income homes more #energyefficient not only creates tens of thousands of jobs and adds $billions to our economy - it significantly cuts energy costs. #FairFastClimateAction #auspol

[Tim Buckley @TimBuckleyCEF]

This paper concludes the economic cost of addressing climate change are maximised by going slowly & procrastinating. This point has been repeatedly missed by @ScottMorrisonMP & @joshfrydenberg.
Lets hope @ChrisBowen & @AlboMP get to grab the huge investment opportunities for 🇦🇺!

We know mould is bad for your health, but so much remains hidden.

This year we're researching how to find and measure mould in Australia, and we'll be advocating for action to remediate homes.

Nobody should have to live in a mouldy home.

Remind me. What did Tony Abbott say in 2013? 'No cuts to the ABC or SBS'. ... So what happened? ... 'ABC loses $783m funding since 2014 when Coalition made its first cuts – report' https://t.co/OI3OxxbtFG

I don’t think they understand the magnitude of the problem. A $50b industry dependent on gatherings is shut down. Its workers are largely ineligible for the wage subsidy. And this is the response? Live sector asks for $850m, gets $27m #auspol #arts https://t.co/ZBk3FAAqod

[Australian Unions @unionsaustralia]

Today Australian Unions won a wage subsidy to save jobs. The Morrison Government heard our call and the voices of the millions of working people. Three weeks ago the government wouldn't even consider the idea of a wage subsidy.

Remember, we’re stronger together. Join your union.

[MEAA @withMEAA]

This is incredibly disappointing for workers in the performing arts and entertainment industries, many of whom are already on the economic margins as a result of intermittent work and relatively low levels of income security and limited if any access to paid leave entitlements.

Please retweet this as Lindy has summarised the frustration & despair felt by so many hit by the bushfires in the face of lies & false promises from this despicable @ScottMorrisonMP LNP excuse for a government. Thanks. #auspol

Lindy Marshall asked me to use her name & post her comments on Twitter. Lindy's house in Verona (Part of the Cobargo neighbourhood) was destroyed in the recent fires. She now lives in what was left of her garage with her four rescue dogs. Lindy is NOT a quiet Australian. Pls RT.
