Re: Easy pop shots at OZ labor Govt.

I watch and listen to comments and news from both sides of politics and I do like the idea of nuke power maybe possible in OZ.

Re: Easy pop shots at OZ labor Govt.

Given China’s vested interest in the Australian Wine Industry, the decision by Chinese authorities to recant the restrictions on Oz wine is more about promoting their own interests. If that is the case, why did the Chinese government impose the crippling tariffs in the first place? Perhaps JS you c...

Re: Easy pop shots at OZ labor Govt.

AEMO independent of government? No true and a silly statement. They have a more than 50% ownership by govt. The board of the CSIRO is appointed by the Governor general who is in turn appointed by an individual on advice from the Prime Minister. Don't sound independent from government to me. They mus...

Re: Easy pop shots at OZ labor Govt.

Yes Sport, nuclear power should be a feasible option in Australia, it appears the only group, the liberals, are trying to place the thought into the arena and open the dialogue on how we can achieve this. Head in the sand Bowen is hell bent on not listening and rushing to destroy the countryside tha...

Re: Big increase in air fares

Its obvious that flight prices have gone up considerably, I just purchased a UT to Chang Mai return for 5,500, I think that expensive? But what is the reasoning for price hikes behind all this? Just look at Thai air for instance, I've been traveling the UT BKK route for many many years usually for w...

Forget talk of the popular term or buzzword climate change or whatever it will morph into next. Don't worry folks the barrier reef will bounce back, it always has. And coral reefs will just move and establish elsewhere. It's been proven time and time again. https://www.sydney.edu.au/news-opinion/new...
