David Llewellyn-Smith at Macrobusiness.com.au, in his article "Albo Incinerates Aussie Economy to Protect China," deals with the shocking way PM Albo is willing to wreck the Australian economy to aid China. As we know, Australia is all-so -keen to flog off everything in the ground, including gas, and much of what is above the ground to China – our elites have no national loyalty unlike China's ruling class, who still have national pride. With respect to gas, Australia needs to keep 5 percent of its current gas exports to get its industrial foundation in order. But the information about the gas domestic reservation remedies is being kept under wraps, as a Freedom of Information request by former Senator Rex Patrick revealed. It is a good guess that everything is going to China, to fuel its war economy.
Llewellyn-Smith asks the rhetorical question: "What kind of corrupted government steals the gas from its people on behalf of a foreign tyranny—triggering industrial hollowing out, endemic inflation, falling living standards, housing crisis, and a wrecked energy transition—then scrubs the dictator's fingerprints from the smoking gun?" The answer is the Albo government, which is why: "Xi Jinping's Albanese government must be sacked at the first available opportunity."

"If you thought Paul Keating's China grovelling was bad, spare a thought for the Albanese government, which is now so infected with 'Xi Jinping thought' that it is willing to wreck the entire economy to protect China.
I am talking about gas.
Australia needs to keep 5% of its current gas exports to put its energy transition back on track, cure itself of inflation and an immense housing shortage, and repair its industrial base.
Instead, when former senator Rex Patrick pursued an FOI to unveil what kind of gas domestic reservation remedies the government has considered, he was met with an extraordinary blockade:
Three points stand out.
First, Australia holding back 200Pj of 4,500Pj exported gas to prevent economic disaster is a complete no-brainer.
Second, if Japan, Korea and Singapore can't get by without this lousy 200Pj amid a massive and growing global gas glut, then there is something very wrong with their policymakers.
Finally, and most importantly, why is China not mentioned? It is China that takes three-quarters of east coast Australian gas, where the problem of domestic shortage is most acute.
Xi Jinping thought has so infected the Albanese government and its agencies that it systematically refuses to mention the word "China", preferring to mock blame and protect allies as a great distraction!
What kind of corrupted government steals the gas from its people on behalf of a foreign tyranny—triggering industrial hollowing out, endemic inflation, falling living standards, housing crisis, and a wrecked energy transition—then scrubs the dictator's fingerprints from the smoking gun?
The kind of government that follows the dictates of the 14 conditions to end democracy.
Xi Jinping's Albanese government must be sacked at the first available opportunity.
