- Comment on Queensland council races to reverse mayor's EV charger halt, with funding on the line 6 days ago:
Read this story this morning in my feed. Pretty shocking outcome to be honest. They’d been trying for EIGHT years to get these EV chargers funded for their region and then the mayor watched that channel 7 video about nickel mining in Indonesia. On the basis of that video he called a motion to cancel the install and it passed 4:3. Turns out that he also has some constituents who ‘regularly contact him’ whenever anything about renewables comes up - I’m sure you can imagine the type - and he decided to pull the pin. Side note - the ch.7 doco was debunked - turned out literally nobody uses the nickel from that Indonesian mine in car batteries because it’s too low quality. He also failed to mention what the nickel in car batteries has to do with EV chargers that, since this is in Queensland, are probably powered by fucking COAL.

I went to the one at Albion Park Rail when it opened and it felt like a run-down post-apocalyptic eatery even though it had only been open for two weeks. I’ve eaten at Taco Bell in the US and can confirm it’s every bit a shite.

I’ll be voting for whoever seems the most communist. Which is of course literally none of them. Even on the left-wing ones are just centrists.

You’re a legend - no judgement here about how you choose to go with the courts .
