Gillard in a fantasy world

Comments on Dennis Shanahan “Gillard's energy cost arguments don't add up”, 3/12/2010, http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/opinion/gillards-energy-cost-arguments-dont-add-up/story-e6frg6zo-1225964756523


Gillard appears to be mostly consistent to position herself not to contradict the views of the Greens on most issues.

Gay carbon price, marriage, nuclear, you name it.

She is particularly strategic in mind about the Greens balance of power.

That may be good to her government in the short term, but can be detrimental to the government and the ALP in the longer term.

The Victoria election is an example to the ALP nationally, if it continues its reliance on the Greens – it will not only lose votes to the Greens, but also to the coalition if the coalition takes a principled approach to preferences.

That is the devil she is playing.

On the nuclear power issue, the ALP and Gillard is out of steps with the reality.

As with the NBN, they just live in their own fantasy world.

The problem is that their own intellectual deficiencies are at the expenses of the taxpayers in Australia!
