**Confidential***.( PM release/leak before it's posted/ mailed/couriered/foot pedaled to the other Chris)***
Dear Chris, old buddy old pal.
I'm reaching out to you, my political foe, ah.. friend.. colleague! and inviting you to take leadership..ah..jointly do this...to help me really fuck... flick! our search for sustainable...agh..some energy by agreeing to join our lottery and get this energy crisis thing on track.
I know it isn't really my idea, but I do think it's worth a shot if we jointly forget about things, like it was me( it was Nicola, promise! ) canning the Lake Onslow Battery idea, which I know had more certainty ( because we do have water, dur!).
But commonnn Chrissy, we had to spend money on that! And it would take 10 years! Gas is free if we get someone else to find it, pipe it and burn it. Ok, it might take abooout 10 yrs..
So matee, I'll get the papers sorted and we'll run some slick PR and the voters will forget all about the deal we make by next October and we can go back to being foes again.
Don't you just love the way we can form solid joint buy/ by? partisan policy decisions on the fly?
Yours in waiting
CEO Christopher
Matey
