Let's just get the facts right on this Eraring Power Station malarkey between @David_Speers and @PennySharpemlc. Does AEMO say the lights will go out when it closes in 2025? No. The reliability standard of 99.998% is forecast to be met in FY26 and FY27. #NSWvotes

Like I always say with content moderation, every social media site owner who is “pro free speech” meets their line eventually.
For 4chan, it was anime child porn. For Facebook and YouTube, it was white nationalist terror. For Elon, it was people making fun of him.
Worth reminding @VictorianLabor that buses, or more precisely extra bus services, are great for job creation. These are ongoing sustained jobs, not temporary construction one-offs. Also big potential for SRL SmartBuses every 10 min to bring forward SRL's benefits. #springst
