      Media advocates for the NEG, remember, are calling a non-policy guaranteeing climate inaction to be embedded permanently in the heart of policy-making until 2030.

      I totally agree that backing *any* NEG, and declaring any resistance to it *politics* is completely idiotic. It means people are not across the detail. 26% is indefensible. I'm not in the chuck it camp though. Ambition needs to be argued and fixed.

      The problem with chuck it is what's the alternative? Some opponents think a RET/CET. In what parliament? I think the alternative is a proper carbon price, then you don't need subsidies. But again, what parliament? You can say chuck it & have disorderly transition but 😬

      I can't work out what we'd lose if a NEG with legislated target didn't go ahead, compared to status quo.

      1. Structure around a transition that impacts a lot of people & the economy. 2. An opportunity to change the politics & have rational Libs back away slowly from past idiocy. This latter point may be impossible, but worth a try IMHO.

      judging by what they did to Turnbull it is indeed impossible.

          I believe it's a waste of time and money that we have so many public servants working on papers for something we know is useless. At least let them work on something useful but hey politicians have given up on being useful now its all about the game and what they get if they play
