This is a weird headline...

We can stop Labor wrecking Murujuga, climate

...considering that afaict the actual article itself provides no reason for optimism at all. IMO, given we have state & federal Labor governments so completely in thrall to the fossil fools, & who have repeatedly proven they happily ignore science & First Nations, i see no reason to hope here.

Green Left · We can stop Labor wrecking Murujuga, climateLabor’s decision to extend Woodside’s North West Shelf sends a clear signal to the gas industry that it will not let the concerns of scientists, Traditional Owners and ordinary working people stand in the way of corporate profits, argues Maz Misiewicz.  

IMO "productivity", at least wrt how 2PP pollies wield it, is utterly bogus meaningless bullshit.

Peter Martin this morn on RN Brekkie unwittingly emphasised its stupidity by pointing out that a great way to "increase productivity" [statistically] was demonstrated during the early Covid years when peeps stayed home & outlets like cafes & restaurants closed... so as he smugly said, if we wanna raise P, get these peeps to stay home again.

Why are we burdened with these arseholes... why do we keep electing these arseholes?

I happen to be of that particular genre of Stupid that thinks if one is claiming to be serious about climate, environment, & biodiversity protection & enhancement, such that one claims to be forming policy for it, then precisely none of the entities historically & currently doing all the fucking over of those things, gets to sit at the decision table. Instead, they simply get told afterwards that the rules of the game have changed, & all their fucking over shall immediately cease, otherwise it's the Big House for them. I'd prolly also include some appendix formally noting all these entities are fuckheads who can just fuck off.
