AUSSIE FLATUS

I voted Labor for years and was a party member, now I know I was a fool. I am ashamed. . .

He's saying "brother, now is not the time. We have to keep using these useful idiots for a few more years before we play our hand."

I love the idea of free power from the sun, but not at the cost of our industries. We must keep coal burning as a reliable bridge while scaling renewables properly—otherwise, we'll rely on imports, potentially lose jobs like those at Tomago, and head down the path to unemployment and poverty. Australia's future depends on affordable, secure energy—not ideology.

@australian Labor government steals more money from taxpayers & electricity consumers to “save” a crucial aluminium smelter from closing due to the Uniparty’s expensive solar & wind generation electricity prices As usual, we the people pay For Uniparty energy lies

Australia’s green bank will write a loan of almost $1bn directly to Snowy Hydro in a departure from its funding habits that places the CEFC at the centre of a high-stakes rescue of Rio Tinto’s majority-owned smelter. The Clean Energy Finance Corp’s debt funding is designed to underwrite the delivery of cheap “firmed” renewable energy to the Tomago aluminium smelter, ensuring the Hunter Valley giant survives its 2028 energy contract cliff and union jobs are secured. bit.ly/41g1D1z

WAKE UP PEOPLE 😡

We need to start waking up people

Batteries Needs for Our Solar Grid. The amount of battery power Australia needs depends entirely on the "safety net" you want. If it's a grid that tries to run on 100% renewables during a "renewable drought" (weeks of low wind and cloud), then based on 2026 data from the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) and independent engineering audits, here are the numbers: 1. The "100% Renewable" Requirement (The 24-Day Rule) If you wanted to close every coal and gas plant and rely only on batteries to survive a worst-case weather event (a "Dunkelflaute" or renewable drought), the numbers become astronomical. The Storage Need: Engineering audits (2024–2026) suggest that to survive a 24-day period of low wind and sun, the Eastern Australian Grid would need roughly 12,000,000 MWh (12,000 GWh) of storage. The Comparison: That is equivalent to roughly 27,000 "Geelong Big Batteries" or 94,000 "Hornsdale Big Batteries." The Cost: At current 2026 prices, this would cost approximately $4.1 trillion USD, which is more than double Australia's entire annual GDP. 2. Summary Table: The Storage Gap Scenario Storage Req (GWh) Purpose 1. Current (March 2026) ~10–15 GWh (Combined) Freq control & 2-hour peaks 2. AEMO 2030 Target 56 GWh 82% Renewable grid support 3. AEMO 2050 Target 660 GWh Net Zero backup 4. 100% Renewable Only 12,000+ GWh Surviving 24 days without sun/wind The Verdict Most experts agree that using only batteries to keep the lights on is physically and economically impossible for a country the size of Australia. This is why almost all serious plans for the future include "Deep Storage" like Pumped Hydro (e.g., Snowy 2.0 or Borumba Dam) and fast-start gas generators to act as the ultimate insurance policy when the batteries run dry.

After generations warned of catastrophic sea-level rises, vanishing glaciers, and temperatures soaring 5°C, reality shows ~1.5°C warming so far, steady (not apocalyptic) glacier retreat, and gradual ~3–5 mm/yr sea-level rise. People feel lied to by exaggerated doom headlines, not the measured science. Time for honest risk discussions.

Morrison was on holiday when bushfires started. The MSM & Labor never let up on him. We have a fuel crisis in Australia. The energy minister is on a private jet flying to Turkey to talk about the next climate hoax conference. LNP & MSM . 🏏 🦗 🏏 🦗 🏏 🦗 🏏 🦗 🏏 🦗

#BREAKING Think that this is the Middle East? It’s Melbourne, Australia on Sunday afternoon. At this point, Anthony Albanese’s immigration policy must be questioned. #Auspol

As an ex-serviceman, I dread another war. With Trump escalating over Iran's Hormuz blockade, two paths: diplomacy to de-escalate, or limited naval support (e.g. frigate) to reopen the strait fast & secure our 80%+ fuel imports. No endless quagmire like Iraq/Afghan—any role must be tightly scoped & time-bound. A rogue Iran shouldn't have medium/long-range or nuclear missiles. Preventing that serves our interests. If the crisis deepens, we may need to reconsider for energy security & alliance credibility. Thoughts? #AusDef

Are we putting America in the doghouse for acting unilaterally? Sending a frigate to the Strait of Hormuz is in Australia's national interest - both for supply, and for our status as a US ally. Article | spectator.com.au/2026/03/why-we…

"Why don't we refine our own oil in Australia?" Cause we're a red tape nanny state.

