Morrison and Frydenberg were electioneering and telling us we were the best. We had "Great Fundamentals". We’re not and haven't! We don’t manufacture anymore not even our own cars since Abbott closed that down. Morrison wants us to be an “arms” manufacturer and the world’s biggest fossil fuel exporter. "We don't have to be scared of coal" he cried in parliament. Mining took us up those 3 notches. All of which spells the death of the planet and the environment. Maybe Australia needs to lift its game and become less competitive in terms of old standards and find new ones to judge itself on.
We are a resource-rich nation like no other of sun, wind, and oceans and have the potential to be less destructive to our flora fauna land and planet on which we rely. We need to become a 23rd-century Indigenous nation.
Frydenbergs “Great Fundamentals"
Australia’s strong trade performance and pandemic recovery has elevated the nation’s international competitiveness by three spots to 19th in a global survey of 63 countries.

Morrison is already playing the salesman and shifting blame away from himself in Trump-like fashion never admitting he was his own dead weight. The Edsel in 2022. But then is he better or worse than Dutton? Morrison has after all the Pentecostalists who are fully immersed in politics since Howard enticed them and their money to the Party and unleashed the culture wars. Dutton has only the Monkey Pod room with Hastie and Credlin seeing the light of opportunity.
But Dutton will have to get used to the fact the new government – not the Coalition – now has the allure and prestige of power. There’s only so much tub-thumping he can do without looking isolated and pitiable.
It’s been called the worst job in politics. Can Peter Dutton buck the trend?

With 80 per cent of Australia’s gas being exported out of the country, households and businesses are experiencing price shock with “apocalyptic” rises in energy prices nationwide.
The Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) has been forced to step in and cap gas prices in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane to $40 per gigajoule, but it is still...
