Mateship and Fossils. Herald Australia’s SPACE AGE!
Dear reader, we agree it’s hard keeping track of just what’s gonna happen next in Canberra. Almost impossible to predict what far reaching fragment of super intelligence will trickle down to us, the average voter. Well the good news is that COAL, good ol “King Coal” is back on the agenda.
Now before you push away your Weetbix and say, “this just can’t be”, we need to tell you that minds immeasurably superior to ours have been hard at it convincing the P.M and a couple of recalcitrant front benchers that the policy directive this country needs is MORE COAL!.
And you may be shocked. You may pound the table and say. “MORE COAL”?..
“How could this be”?
Kelly to Abbott.’And we’ll get the taxpayer to foot the bill, whilst we do an Andrew Robb and piss off to China”. Abbott to Kelly; “You fuckin Bewdy!”
“Isn’t COAL amongst other burnable things one of the most causatory elementals tied to the existential dillemna of global warming? The one that the former greatest PM ever, Kevin Rudd, decried as being of our time? Isn’t COAL rotten! Rotten to the core of its blackness! And isn’t it true that not even bankers and mum and dad investors will go near the stuff nowadays. Aint COAL a stranded assett? Aint the cost of renewables and battery storage and NEW Technology rendered COAL dead? Aint COAL a bastard child unwrought from the Industrial Revolution?
Yes you may be right.
But Tony Abbott and Craig Kelly, (“Ol King Cole” we call him) are all for COAL. And though no bank will touch it, they reckon it’s time we the taxpayer subsidised new dirty inefficient coal power plants.
In spite of all the evidence, they wanna give coal the tick, and give the Great Barrier Reef, the Murray Darling Basin, ecosystems, Antartcia and all biota the flick. They’re in for the short term. Ecology and the world greatest living organism don’t fit into a three year cycle. And besides, they aint God ordained.
But there is a reason. You’d think that successive governments had defunded reseach and technical expertise to the bone, but from the vastess of the Carmichael Basin the future of science beckons.
Australlia, this Sunday, is launching its own re- booted Space Race Two.
Our First Space Race looked like this.
We’re in it for good this time. There’s billions to be made out of space. And just to show we’re fair dinkum about it, we’re gonna set up a Space Agency, a Space Institute and we’ve got the space to do it.
And here’s the best part. You may think that COAL is killing the planet. Well, that and the Neo liberal experiment. But what’s gonna power these new interplanetary rocket ships? What fuel will be used to blast those proudly locally made space craft into the oblivion? And what will guide us to find new planetary systems and whatever pasess for civilisation out there in the cosmos? So we can fuck it up!!
The Bradman. Out there beyond Uranus, searching for planets rich in COAL!
You guessed it Australia’s, fleet of rockets will be COAL POWERED!
Coal Power will drive this country’s destiny to infinity and beyond. Cos, it’s unquestionable. Coal, is good for humanity. It’s a way forward. And its a long term reliable and proven way of fucking up ecosystems anywhere.
Watch this space as we present to you, (secreted from the drawing board of the Australian space agency’s design drawer) the blueprint for our first rocket . To be launched from Woomera in 2025.
“The Bradman”.
The Future is ours. In Coal we trust.
