Been interesting to watch.
As expected though really. A change in government which means the Labour types in here are now the opposition and now on the attack, although will still need to defend for the next few years as the new government will pretty much blame the previous government for everything, I mean we have seen that over the years.
From my point of view I'm looking forward to the Liberals energy plan coming out in more detail, a interconnector to NSW will be useful as the black coal generation out there is typically cheaper on the spot market, however ElectraNet will enjoy the transmissions costs for that. Also will the pumped hydro at Highbury (300MW for 4 hours) still get up, its a valuable generation source I think we need.
Regardless it will be interesting as to what happens going forward, Steve has a reasonable amount of work in front of him, but with the alignment with the Federal government now we could see some interesting things happening in SA. Basically now that SA is not Labour it seems that Malcolm and his mates will want to get SA up and about as quickly as possible before the next state election.
Also I have been pretty harsh on Steve Marshall basically referring him to something like a bumbling goof at best, but his time is now and he can really show us all what Steve is really about. This is his chance to show everyone how good he really can be.
Read my reply. It is directed at you because you have double standards