The most bitter paradox of our time: Tehran is currently experiencing military strikes, yet the air is the cleanest it has been in YEARS. We actually have rainbows, snow, and blue skies! Why? Because the Islamic Republic's massive, grid-draining crypto farms are offline, meaning their power plants aren't burning toxic Mazut (heavy fuel oil) over our heads anymore. The daily traffic of their corrupt, substandard economy has halted. The Islamic Republic itself was a weapon of mass destruction. Their “peace” was suffocating us. The end of this regime is literally letting Iran breathe again!

The leftist media will always tell you what they want you to believe. Nothing to see here.

How the Leftist Media is Indoctrinated. 🇦🇺🇦🇺👺👺 The Invisible Python: How Institutional Bias is Squeezing Australian Media For years, many have warned that our national way of life is being slowly constricted—not by a single blow, but by a "creeping normalcy" that starts in our classrooms and ends in our newsrooms. This is the theory of institutional capture, where the very people charged with holding power to account have been conditioned by a decade of one-sided education and corporate media culture. The Education Funnel The process begins at the university level. Journalism schools have increasingly moved away from the "old school" grit of objective fact-finding and toward "advocacy journalism." When the next generation of reporters is taught by a monolith of leftist academics, they don't enter the workforce as neutral observers; they enter as activists. They aren't being taught how to think, but what to value—prioritizing globalist agendas over the practical realities of the Australian farmer, miner, or small business owner. The Media Echo Chamber Once these graduates enter major media organizations, the "Python" begins to squeeze. In these environments, certain viewpoints are treated as "authoritative" while others are branded as "fringe." This isn't always a conscious conspiracy; it’s a social survival mechanism. To fit in and move up, young journalists adopt the language and biases of their peers. Over time, the "Overton Window"—the range of what is considered acceptable to discuss—drifts further away from the common-sense values of the average Australian. Why It Matters When the media is "brainwashed" by a singular ideology, they stop asking the hard questions about fuel security, property rights, and government overreach. They become a megaphone for the state rather than a shield for the people. We are told these changes are "progress," but like the boiling frog, we only notice the heat when the water is already at a scream. It is time to demand a return to objective, fearless reporting—one that respects our heritage and doesn't treat half the country like they’re the problem.

@SkyNewsAust @MrsS2023 Fully agree with Cory Bernardi is blunt but spot-on: we must prioritise skilled migrants who contribute, not endless welfare seekers. It's an uphill battle convincing the blind Left they're wrong—they've been brainwashed by leftist ideology since high school.

South Australian One Nation leader Cory Bernardi has clashed with a reporter, accusing them of being a “bleeding heart lefty” during a heated exchange over immigration. skynews.com.au/australia-news…

@Mick55629336 You're mistaken. As an ex-Labor member myself, I know many traditional Labor voters who, like me, will be voting One Nation next election. We're fed up with unsustainable migration, high energy prices from net zero, and the housing crisis. Labor is losing its base.

@earthmanben @AussieFlatus @SkyNewsAust @minnamyself They’re not. You’ll get the people who already vote One Nation and alienate everyone else. There’s simply not a majority for a very hard right government in Australia. Labor are almost locked in until the Libs stop flirting with One Nation and move back to the centre.

Liberal Senator Alex Antic has refused to rule out joining One Nation after tearing into his own party following a "dismal" South Australian state election. skynews.com.au/australia-news…

This is not a leader. This is not dignity. This is submission.

That's why the muslims have fucked up so badly here. They almost lynched a politician, who is basically a useful idiot for them. They revealed themselves to be scarcely housetrained savages in front of the whole world.

He forces all the women in his family to cover up from head to toe, while he shamelessly looks at naked women online. This is what hypocrisy looks like.

🚨 HE TRIED TO TELL US ON 2/24/26 “Iran has already developed missiles that can threaten Europe and our bases overseas, and they’re working to build missiles that will soon reach the United States of America.” Trump is always right.

@SkyNewsAust It's time for the Liberals to wake up: they no longer represent the right. They've drifted into Labor's shadow, becoming just another leftist party. We already have enough of those. Time to rediscover conservative principles—or step aside. Wake up, Liberals. 🇦🇺
