Whether it’s bribery and fraud; vote rigging scandals; tax fraud; investor fraud or REC fraud – wind weasels and their political enablers set a uniform standard that’s so low a red-bellied black snake could comfortably hurdle it. Here’s STT Champion, James Delingpole telling woeful tales from three continents (the UK, the US and Australia) that … Continue reading The Great Wind Power Fraud: Rotten The World Over

Keith De Lacy: “New” Labor – Out to Punish the Poor & Get Rich
*** A few posts back we looked at how South Australia went from economic zero to economic hero during the 1950s and 1960s - with the help of a pragmatic Adelaide Hills farmer, Sir Tom Playford. Tom created a manufacturing and industrial investment paradise - principally by making cheap and reliable power available through the … Continue reading Keith De Lacy: “New” Labor – Out to Punish the Poor & Get Rich
Game On: the Race to Kill the RET
**** With the Head Boy, Tony Abbott recently signalling the demise of the RET (see our post here) Labor apparatchiks have gone into a flat panic. Labor is a party that’s controlled by Australia’s Unions - and fed and fattened on a steady diet of the money controlled by Union backed Superannuation funds. Over the … Continue reading Game On: the Race to Kill the RET
ETSA: Sir Tom Playford’s Ghost
**** Once upon a time, in a land far, far away there was a place called South Australia - and it enjoyed electricity delivered reliably and at retail prices amongst the lowest in the world (no, it wasn’t a dream). The brainchild of agrarian socialist, Liberal Premier, Sir Thomas Playford, the Electricity Trust of South … Continue reading ETSA: Sir Tom Playford’s Ghost
PAC Chair Garry West: Ignorance is the New “Black”
**** STT readers will recall our coverage of the sordid decision by the NSW Planning Assessment Commission (PAC) to spear 55 giant fans right into the heart of a peaceful and thriving NSW Tablelands community called Collector. The PAC was quite happy to overlook a suite of lies, treachery and deceit tossed up by Thai-turbine-terrorists, … Continue reading PAC Chair Garry West: Ignorance is the New “Black”

Macca shoulder to shoulder with Tony Abbott as PM signals end for RET
Last Wednesday, Action Man Abbott fronted the Canberra press gallery and delivered a speech that signals the end of Australia’s insanely expensive (and completely pointless) Renewable Energy Target (RET). Tony outlined the Coalition’s vision for restoring Australia’s beleaguered manufacturing sector, no doubt, in response to General Motor’s recent announcement that it will pull the … Continue reading Macca shoulder to shoulder with Tony Abbott as PM signals end for RET
Merry Christmas, Mr Napthine
STT champion Annie Gardner gives Victorian Premier Denis “I love turbines” Napthine a shot of what the hard working people of Macarthur can “look forward” to this Christmas. It has been an acoustic HELL on earth for dozens of families for over a year now. But Denis couldn’t care less. This power policy pygmy considers … Continue reading Merry Christmas, Mr Napthine
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. In China, fan makers (as well as those involved in making acres of solar panels) are saddled … Continue reading Chinese fan makers hit Great Wall of debt
