Part two of my 2022 year in reflection swimming thread is all salt water, and mostly ocean pools. /1

@Isobel3918426 I campaigned at the last election, but not for Labor. I’m confused - is it your position that Pauline Hanson acting corruptly or ineptly is ok because you don’t like Labor? Explain it

@aaronsmith When is your Labor going to give us the costings to date & future on Net Zero & costings for when it reaches end-of-life & all has to be replaced? Labor fanatics are always asking for everyone else's costings. How about it? We've been waiting since May '22, but no costings yet.

According to Pauline Hanson, asking for policy costings is a “stupid question” - because One Nation has never been serious enough about policy to survive real scrutiny. One Nation doesn’t build policy - it sells slogans.

It’s going well isn’t it?

@Ryandally08 That doesn't contradict him. Panic buying at some locations doesn't change the quantum.

#BREAKING Anthony Albanese claims there is “not less fuel in Australia today than there was 3 weeks ago” Meanwhile At least 42 petrol stations are reportedly out of fuel, and almost double have no diesel. Completely contradicting the PM. #Auspol

@RoxleyP22751 So your approach is to hold Pauline to a standard you're not happy with? Seems a bit counter intuitive.

@aaronsmith Ask the muppets in the Labor Party who ARE ACTUALLY in power and they know f-all as well. Wenny Pong “I’ll take that on notice”, Katie Gallagher Like a deer in the headlights. Thes are the people who make decisions that affect us daily and they have no F**ing idea. Go Pauline,

Here’s a classic example of Pauline Hanson’s tactical Trumpist/Bannon avoidance of a journalist’s fair question re policy costings. The journalist is demonised by Hanson and her supporters. Thus are voters to be taken for fools by Hanson, Barnaby and One Nation candidates.👇

@FlanHammer69 @ProfJoannaHowe Read each and every word in my post. I chose each word deliberately.

@Phil69695598 @ProfJoannaHowe Joanna is a serial harasser. No one is under any obligation to indulge her - especially when she’s ambushing people with a microphone and camera in their face.

@aaronsmith @ProfJoannaHowe All she needed to do was answer one question, to justify the views she holds. Surely thats not too much for a person who supposedly represents the people of her area?

❗️BREAKING ❗️Today I've been going to prepoll asking politicians about their position on abortion. Things escalated quickly when Labor MP Nat Cook didn't even let me get my question out and started yelling, "Call the police" and "I'm being harassed". As an elected representative asking for our vote and being paid over $200k by the taxpayer, Nat Cook should be able to answer a question about her position against two recent bills seeking to ban late term abortion. Minutes after she shouted for the police, a police car with two police officers arrived at the scene and I was told they would arrest me unless I left. How absolutely appalling that Labor can abuse their powers and get the police to do their dirty work when they don't want to answer a tough question. My 15 year old daughter Laura had a pupil free day and so she came along to film me. She couldn't believe what happened. I think she learned more in this one day about the police state we live in, than she could in the classroom. Make no mistake: Labor is authoritarian and anti-free speech. They support full term abortion and refuse to answer any question about why. Put Labor & the Greens last and put One Nation first. That's what I'll be doing because someone needs to take it to these Labor dictators. Full video (including the interactions with the police) will drop on YouTube tomorrow.

@YuriBobby29283 @S4muraiD4d @cheryl_kernot I just searched myself and these are the first 3 results.

@aaronsmith @ProfJoannaHowe Elected officials have no obligation to answer questions about their policies from constituents? It’s easy to tell you are on the far left politically

@S4muraiD4d @cheryl_kernot Oh i have not heard about this.

@aaronsmith @cheryl_kernot Apparently, her son was fined for being involved in an illegal brothel.

@YodaTheDad13 Vibes then?

@aaronsmith No direct evidence. It is a conclusion I made after observing how they operate. How they direct funding, what their priorities are. They are not in any way interested in what we want. They have already decided what we will have.

Out of 473,000 EVs in Australia, 13 have caught fire. Of those 13, 3 were caused by separate house fires, 2 because someone set them on fire, and 5 from high-speed collisions. That leaves just 3 out of 473,000 EVs for which no cause has been identified. 3.

@YodaTheDad13 What evidence do you have for that?

@aaronsmith I don't think this is how Labor politicians see it though. I think their intention is to force it on everyone, regardless of our own preferences.

@ProfJoannaHowe No MP has an obligation to be fodder for clicks and views on your shitty platform. How incredibly entitled of you to think otherwise.

@888ALX Your research sounds extensive, detailed and well considered.

@aaronsmith Read ChatGPT the cost to charge a vehicle is cheap but the cost to make electricity is too expensive and they’re is insufficient power in the grid to cover but yes it could be achieved at great infrastructure cost

If Aus had embraced EV adoption in 2019, rather than caving to Morrison’s scare campaign, fewer Australians would be getting slugged $2.50 a litre for fuel today. The Liberals lack of vision ages badly, and Australians wear the cost for years.

@BenAlbanyPitt @HDealla What doesn’t work?

@HDealla @aaronsmith Better tech today than 7 years ago and still doesnt work.

@coolkoon Oh selling features like that - it’s not specific to EVs.

@aaronsmith What, haven't you heard of the BMW heated seat subscription thing?

Energy Fact Check: How much land does renewable energy use, and will it affect our food security? Verdict: Renewable energy uses a very small share of Australian land and will have a negligible impact on Australia’s food security. energyfactcheck.com.au/2024/11/05/how…

@888ALX I charge mine from the grid typically for between $2 and $3. Do you think that’s expensive? How much do you spend on a tank of fuel by comparison. Appreciate if you could post the data you’re relying on for your supply claim too.

@aaronsmith There isn’t enough power with renewables to charge EV cars plus today’s charge rates are out of control re electricity costs . Great idea but no power will suffice
