This is why I always encourage people to vote independent or any other party than the big 2. They are eroding our democracy to end up with a US type system where only 2 parties are left to choose.
“Last year, Labor, Liberal and the Nationals voted together to dramatically increase taxpayer funding – to the extent that when the next election comes around, the taxpayer will be funding over half of the cost of major party election campaigns.” - Bill Browne

More 2026 MG 4 details: Urban on separate platform (bigger inside, up to 30 storage spots, King Bed mode). Updated RWD/AWD MG 4 consolidates to 64kWh, gets S5-inspired interior upgrades (larger touchscreen, digital cluster). Dolphin leads at $30k, but MG 4 Urban closes the gap big time.

Brookfield CEO Connor Teskey: Batteries deploy fastest, ease grid congestion, key for rising demand. Plans to quadruple storage to 10GW in 3 yrs. fossil fuels face ongoing price volatility (gas/coal trends up), battery economics just get better. Solar + batteries = lowest-cost, quickest fix

And critical to note, this book ends their previous study from 2013 to 2019, so they're now looking at a decade confirming direct reduction in air pollution with increased EV deployment:

do they have plans for a LFP version in the near future? from what i can find they will have a 68kwh and 80Kwh LFP options for the G6 soon. with 5C charging rates, sounds pretty decent, maybe that tech will replace the NMC and match its charge and discharge rates.
February 2, 2026 at 5:24 AM
recent vid, LFP is king right now for EVs – cheap, safe, reliable. But watch out... sodium-ion batteries are coming for the crown! CATL's Naxtra & BYD's new plants rolling out 2026: Sodium! Will the LFP King fall to solid state or sodium first?

Researchers from USC confirmed EVs in California reduce NO₂. For every 200 ZEVs added 2019-2023, levels fell 1.1%. First statistically significant real-world link via TROPOMI satellite. #EV #pollution #health

Zero-emissions vehicle adoption and satellite-measured NO2 air pollution in California, USA, from 2019 to 2023: a longitudinal observational study
Using a natural experiment, we found that within-ZCTA increases in ZEV registrations were associated with reductions in NO2 air pollution measured by satellite and replicated with ground-level monitor...

Confession: When the Hyundai Staria first arrived, I was convinced it was already electric. That futuristic grille, huge windows... nope, ICE!
Now the Staria EV is real: 400km WLTP, 20-min fast charge, seats up to 9.
Better late than never?

Remember my video on the oddly named Frothing sorry, Forthing, Friday? It's real and testing in Sydney right now! 371-440km range, positioned below BYD Atto 3 pricing. Spotted at Ateco – importer incoming? Let's go!

Why do I get the feeling the leaking of more Epstein files is a distraction from the crushing of the constitution and amendments? Armed government goons doorknocking looking for people of a slightly different skin colour, that sort of crushing…

Best video i have seen on the whole renewables debate.
youtu.be/KtQ9nt2ZeGM?...

and a wake up call at the end for American viewers. its a long video, but explains pretty much everything renewable and EV perfectly #auspol #solar #renewable #oil #ev
You are being misled about renewable energy technology.
