Guess what happened at the last election? Liberals kicked out on their a$$ and we still have govt run power...thank God.
No stinking privatisation here thanks, big business have been screwing this country since Keating!
We don't want any stinking private toll roads either.

I’m of the opposite view. Governments should build things and then sell them off, including power. The issue is governance after they’re sold. Power companies have been allowed to get away with murder and all we get it talk from the politicians and nothing else. Legislation needs to be enacted that protects us first, not anyone else. Too many politicians ha e their fingers in too many pies and this is the result.
