**** SA’s favourite Greek, Senator Nick Xenophon has teamed up with Frontier Economics’ Danny Price to absolutely hammer the ludicrous plan to spear 197 giant fans into SA’s agricultural Heartland on Yorke Peninsula.

Fan Makers Howl: The Sound of Squealing Pigs from Germany
Germans have woken up to the true cost of the insanity brought to them by their political betters aka the Energiewende.
