Mr Kenny said when it comes to climate policy “we are constantly hearing predictions and forecasts from the bureau” on which “we are supposed to base serious policy decisions”.
“Back in early December this report in The Australian revealed how the Bureau of Meteorology had given federal [government] a drought briefing, saying there'd be no significant rain until April,” he said. “Some areas had their heaviest rain in decades, dams have filled, creeks and rivers have flooded and many have dared to dream that the drought might be breaking. “If you really want to know what's happening, stick your head out of the window.
Que Sera Sera.

ABC ‘pump propaganda to rubbish the government and inflict misery’: Kenny | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Chris Kenny has criticised the ABC, saying the national broadcaster is using the taxpayers’ money to pump out “propaganda designed to make the government look bad and our country appear miserable”. \n\nThe Federal Government is preparing to evacuate about 200 Australians from the coronavirus-struck Diamond Princess cruise ship back to Darwin on Wednesday. \n\nWhile hundreds of Australians who were in quarantine on Christmas Island finally arrived home on Monday evening.\n\nMr Kenny the use of Christmas Island has been a “great option” to act as a quarantine centre.\n\nMr Kenny said the “usual suspects” lined up to criticise the government “and 'by extension their country” over this move. \n\n“Indeed, the ABC couldn't wait to run stories about how the China evacuees were unhappy with their conditions, how there was a cockroach … [and] slow internet speeds.\n\n“That's your taxes at work pumping out this propaganda, designed to make the government look bad and our country appear miserable”.\n\nImage: News Corp Australia Can someone please explain Cowardly Kenny that sometimes the truth hurts?

EXCLUSIVE: Chinese Ambassador calls for end to 'harsh' coronavirus travel ban | Sky News AustraliaChina’s ambassador to Australia Cheng Jingye has called on Australia to remove “harsh” travel ban restrictions in the wake of the deadly coronavirus outbreak.\n\nIn an exclusive interview with Sky News Chief Anchor Kieran Gilbert, Mr Cheng said the travel ban “unnecessarily” interfered with trade and travel and said Australia should be “coolheaded and not panic”.\n\n“We are deeply disappointed by the restrictive measures that have been taken because as I see it they are out of proportion,' he said. \n\n“As you said it is inconsistent with the professional recommendations of the World Health Organisation. \n\n“We have expressed our strong wish and hope that the Australian government in its next review will take into account the whole situation and take a balanced approach and consider removing those harsh restrictions or at least relax restrictions.”\n\nMr Gilbert pointed out that China itself had taken extraordinary measures well beyond recommendations of the WHO by detaining millions of people in Wuhan and the broader Hubei province.\n\nMr Cheng responded saying the situation in China was “totally different” from that in Australia.\n\n“We need to take extra measures to stop the spread of the disease whereas here the situation is totally different,” he said. \n\n“Australia is only one of a few countries which has taken such sweeping and stringent restrictive measures on travel.\n\n“We hope the (Australian) government will take a balanced approach and remove harsh restrictions or at least relax them.”\n No you keep the virus 🦠 contained by keeping tight restrictions on travel — look at the death toll climbing in China daily The Cheng is a monster.

Compulsory superannuation 'creates a false economy' | Sky News AustraliaCompulsory superannuation creates a 'false economy' and does little to alleviate the burden on the aged-care pension, according to Liberal senator Gerard Rennick.\n\nThe government has commissioned a review into its compulsory superannuation scheme, which was establish under the Keating government in 1992 to ensure workers can retire with dignity.\n\nUnder the current program, employers have to pay 9.5 per cent of an employee's salary into super, which can be accessed by retired workers at 60.\n\nUnder bipartisan agreement, compulsory super contributions will rise to 12 per cent by 2025.\n\nSenator Rennick told Sky News super is failing 'because it buys assets, it doesn't build assets'.\n\n'Super funds invest $600 billion offshore and you have got to ask yourself why they haven't invested in the car industry to keep that up and running,' he said.\n\n\n\n SenatorRennick Compulsory superannuation creates another saving bank for the economics multiplier effect while the actual retail bank has increased safeguards. SenatorRennick Super should only be available as a pension, and should not be cashed in to pay debt. SenatorRennick You can't keep changing the goal posts with superannuation. People are using the rules and planning years in advance for their retirement. People must be secure in the knowledge of what they are doing is right.
