Tom McLoughlin Tuesday, 13 May 2008 1:14:45 PM: An industry insider dishes the economic dirt on Keating's false premise about a so called national market for energy based on price comparisons on the "pool price" at least that's the claim as reported here: http://www.sydneyalternativemedia.com/blog/index.blog/1811970/energy-industry-whistleblower-evidence-of-a-national-market-has-largely-disappeared/ I broadcast this late last week to all state MPs, or most on the list anyway. Also Wentworth Courier already showed Debnam, ALP Left Pearce and John Robertson 'in bed' page 1 late April edition. Fact is the spiv Labor have studied where the profit centres are, and gone for the buckets of money to self enrich. Sure they dress it up as public interest policy but like any "rotten" system the bogus becomes truth, the lie become fact, the "joke" becomes reality. Just like Joh's developer mates and money politics. It's all about a $5B truck tunnel and juicy construction contracts and f*ck the public interest, or sound planning. Selfish Iemma?
Phil Tuesday, 13 May 2008 10:30:50 AM: Lee Rhiannon, John Robertson and Peter Debnam shoulder to shoulder. That's a sight I never thought I'd see.
Richard McGuire Monday, 12 May 2008 4:11:44 PM: Can this mean that it is possible ,for people ,other than out of touch, unrepresentative union heavies, to oppose the privatisation of essential services like electricity?
