No, I just said the Libs had killed business, reduced employment and hours worked yet increased emissions. I did not say they were related: don’t know what caused the emissions increase.

Lee is a nice bloke and very patient with you dopey- why dont you pay him some respect?

"Electricity generation in Australia rose by 2 per cent in 2014–15 to 252terawatt hours "

"Brown coal fired generation rose by 11 per cent in 2014–15, while black coal rose by 2 per cent, "

Maybe it was all those put out of work, and closed businesses that caused the increase in electricity consumption. Wink

Decidedly odd and dodgy looking.
