Memo to the media - it’s not your job to rehabilitate the Liberal Party.

The old relationship we had with the United States is over.
Subtext: Because the United States is over.
That’s it. That’s the problem we are electing the next Australian government to deal with.

I'm currently in Agra and it strikes me that some of the richest people in the world in the 1600s chose to spend their wealth on creating some of the most magnificent and enduring works of human creation. Elon could choose to rival Shar Jahan, but instead enshittifies the world.

Australian two-party energy politics is now (mostly) men in suits tap dancing on a handkerchief for the benefit of their funders while achieving zip. The media's thumb-sucking insiders debate how it will 'play with the punters'. The public, meanwhile, quit watching this empty charade years ago.
