@WSJ So does 'luck out' mean the opposite of out of luck? WSJ editor, do you sanction the use of this sort of expression?

@PhillipAdams_1 Big deal. Dutton will return the electricity grid to public hands, no questions asked. Or answered.

@DoctorKarl Thanks Dr Karl. Rosie’s arguments make a strong case. It would be good to see a rebuttal of each of her 4 points. Any takers?

@BernardKeane It’s not just the Coalition wanting to nationalise the electrical power companies. Judith Sloan in The Oz is all for it. Next, the banks.

Is there anyone left in the Coalition who actually believes in small government? No one batting an eyelid about Dutton proposing a $70B boondoggle involving the Commonwealth becoming a power station owner.

Peter Dutton plans a huge expansion in the role of the federal government to build seven nuclear power plants. But he can't say how he'll do it in the face of state opposition, including from his own party, writes @bernardkeane. #Echobox=1718762759-1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">crikey.com.au/2024/06/19/pet…

Nice Banerjee and Duflo quote on the real benefits of economic development: "Our real advantage comes from the many things that we take as given. We live in houses where clean water gets piped in—we do not need to remember to add Chlorin to the water supply every morning."

@ladbrokescomau Biggest upset? Well my neighbour got pretty upset when he heard that gambling on violence could have something to do with him being broke and violent.

@crikey_news It wasn’t about him, until Sarah made it about herself and him. Can we focus on the problem of violence against women? And on serious responses like Bernard Keane’s?
