WIND DIES, VIC AND SA PAY
The wind dies and South Australia once more pays, greedy for the imported coal-fired power its leaders foolishly claimed was destroying the planet. Earlier today the wind died to produce zero power. Check how little power was generated in Victoria and South Australia near lunchtime.
You have to be amused at Bolt's efforts to try to convince us that the world now regrets wind power and all those generators in the seas off Holland and other countries. The problem while Bolt is generating negative power on wind the world is running positively on it and are increasing their wind farms without subsidies. However, they mustn't read Andrew Bolt?
There is no word of blackouts from conservative sping doctor is there just a load of hot wind.
Andrew Bolt's Great Communicator
TURNBULL'S CHEER SQUAD #1: 'COMMUNICATION SKILLS'
Let's start holding people to account as Malcolm Turnbull hurtles to his 30th losing Newspoll next week - behind Labor for 18 months. On the day Turnbull took the Prime Ministership I wrote: "He stole it by boasting of superior communication skills he does not have." Here's some of those who praised what turned out to be his great weakness.
Criticism coming from Andrew Bolt our most famous Indigenous communicator according to Andrew Bolt whose popularity is huge off a small base has dignified us on his review of our PM communication skills. What he leaves out is the yardstick he was being compared to at the time and that was the great Mr Canadia himself Tony Abbott whose the 28 seconds of silence went around the world making him the worlds worst OECD leader. Bolt himself was laughed at by Jim Bolger ex NZ Conservative PM when he tried to communicate his thoughts on Indigeneity. Bolger laughed and left Bolt in silence like a child who'd embarrassed themselves. Communication just isn't Bolt's world of expertise.
Abbott's method of operation :
1) Steal the Monash name and treat the family like doormats don't bother asking about using it.
2) Ignore the world and Science altogether and assume you can deny warming with Murdoch on side and that Australians merely have a hip pocket conscience and no memory for the lies and broken promises of Abbott's last election which by the way he didn't win Labour Lost
3) Marry Immigration with Infrastructure don't do anything about infrastructure which Abbott is an expert on just talk about it and you create yourself a political issue of overcrowding. Then blame Immigration for doing nothing. It's easy when you know how just forget Australia.

Now here is a bit of Chicken Little fear-mongering reminds me of when Abbott was in opposition telling us the sky was falling in yet we actually had the best economy in the world and Wayne Swann was voted the world best treasurer. Bolt's "exclusive analysis" unnamed is just a PAYWALL to the AUSTRALIAN a News Free zone.
"A new Greens proposal for the government to pay welfare to all Australians would more than double the social security bill, smash the incentive to work and force the top marginal tax rate up to 78 percent, according to exclusive analysis."Bolt
By the way, after a year of doing nothing and not passing any bills, Abbott and Hockey said they'd fixed the budget. That's all it took.
THE ABC'S DYLAN VOLLER AGAIN
Does the ABC take any responsibility after deceptively turning Voller from offender into hero-victim?: "Three people have been charged after a violent confrontation ... as indigenous protesters tried to force their way into the Games Opening Ceremony. A 20-year-old Northern Territory former youth detainee Dylan Voller was charged."
22m
" Some protesters said “don’t shoot, don’t shoot” as they struggled with police who tried to subdue them."Reported
"Pathetic, borrowing a fake claim from the US to make them look more heroic and the police as the real lawbreakers:" Bolt
As for Dylan logic would dictate that after the treatment he experienced in Don Dale if he weren't an activist today then things would be abnormal. Bolt, on the other hand, is abnormal because his only defence these days is the Trump defence "Fake News"
AUSTRALIAN APARTHEID
Column Are we mad? The Left is crying for South African anti-apartheid crusader Winnie Mandela at the same time it’s importing apartheid to Australia. The politics of race doesn’t get crazier than this. Mandela was actually the evil she condemned - and now the evil of apartheid is pushed here by both sides of politics. Check this list.

KNOCK, KNOCK, SCOTT MORRISON
Why does Morrison bag the sort of policy that might help the Liberals win the next election?: "Tony Abbott has backed the immediate replacement of ageing coal-fired power plants with new ones and taken a swipe at Scott Morrison after the Treasurer slapped down the demands of a new pro-coal group within the Coalition." Terry McCrann whacks back.

Protecting ABBOTT at all costs over and above science good sense and world progress. The planet is warming and CO2 is warming it. The street is on fire and Bolt sees no sense to turn on a hose because "me" is greater than "we".Look what Abbott's MXT NBN has done for us helped put us in reverse.
ABBOTT HATERS DEAF TO GOOD ADVICE
Column Tony Abbott’s critics are right. He’s pushing this plan for more coal-fired electricity knowing it will hurt Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull. But Abbott’s critics are wrong. That doesn’t make his plan bad. Yet it’s precisely because Abbott thought of better policies first, that Turnbull and his team reject what could save them.

By 2030 65% of Australia's aging coal-fired plants will be over 40 years old and totally unroadworthy. Building or restoring a rust bucket to a shiny new FJ Holden might be an act of nostalgia but it will still be a fossil fuel guzzler spewing CO2. It won't be producing efficient energy or spinning its wheels via clean electricity just dirty fuel. In fact, Bolt can't name a single coal plant on the planet that does that now produce clean electricity. The very notion of cleanER coal by 2-5% might be truly filtered but is still dirty energy compared to renewables. There is no alchemy and if there were it would cost.
. Remember when Abbott promised a better Internet system with patchworked fixed MXT to the node technology. It's turned out to be a white elephant the FJ and it's put us 50th or 60th on the world ladder. He thought it was just an entertainment toy. It was his vision we couldn't afford the luxury which in less than decade is now a necessity. Abbott's approach to problem-solving policies for Australia has put us going reverse globally and Mr Nope Nope Nope is a shoo-in to keep trying to do that again. When he was PM and anyone in his party went Knock Knock on his door they had to get an appointment with Credlin first. There was no lunching and planning in the Monkey Pod Room in those days he was in the driver's seat and going flat chat in reverse. He almost broke new records of other Liberal PMs in doing nothing and not passing bills. Abbott was waving but not drowning then going nowhere.
Bolt kept promising he'd changed, he'd changed so much so even he shut up because he looked the fool. But he's back doing it now.You see Bolt relies on the fact Australians don't actually make global comparisons if they did they'd see just how far we are lagging behind on just about every front. Conservatives try to sell us that we are ahead of the world because we aren't facing the problems of other countries when in fact we are not even catching up. Our great economy is in fact among the worst on the OECD ladder. Bolt has however managed to raise Islamophobia up from 9% to 30% News Corp printed 2,850 Islamophobic articles in the past 12 months. They're doing the same for African Christian immigrants, Bolt's been on about Aboriginal Culture too as being the cause of child molestation despite Royal Commissions and the committal hearing of Pell and the arrest of 19 white folks arrested on child pornography charges. Yes, we are ahead and would be even more if only Abbott were back. What an unprecedented load of BS presented as News. Peter Foster our greatest con man was jailed for less. Bolt's been found guilty of "Fake News" yet News Corp can continue to publish it.
Recently Bolt mocked Julia Baird told us Aborigines were culturally predisposed to child molestation while failing to mention they are in the main practising Christians unlike him. How dare Baird say Christians are predisposed to domestic violence and dysfunction. The man is a fool
