Energy Efficiency

When the Midnight Oils were doing their thing, I found Garrett a little disturbing with his antics; however, like most Aussies and overseas fans were concerned, he spoke of things avoided and high-lighted injustices of the ‘system’; that was until he became part of it.

Now Garrett is supposed to be smart, a solicitor no less, but when it comes to asking the right questions (apart from Chinese making our armed forces’s uniforms) he proved a right dullard; now maybe standing in front of loud-speakers pumping out volumes of sound may have affected him, but his responses always show a mind in action taking careful steps in the mine-field of saying something someone could hang on him later.

His ‘in a jocular fashion’ about reversing anything said about helping the environment has truned out to be 100% right; but why does he lie, side-step an or just not show up at pre-arranged meetings?

I’ve heard rumours of when he dabbled in the the Wildlife Association and the Greens, of screaming rants and accusing people of all sort of things, but pretty much him taking responsability for his stances.

Does he believe he could be prime minister one day and wants to keep as low a profile as possible; does he think the constituants in his electorate will ‘forget’ his coniving, deciet and missing in action/s ?  Didn’t he realize that he could have said anything he wanted, made the Labor party come to heel by exposing their transgressions, or is he that arrogant and ignorant that he believes the Labor party can help him more that his voters ?

So far he has stood up many people in pre-arranged appointments and meetings, like the Electrial trade union and his appearance at the Australian National University; taking to ground like a coward, when there are now safety concerns over another program run by his department.  Hasn’t he heard of ‘I made a mistake and I’m going to fix it’; what a poor example of a parent … how irresponsible would his kids be ?

It really is simple; make all non-compling insulation, solar power and solar hot water systems illegal; make the companies who fitted them the opportunity of going back and making them safe / compliant by June 30th 2010 and then send out auditors; those solar panels, solar hot water and insulation installations that do not comply, ASIC or state office of Fair Trading pursue the companies, sole traders whoever was running the show.

I don’t like Labor, I don’t like Liberal or National (none of them have assisted making Australia #1 in solar power manufacture or use) and the Greens have a ways to go to prove they are fair dinkum, so my comments are not political, they’re intended to achieve an outcome, those who have not achieved the outcome must pay.
