What would a Dutton Liberal leadership mean for the Liberals and the country?

Ahh yes - the typical Greens attitude of we know whats best for you.
We must wait for hard hitting articles from Coorey, Van Onselen or Greg Sheridan which will probable be written by the LNP and they just take their logo off the top.
Precisely which part of my post is "opinion"?
That coal and gas mining in Australia is 86/87% foreign owned?
Or that HECS contributes move revenue to the federal budget than the Petroleum Resources Rent Tax?
I'll stop when you counter them with actual data and evidence.
It's 1/20th the size. And if you chop off all the parts of Australia not connected to the national grid, we're probably only about 5x larger.
The Netherlands is 1/20th the size of Norway and they've got a nuclear plant. All this quoting (mis-quoting) of numbers, but I'm not sure what the point is?
Why does it matter if coal/gas is foreign owned and where did you pull this 86/87% figure from?
And again - who cares when it comes to the discussion of Duttons nuclear policy?
It’s not relevant at all. Just some emotive double-speak that may as well have been pulled off the back of a dunny door.
But real life does not work like that. We can’t just chop off parts of Australia.

Undermining our democracy: Foreign corporate influence through the Australian mining lobby
Australia’s mining industry is 86% foreign owned and has spent over $541 million in the last ten years on lobbying Australian governments through its peak
It has gone up since 2017 - Australia Institute had it at 89.73% in June 2022.
You don't think it is a problem that our kids contribute more to federal revenues than foreign owned gas companies? Seriously?
Yes, the government collects more money from HECS than it does from the petroleum resource rent tax.
We need to tax things we want less of and subsidise things we want more of. Right now with PRRT and HECS, we're doing it the wrong way round.
Now I am happy to consider credible sources to oppose these reports from the Australia Institute - do you have any?
Or will you simply counter with more "emotive double-speak that may as well have been pulled off the back of a dunny door"?
Devastated
That is ridiculous. Of course they will be majority foreign owned as they are major publicly listed companies.Undermining our democracy: Foreign corporate influence through the Australian mining lobby

Using that example, you could say the same thing about Atlassian or Canva or anyone really.
Well folks, here's your choice:
If you want the cheapest possible uninterrupted supply of electricity that uses Australia's own, natural resources as its foundation - vote Coalition.
If you want expensive, unreliable, environmentally-destructive electricity that gifts Australia's energy security to The "Peoples" Republic of China - vote Albanese Labor, Bandt Greens or Holmes a Court Teal.
The future is in your hands.

We don’t know if the reactors will be overseas owned and operated….China being one of the leaders in this space

Delusional if you think nuclear would not involve the Chinese

Who bloody cares?
There are nuclear reactors all over the world - some in countries with much more earthquake activity than us.
Hell, there is even one in Los Angeles.

I guess you don’t live near Gippsland
Who cares who owns them?
How is it relevant?
Every country in the western world has nuclear bar New Zealand. If they can manage than so can we.
