Lamenting the shift in the Australian psyche, away from the egalitarian ideal of the fair-go - and the rise of short-sighted pollies, who worship the 'Growth Fairy' and seek to divide and conquer!

Time takes precedence in this household, WA is now 3 hours behind most of the Eastern seaboard, so Q & A is still nearly 2 hours prior to starting here!

Jennifer Marohasy is a paid stooge for the far right wing of the Liberal Party.
The Liberal Party sponsored think tank that she works for is hardly a melting pot of free thought and ideas  Smiley

One is probably OK - but he would have to ditch the creepy-crawly-caterpillar moustache...

The other, I find so Dickensian-creepy that I've nicknamed him 'Uriah Hunt'...

"Jennifer Marohasy is an Australian environmental researcher and writer.

Jennifer has a Bachelor of Science and a PhD from the University of Queensland, worked for twelve years as a research scientist for the Queensland government based in Kenya and Madagascar, for six years as environmental manager for sugarcane growers based in Brisbane, and then for six years at the Melbourne-based Institute of Public Affairs.  She is sceptical of the consensus position on anthropogenic global warming.

Jennifer was recently appointed an Adjunct Research Fellow in the Centre for Plant and Water Science, Central Queensland University, and has just started publishing again in the peer-reviewed literature."

Thanks Adel & Gizmo, it's nice to know she does have some education about that which she speaks. Climate skeptic is hardly a descriptive title, my old man's one & he's a bloody accountant with no idea.
Having said that the way she continually interupted & talked over other panalists was bloody annoying and in the end made me ignore everything she said.
Hardly a good way to get the message across.

I'm finding the labelling of people like Garnaut, Flannery, Stevens et al, as being "aligned" to one party or the other increasingly wearisome.

I hate the thought of Australia going down America's path, where everyone knows how everyone else votes, because they are registered.

I'll keep my naive belief that they are free thinkers, in their positions because of ability.

Stevens - appointed by Howard

Flannery - Australian of the Year under Howard.



You're the one "labelling" them. You have no idea how they vote.
