Australia, especially in the State of South Australia, is becoming a world leader in renewable energy use – particularly in decentralised household rooftop solar, but also in large solar and wind programmes. Of course, Australia’s mining magnates are pretty happy with Dutton’s plan, as it will mean more mining, not just of uranium, but of coal and gas in the decades before nuclear power actually comes into use.

If Dutton carries this through, as Prime Minister, he will rapidly gain world fame.

But also, as far as Australia is concerned, he could beat Scott Morrison into history as the nation’s worst Prime Minister.

Dutton’s big risk is that he might not get elected in 2025, and vanish very quickly from history.

Summary

Australia’s representative democracy has significant room for improvement. By implementing direct democracy mechanisms, reforming the NACC, and using monetary sovereignty, Australia can create a more inclusive political system. Citizens must advocate for these changes to build a democracy that genuinely reflects their will and serves their interests.
