Two coal power units in Victoria tripped on Thursday and nobody realised, because a gigawatt of wind and solar was available to step into the breach.

Six of the state's 10 coal units were out neatly replaced by batteries, renewables, and a bit of gas.

Another great episode of #SundayShot today, with a thoroughgoing critique of the budget and the budgeting process, with ne’er a boring moment along the way. Thanks to

“It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up.

“A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.”

Funniest is the breathlessness with which it's all reported, like anyone beyond the bubble of state politics & media worlds gives a rat's tossbag about the Vic Libs, a two-bit operation full of people more suited to squabbling over the chairmanship of the local tennis club's fund-raising committee.

You don't say?! Glad you finally worked it out, Albo. Maybe stop trying to curry favour with them now? 🙄

The fire bombing of the synagogue was appalling, abhorrent. But to blame it on Albanese is dirty,gutter politics. Which, of course is all that the failure Frydenberg was ever good for.

I see a junior economist in the AFR keeps trying to argue that government spending made inflation worse.

Problem is the year in which inflation peaked public sector demand was as low as it'd been for nearly a decade.
