Two years ago, few would have thought Peter Dutton would go to the next election without a 2030 climate target. So what’s changed?

Who the fuck were they asking? It’s bloody obvious to me. He’s the hard right of the right-wing party. He’s never given a shit about climate, why would anyone think that would change?
I guess we made the mistake of thinking he’d want to win government at some point.
Genuinely, I don’t think anyone has any expectations he will. I think the Liberal Party installed him to be an effective attack dog in opposition, with the plan of replacing him before the 2028 election, because they’ve already written off 2025.
He reminds voters of Anthony Albanese’s promised $275 reduction in power bills, which is yet to be delivered: “How much higher will your electricity prices go under this prime minister?”
I don’t remember prices ever being cheaper under the coalition and I doubt spending billions on nuclear power would bring them down. Not to mention those plants would probably get on-sold to one of Duttons mates for pennies and then rape the energy market for profits.
All this to say: I’m glad I invested in home solar years ago and I’m glad I could finally afford a home battery. I’m just sorry for people who cannot afford or who are unable to do so.
dude shot himself in the foot, but the F’ed thing is that regional boomers dont give a shit and will still vote for him anyway. Our only hope now is Harry and Hermione pull the finger out and finish the job.
Poor Ron gets forgotten yet again :(
dude buggered off for half the hunt. Just cause they wont doesnt mean they get to re-write history.
It’s important to remember that Dutton isn’t very bright. Dumb and dangerous.
