Debate on national energy policy is even worse than Rudd, Gillard years, says senior NSW Liberal
A decade after Kevin Rudd was ousted as Prime Minister over his failed emissions trading scheme, Australia is still without a clear policy and it is discouraging investment

DID MUHAMMED REALLY DICTATE THE KORAN?
NEW BOOK Linguist Mark Durie has written a brilliant book: The Qu'ran and its Biblical Reflexes. No, the Koran was not written when, where and how Muslims believe. Its dialect, its place names and carbon dating of earliest copies suggest it may not even by the creation of Muhammed, and its God isn't the Christian's. Here's my interview with Durie.
Durie's book is meticulously researched and footnoted, and been praised already by scholars in Australia and abroad." Bolt What stands out here is that no reference is supplied by Bolt of any high praisers other than his own for this book. It's not an uncommon a habit of Bolt's to place himself in the position of being the expert and praiser sometimes the only one for the purpose of raising and promote money for these people.
However, the point to be made is that doubts about the Christian Bible by"experts" also abound but they aren't written by Muslims but generally by Christians themselves whose motivations aren't as suspect as the Christians like Drurie who claim to be experts on Islam but turn out to be members or closely associated with political groups like the ACL, Who write for Islamophobic publications like The Spectator and gets praised by media that support these groups and their politics like News Corp and it's well-known Islamophobe Andrew Bolt. The best that can be said of Drurie is if he lies down with dogs he will get fleas not "high praise"
Where is this "high praise" Bolt speaks of but doesn't mention?
LIBERALS CANNOT WIN BY CRINGEING ON CLIMATE
GUTLESS Paul Kelly: "The Morrison government faces a revolt of ... a section of the middle class that is moralistic about climate change... The government, befitting its pragmatic nature, must act. [It] is planning to pump more money into the Emissions Reduction Fund." But this revolt is driven by unreason faith, so how can pragmatic concessions help?
PAYWALL
The very thing tearing the liberals apart CRINGING = When the majority of the Liberal party listen to the electorate and won't do what the minority wants. They then do what most thugs do for attention and start yelling GUTLESS, and threatening that party majority and the electorate with FEAR of loss in the hope of gaining some paltry votes why?
These Neocons seem to believe that even if they lose they will have won over the party in opposition and if they win they can declare they were the winning persuaders the edge in the game of politics that saved everyone from the brink.
Meanwhile, the evidence for a warming planet and extreme weather conditions is growing by the day. But the denials are louder and get more media attention than the science and have greater
financial backing so politics outplays any logic, reason, epistemology or pragmatism.
FAINE NOT SORRY FOR SMEARING PHOTOGRAPHER
Jon Faine is one of the most biased of the ABC presenters, and that says something. And he's shameless: "Faine and the broadcaster’s management have refused for a second day to apologise for a false allegation ... that [Herald Sun] photographer Jake Nowakowski had 'set up' a picture involving teenage vigilantes near Wyndham Vale rail station".
False, and Faine - so often so quick to deflect discussion of the shocking rate of African crime in Melbourne - never offered the slightest evidence to back up his claim." Bolt
Bolt almost trips over himself eager to remind us of African crime conveniently ignoring the white reality taking place in his own blog post and the racist nature of the reporting of what was taking place.
" While the award-winning photographer was taking shots an incident unfolded in which members of a Caucasian group with baseball bats were involved in a stand-off with an African-Australian group." Herald Sun
A pro-white paper interviewing white victims imagine if the ABC was there interviewing black victims what Bolt's response would be? You never find News Corp interviewing black victims only white. Readily talking about all Africans as black perps or at best doubtful, "deplorables", never really reporting white youth crime as a problem or their involvement in gang violence. Bolt has even got his jollies off laughing at the idea of a black beauty pageant and says he's not a white bogan because that's an example of how he's polite and mannered.
But then that's not Bolt's agenda his is to jump on ABC's error and make out it's purposeful and an intended biased strategy just as his is. The problem Bolt can't live without the ABC the ABC pays him notice and that sticks in his throat. What would he do without the ABC?
IS BANKS JUST A STOOGE FOR TURNBULL'S REVENGE?
CONSPIRACY THEORY Revenge against one of the Ministers who votes against Malcolm Turnbull: "Malcolm Turnbull’s son Alex has admitted he was 'involved' in a bombshell campaign by Julia Banks to unseat Greg Hunt... But he denied his father was also involved." He would say that, wouldn't he? And how telling that Banks, a fervent Turnbull acolyte, is involved.
Bolt shows us he's a bitch basher simply because he doesn't seem to believe Julia Banks was and still is her own master. She was never bullied according to Bolt just couldn't play the art of politics. When she did she called a traitor yet when Kelly threatened the party with doing a Banks he was called smart. Bolt swings like a dunny door in the wind.
However, he can't stop there and goes to the misogynist position she couldn't have done it without a man and that had to be Malcolm Turnbull and his son. Bollocks, the Mornington Peninsula is changing and Greg Hunt declared himself and Abbott/Dutton man when push came to shove changing his image in the Labor State of Victoria. So why shouldn't Banks see her self counter balancing Hunt with being a far less partisan candidate for the seat that's not what it used to be?
In the last post, Faine noted something suspicious going on and was kicked by Bolt and here is Bolt doing the same thing.
Hunt was and did become Dutton's Wingman an accurate description. The fact that others in the Liberal Party believe in Climate Change is nothing new now that their jobs are at stake they are openly coming out they aren't blind idiots playing politics they are polling and listening to their electorates.
Yes, Bolt even admits to being a conspiracy theorist but he demands the leeway but refuses the same if the ABC raise suspicions. Two faced as a Dutchman saying it's his shout next round.
NO, WOMEN ALSO LIE
What #MeToo forgets Guardian columnist Suzanne Moore was among many who insisted on believing dodgy claims against Brett Kavanaugh: "Many of us believe women who speak out about sexual assault and rape." Today a reminder that even women lie: "A fake crime scene, a false rape report, a man behind bars. How did Sarah Jane Parkinson get away with so much for so long?"
WHEN SOME CRUELTY IS BEST NOT MENTIONED
More than 2000 sheep die on a ship caught in a heat wave. It triggers mass coverage, an ABC special and protests. The Greens call for a ban on live export. But response to this scandal is very muted: "The number of dead cattle on a remote Western Australia property is expected to double to 2,000." Check which property and you'll understand.
