Who put the “Clean” in “Clean” Energy Council?

**** Australia's peak wind weasel lobby group is called the "Clean Energy Council". After watching this video, STT is not exactly sure why these boys can claim to be backing a "clean" form of energy at all? In fact, we think they're either abusing the English language beyond what it can ordinarily suffer - or … Continue reading Who put the “Clean” in “Clean” Energy Council?

Chinese fan makers hit Great Wall of debt

For any company to claim it is solvent it must be able to pay its debts as and when they fall due.  And, to remain solvent, a company’s revenue must exceed its expenses - over the long haul.

John “Marshall” Madigan Declares War

  A couple of posts back we covered a Fin Review piece in which it was suggested that SA’s favourite Greek, Nick Xenophon and John “Marshall” Madigan had come out swinging in favour of the Clean Energy Finance Corporation (CEFC). At the time, STT said that Senators Xenophon and Madigan were merely using their positions … Continue reading John “Marshall” Madigan Declares War

NSW PAC – Unfazed by RATCH’s Lies, Treachery & Deceit

STT readers will remember the hunt to find the elusive Frank Bestic - who we believed - at that time - was a former Transfield employee who had apparently “jumped ship” to help in the fight to save Collector.
