Add this to the list of failed schemes and money wasted by this inept, incompetent, pathetic government:
Well Being Green, a business that acted as a type of intermediary for solar installers to trade renewable energy certificates, has collapsed into administration, owing more than $7 million to about 200 creditors.
A Government-recommended Solar Heating Rebate Agent company has absconded with $7 million rebate money, owed to small business and tradesmen – despite the Federal Government having been warned of the company’s dodgy practices by tradesmen and the Opposition. The Minister for Climate Change, Greg Combet has disowned the issue.
Labor's primary vote is now the same as the combined vote of the Greens and other minor parties and independents for the first time.
This will have the 'Love Media' entering hyperdrive. Plenty of love for the government in Four Corners piece on the carbon tax last night. Have we ever seen anything so blatant. Not much chance of them being enquired into, by this govt anyway.
INDEPENDENT MP Rob Oakeshott says any move to replace Julia Gillard as prime minister would cause him to reflect on his support for the minority Labor government.
BOB Brown has declared the Greens' minority government deal with Labor would survive a change of prime minister, saying the agreement was with the party, not Julia Gillard.
I'll predict that the upcoming fortnight will be the last of Julia Gillard's prime ministership.I am really over this Government!!!!!!!
I'd support that idea, sails. Personally I find Rudd way more obnoxious than Julia Gillard and I think if he were re-established as PM, the electorate would pretty soon remember how much they disliked him.Would anything actually change with Rudd re-instated as leader? He was the one who abolished the Pacific Solution and he wanted an ETS. Wouldn't he simply continue to lose the way for labor?
I sometimes wonder if his high polling is more to do with Gillard's unpopularity than actual support for him.
Julia seems to have decided it's Malaysia or burn.I don't think so drsmith, they are so lost they don't know what to do.
Julia seems to have decided it's Malaysia or burn.
She won't get the former, so it will be the latter. It's only a question of time.
The knife drawer in the kitchen at the house of Liberal I suspect has allready been emptied.

I wonder how much personal control Julia Gillard actually has over the situation?
She was pretty much told to get out there and take over when the factional bosses decided our Kev was no longer a goer, and isn't it likely most of what she has said and done since then has been dictated to her?
I'm almost feeling a bit sorry for her.
andJulia Gillard, he says, has ''this incredible self-belief [which] is totally unjustified. She listens to no one because she thinks she understands, and she hasn't got a clue. There are plenty of good people around, if you include the cabinet, but she is not listening to any of them.''
"... he insists Labor did not underestimate the electorate's revulsion at the axing of Rudd. There was only a ''gross overestimation of Gillard's ability''".
Julia, it would appear that she has full control due to labor party policy that their MPs are not permitted to cross the floor. That gives any leader of the labor party dictatorial powers, as far as I can see.
Just because the ALP demands unity of its members on the floor of the house does not mean Gillard exercises complete control. She is at the mercy of the factions in the party room, which is where most debate occurs....
Thanks Sails. I totally withdraw any silly thoughts of sympathy for her.
Agree that Richo always has a realistic interpretation.
