At last some REAL FACTS in the energy debate, The COAG Heads of Government Meeting will be left in no doubt. Renewable energy KILLS!
For years now “we’ at pcbycp have been hard at it trying to get to the bottom of the energy conundrum. We know that empirical scientific evidence is bunk and there has to be a real reason for escalating energy price rises. We also know it has nothing to do with playing at economic lasseiz faire polices and handing over all responsibility of energy policy to private enterprise. We also know that the energy crisis has nothing to do with the ideological war on renewables waged by Tony Abbott, and the ultra right loonies from the back bench. I simple terms the truth has come out. Renewables kill!
And the truth comes via Craig Kelly, he’s no scientist, but what does with figures is nothing short of astounding.
Craig Kelly says people will not use heating in winter because of price of power
He’s blamed rising power costs on renewable energy target. Craig should know cos he’s chairman of the Coalition’s backbench Energy and Environment Committee.
Thats it folks he’s Chairman.
In Craig’s own words:(from the ABC’s Fake News)
“We’ve seen reports only recently that one-in-four Australian households this winter will be frightened to turn the heater on because of the price of electricity.
“We also know that the World Health Organisation has made it very clear that you increase winter mortality, that is you have more people dying in winter, if they cannot afford to heat their home.”
Mr Kelly is blaming rising power prices on the Government’s renewable energy target.
“There are $3 billion this year being paid in subsidies for renewable energy, that pushes up the price of electricity to the consumer,”
Ad he’s dead right. We are seriously worried about the direction this government is going. If they give into the Finkels’ of this world there is nothing that lobbyists can do The truth is incontrovertible. Renewables pay nothing to backbenchers.
And Craig has got a point. WE as taxpayers don’t mind giving huge subsidies to the coal lobby. We’ll even offer to lend a bloke from overseas, who doesn’t pay tax here a one billion dollar loan to build a train track, cos he’s a really nice bloke, and his holiday house is fan bloody-tastic.
But, as Craig said the other day; ‘No renewable has ever given us tickets to the grand final, hotels paid for, and big kickbacks on favourable planning decisions. The coal lobby and in saying this I’m talking about my friends in the Minerals and Energy Council look after blokes like us. Anything from the Greenies, the renewables, the pinko, lefty wankers? Not a zac.
You think politics are not listening to the people?
You think we’re out of touch?
Well think again?
We don’t get paid enough as politicians to look after the interests of the general public. And Why?. Cos we’ve gone Soft- cock on renewables. And, that’s selling our mates Short. That’s why. And as me mate Matt said, “forget about saving the planet, just give a few mates some jobs”,
And he’s dead right.
