In their annual country report for NZ, the OECD concluded that National's over-priced gas terminal locking in fossil dependence is, and I paraphrase, a stupid idea.

"... and instead recommended investment in non-gas generation like biomass or pumped hydro."

But Christopher Luxon reckons that he knows better than the OECD and claims that their warning on the government's LNG plans are "a load of rubbish."

"Luxon said the coalition government was not going to tolerate "bumper sticker" policies or the sort of "kumbaya and mush" that Labour pursued while it was in power."

Putting aside the immorality of promoting fossil fuels over renewables, a deeply unpopular NZ Prime Minister describing the collective wisdom of the OECD as "kumbaya and mush" is one for the record books.

Dunning-Kruger appears to be getting the better of our PM. The man's an utter embarrassment.

But hey it could be worse. We got supplies, food, booze and weed. Our family members are all safe, even my Grandmother in assisted living whom we drove out to visit today as they have no power and no phone service.

Best of all, we got each other!

P.S. Was gonna post a pic but the upload keeps timing out. Gotta use your imaginations yo 😉

Remarkable to me that Christians, whose entire philosophy rests upon "fallen man", could ever endorse the concept of freeing man from all egalitarian-oriented economic regulation, because it was all going to end well that way.
