Cats point out that it’s all fish though.

Do you think he cares? There’s no political fallout from.. reminding him of this, unfortunately.

So do you:

- Think this is good for NSW?

- Agree with the Premier we should keep Eraring open for longer. 2027? 2029? 2032?

- How much longer? Until all the required infrastructure is built? If that takes longer to do because funding isn’t available because, well, it’s going to Eraring..

On another note, the first *public* consultation for Eraring closure was in *2017*.

8 years ago.

Origin brought the date forward in an announcement in *2020*.

5 years ago.

Governments have known this was happening for more than a decade.

And what did they do..

AEMO has identified a *potential* for reliability gaps - which many people are in turn commenting on a “lack of capacity” which AEMO have *not* said is the case. Far from it.

The NSW government has known about this since 2021 (and earlier) and instead of fast tracking the grid investment needed..

The agreement that was struck in 2024 was for two years (to 2026) with a pushback on the absolute end date from 2027 to 2029.

Minns is suggesting extending it further past the existing 2 years his government negotiated and paid for.

The thing is.. this is media “analysis” and reporting because it’s a “possible” conclusion.

The vast majority of people aren’t going to do this at all.

And we’re still talking about a pool of around 100,000 people right now. Perhaps 250,000 in a decade.

Ohm-ygod, how long did you take to think of this one?

What’s wrong with either of them?

I mean they have a very narrow focus but what am I missing here..

Fan belt can sound like that..

The scam phone calls are getting more sophisticated and I have no idea if they're now using AI, call centres w/ scripts or indentured workers (slaves) for these - but the actual script doesn't change very much.

- Engage
- Engender panic
- Build trust
- Break the security model
...
- Profit
