He did not criticise them - he called it regrettable. FFS.

It’s only a rort if you’re not in on it.

What a suprise...

Hopefully he can effect some changes there.

Check out what Woodside and Rio are up to now. More destruction to come.

Yes he's going to give them the right directions alright..

...and will go about as well as Peter Garrett did when he switched from Midnight Oil to pink batts Minister for K Rudd

Could this be some sort of payback for previous services?

Duopoly: because you'd have to be asleep at the wheel to vote formally in a Federal election when the rulers for eternity win 1st and 2nd place every. damn. time!!!

Labor will ignore or spin this like when Wayne Swan took work at Stanwell QLD (which operates a dozen coal projects) to supposedly 'change' the company. Changed nothing. Labor are gassing the states while wrapping Victoria in cotton wool to protect the base vote.
