Tony Abbott won a 90 seat landslide based on a blood oath to Axe The Carbon Tax. In 2014 he was thwarted in the Senate from instigating his plans to clean out the green-machine burden, largely by Clive Palmer and cohort, a coal explorer and senator who was a skeptic til Al Gore visited the week before key legislation was voted on. The people who voted for Clive sure didn't vote to bankroll the Renewables Industry but that's what they got, and thanks to the Australia Institute we can see just how much the turncoat cost — about $1,000 per person.
The Australia Institute is suddenly raving about the value of crossbench Senators — especially the ones who did the opposite of what their voters expected — "yay", democracy. Then they've paired it with the release of a nothingburger survey that asked the wrong people no relevant or specific questions as if to pretend Australians approved of the sell-out Senators who wasted $23 billion dollars on a pagan weather-changing plan. Is the Australia Institute a research group or a PR Agency for Renewables?
