Australia's total climate change failure - Waleed Aly, The Project


Australia ranks 57th in the world on climate change performance, or just one away from being stone cold last. The Lieberal smoke and mirrors over climate change is just window dressing to make it look like they're doing something, when the fact is that many of the Canberra party still don't believe climate change exists. Indeed they've been dragged kicking and screaming to do even the token gesture that their present action is.

This is the same party that repealed the carbon tax; a revenue raising tax that was working very well to reduce carbon emissions by Australia. Now that they've "axed the tax" they have the gall to cry at the moon about the budget bottom line, expecting us to go along with them on that (again). Yes folks, now there's Turnbull's "budget emergency", one that happens to be real but at the hands of Lieberal mismanagement.

This whilst the Lieberals refused to phase out fossil fuel subsidies as requested in Paris, and continue to spend a staggering amount of $billions on it. Yet they still have the nerve to say things like health are facing some budget crisis in the future. *pfffft*

Like I've said before, I'm sick to death of the Lieberals blaming people like me unfortunate enough to have to survive on a DSP pittance for their budget woes, when it's actually their own priorities and mismanagement that is the problem.
