If Labor have any survival instincts at all, they will combine with the Coalition to squash the Greens in the Senate.

I saw Bob Brown on Insiders this morning, I never saw a man more confident of getting Labor to do his bidding. He speaks as though he is also spokesman for Labor

Agree with all remarks above. I'd be surprised if many of those who either voted Greens or directed preferences to them are not regretting having done this.

Bob Brown is all the more dangerous because of the genial, oh-so-reasonable, calm persona he projects. He's very successful at hiding his true agenda.

We can only hope the government and the opposition will vote together where necessary to prevent the Greens' whacko stuff holding sway.

Re: The Greens - The New Radical Socialists

A remark from Larissa Waters, a young green spokesperson, was that ''Australians will have to prepare for a world that will not need our coal in 20 to 30 years''.

Now that would be a large chunk of Queensland's export income and hundreds of thousands of jobs along with hundreds of businesses gone. There must be plans to go nuke in all the coal importing countries because renewables can't meet demand.

I wonder what Bobby is scheming behind those shifty eyes?

More and more I am warming to Paul Keating's comment regarding the Senate... "unrepresentative swill" IIRC.

A lack of professionalism is evident with your research.

Internet fraudsters are raking in thousands of dollars a day with an elaborate scam selling magnetic perpetual motion machines that are claimed to produce infinite free energy.

Since spring this year an operation called Magniwork has been selling a $50 DIY guide to building a perpetual motion device at home.

Sorry viewers. Had to clear up that one so let's be back on topic.

Re: The Greens - The New Radical Socialists

Although it's actually anything but funny, I had to laugh when I heard Bob Brown nominating himself as Treasury Spokesperson for the Greens.
God help us all if he, or any other Greens member for that matter, ever has any material say in the financial concerns of this country.

Greens would shut a coal industry worth $60bn in export revenues

Re: The Greens - The New Radical Socialists

What's spooked the ABC ?

Yesterday, the ABC reported the following in a news article,

Greens leader Bob Brown says ultimately the carbon price has to result in shutting down the coal industry.

https://www.aussiestockforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=20238&p=642037&viewfull=1#post642037

Today, that has been retracted to this,

Senator Brown says a carbon pricing scheme will only cut "a few percentage points" off coal miners' profits.

However, he says coal mines ultimately have to close and be replaced by renewable energy industries.

plus this,

Editor's note: An earlier version of this story reported Senator Brown as saying the carbon price would ultimately result in shutting down the coal industry. Senator Brown says this was a misinterpretation of his comments. Read the full transcript of his interview with Barrie Cassidy.

http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2011/06/26/3253701.htm

What Bob Brown said, according to The Insiders transcript,

BOB BROWN: I would not figure that in because they are just so highly profitable.

But that has to be the outcome. You know the coal industry has to be replaced by renewables.

http://www.abc.net.au/insiders/content/2011/s3253713.htm

On the video, he did infact say industry (~9min/20sec into video segment), so he was not misinterpreted in the ABC's original commentary.

As I have stated before, this Green/Labor socialist goverment, which is one step before communism, will always endeavour to control the media. That is a part of their modus operandi.

I think an article in "the aussie" may explain why..... Tom Albanese Rio Tinto chief exec was none to happy about Bobby boy's call for the coal industry to be shut down and said the statement was extreme.....

A phone call between office's ...... ???? wouldn't surprise me

Re: The Greens - The New Radical Socialists

I have been saying for some time now, these Green Radicals, and I should include Rudd and Gillard are part of a world wide movement with the United Nations to form a world government.
Is it likely to succeed? I hope not, but Bob Brown, who I might add has become very cocky in these last two days, is a strong advocate in this latest link.

OMG, what are we headed for down the track?

Mr Brown has indeed become very sure of himself as 1st July approaches. I can't believe that he'd actually come out and state he wanted to see a world government.
Good god, does he have any slight handle on reality about anything!:

This Brown has become very cocky indeed and needs knocking off his high perch.

And make no mistake, Gillard and Rudd are up to their beady eyeballs in it. I just do not believe there is a rift between these two. They put on a good act together.

I still believe Rudd's assassination was a put up job in order to allow him 18 months travelling the world to gain popularity with world leaders. He has followed the same pattern as Ki-Moon did before he became UN Secretary General. Only problem is KI-Moon may seek another 5 year term, hence the reason Rudd is back testing the temperature of the water for a stint at the leadership of the Labor Party.

IMHO it has all back fired on Gillard/Rudd.

Julia Gillard's in office, but who's in power ?

To me, that's half right. Labor is jumping around with the information release date while Bob Brown is looking in control of the whole process. This to me is very damaging for Labor and the Greens know it.

Labor is dancing like a cat on a hot tin roof and it's the Greens providing the solar power. I suspect Bob Brown knows exactly what he's doing and the Labor leadership are yet to wake up to it.
