Great to catch up with my friend Chrissie Morrisey at @6PR this morning to talk about #uranium mining and the need for policy change in Western Australia! $CXU
Good morning all,
On the weekend I joined @6PR weekends with @ChrissyMorrissy to discuss why its so important that the #uranium mining ban is overturned in #westernaustralia.
Audio attached! $CXU
PLS REPOST!
Boom!💥📈⚛️🏗️🌏 World #Nuclear Association now reports 441 operable reactors (404GW)⚡️ a record high of 80 under construction (87GW)👷 with 123 advancing in the planned/approved for construction pipeline (112GW)✅ plus 336 more proposed!(299GW)🤯🤠🐂 #Uranium#EnergySecurity 🌊🏄
Indonesia is accelerating nuclear power right on Australia's doorstep. Australia needs to catch up fast!
As regional demand surges, top performing uranium play $CXU ($CAULF) shows massive potential to lead the next wave of energy growth. ⚛️🚀
@kwok_phil@easya_labs no pressure mate….. but no holds barred!! The entire crypto world has your back and we are all pushing you in to the fight for us 🤛
@xrpmickle@HawleyMO If you are so concerned for them maybe you should have spent more time gettin g educated about the subject... and maybe told them to invest a couple of grand in XRP and they'll never need loans again..... so is it the farmers you are concerned about or the banks?
LONDON HAS FALLEN
It’s taken me a week to write this because I needed time to reflect on what I saw.
For the last couple of years I’ve watched what has been happening across Britain, Europe and other parts of the world. I followed the arguments about mass migration, integration and national identity and heard people say their communities had changed beyond recognition.
I thought I understood it.
I didn’t. Not until I saw it firsthand.
I’ve just returned from travelling through London, other parts of England and Wales. I walked the streets, caught Ubers, visited shops and spoke with people from completely different backgrounds.
One conversation really stayed with me.
An Uber driver who migrated to Britain around 20 years ago told me he was concerned about the scale of migration and the loss of the England he had come to know.
Think about that.
Here was a migrant who had made Britain home, integrated, built a life and contributed, now concerned about whether the country he embraced was losing its identity.
That is the distinction we need to understand.
I have friends in Australia from all over the world who came here genuinely wanting to build a better life, raise families, contribute and become part of the country they now call home.
That is immigration working.
But London shocked me.
Street after street, shop after shop, I saw cultures, languages and religions from across the world. Even in tourist areas selling traditional British memorabilia, I consistently encountered people serving customers who could barely communicate in English.
Outside parts of London and through Wales, the contrast could be striking.
It left me asking:
At what point does immigration stop adding to a country’s culture and begin overwhelming its ability to integrate people into a shared national identity?
No country can grow its population faster than its ability to provide housing, hospitals, schools and infrastructure while assuming integration will simply take care of itself.
And if those common bonds are eventually lost, how do you wind that back?
More importantly, how do you address it without unfairly sweeping up the very migrants who came, integrated, contributed and embraced their new country?
That is the tragedy of getting immigration policy wrong.
This isn’t about skin colour, religion or birthplace. People shouldn’t have to erase their heritage to become Australian.
But Australia shouldn’t have to erase itself either.
A nation is more than buildings and borders. It is shared language, history, customs, institutions, values and a sense that despite where we came from, we now belong to something together.
London’s magnificent buildings haven’t fallen. Big Ben still stands. Buckingham Palace is still there.
But buildings don’t preserve a nation’s identity. People do.
I came home asking whether Australia is heading down the same road, and whether we are prepared to have this conversation before the question becomes:
How do we undo it, and is it too late?
Cold Hard Facts. Corrected when wrong. No misinformation.
What’s your thoughts…?

@JohnLyonsOk 13 years later, London had an underground. Primitive isn’t bad or been implied to be. Just a descriptive. Let’s face it we all work our asses off to get time to go bush and get primitive in our SUV’s and rooftop tents.
@mrcauliman i’d like to know how many of the wankers you guys call politician were short on crypto stock. What a joke. It all begins with voter accuracy and clearly the way voting influences politics in the US…. is not working
