Power prices are soaring despite the quite absurd statements from Minister Bowen to the contrary.
Wind factories, solar factories and transmission lines to be further subsidised to litter our landscape and remove our right of private ownership.
Illegal immigrants boating in again. Thirteen interest rate rises in a row so defaults on businesses and homes are rising. Dams that were canned and Inland Rail shelved. Our defence capabilities slipping.
