The ‘Yes’ proponents still cannot accept that the majority of Australians could see!

Gecko Chrips


Now that the referendum on ‘the Voice’ has been soundly defeated, the Gecko thought we could all return to some form of normalcy and that commonsense may actually be still around. But no, the ‘Yes’ proponents still cannot accept that the majority of Australians could see the effect it would have on all of us through Treaties, Truth Telling and Reparations. Don’t lapse into a false sense of security though because the Yes campaign will try to get what they demand through stealth. Nonsensical governments, both state and local, are establishing treaties with various Aborigine tribes right now and this is costing us big time. Aboriginal activists want to keep the use of ‘First Nations’ alive because this is a means to treaties and we are so gullible to let this happen for fear of being called ‘racist’.  


The Gecko has been called racist because the Gecko believes all Australians are equal and should be treated the same. But little do readers know, the Gecko couldn’t give a ‘you know what’ if some uninformed or misinformed human throws out the word ‘racist’. About time we stopped being so chicken-livered and began to stand up for how good this country of ours can be and stop this pandering to 3.8% of the population. My message to the Indigenous Aborigines is this…. Be inclusive, be Australian, stop being a victim, because you are all Australians just like the rest of us regardless of your origins. And, most importantly, we all come under the same umbrella of rules, benefits and respect. 


Now, on a lighter note, the following has come to Gecko’s attention.  


The Australian Prime Minister will travel to Australia in the first half of next year, it has been confirmed. It will be the first visit by an Australian leader to Australia since late 2022. 


A spokesperson for Mr Albanese, affectionately known as Airbus Albo, said the PM always enjoyed travelling to Australia. “Mr Albanese has a real affinity with Australia – he grew up there (in a housing commission flat with his single parent mother), he spent some time working there, he knows a lot of people there. It really is his home away from home”, the spokesperson said. 


Local officials in Australia said the trip would be a chance to hold high level talks with the Australian Prime Minister on issues of national importance. “We’re hoping to grab some time with him to discuss housing policy, cost of living, climate change, workplace relations, just to name a few. We’re aware his time is tight due to his overseas commitments, but it’ll be great to get his input on these issues and hopefully work towards some agreements.” 


Airbus Albo (aka Albanese Overseasy) needs to focus on our cost of living, housing policy and the reduction in immigration so we can actually house our own people and stop giving away our ‘hard earned’ to countries that don’t need it. Probably a good idea to reduce the focus on climate change, renewables and ‘the Voice’ as well. 


Here are some facts for the climate change fanatics to get their head around.  


Coal Plants Worldwide: 

EU has 468 plants and is building 27 more; 

Turkey has 56 plants and is building 93 more;  

South Africa has 79 plants and is building 24 more;  

India has 589 plants and is building 446 more;  

Philippines has 19 plants and is building 60 more;  

South Korea has 58 plants and is building 26 more;  

Japan has 90 plants and is building 45 more;  

China has 2363 plants and is building 1171 more; 


Australia is planning to shut down its 6 remaining plants to save the world. 


When you consider Australia’s carbon output is about 1% ….. are we really saving the planet or have we been brainwashed by the climate fanatics? And remember carbon is a critical part of our existence because without carbon this planet would not exist as a life source. Life on Earth would not be possible without carbon. 


Currently, renewables such as wind, solar and hydro cannot provide the power we need. Coal fired power stations are a must until renewables can support our power needs. The cost of renewables is astronomical and is being funded by government. If renewables are the panacea of our power needs, how come our power costs have become so expensive and cost of living skyrocketed?  


Now, we have to dig all these metals out of the ground to actually manufacture solar panels, wind turbines, etc. Then we need a lot of power to manufacture the associated product so we can build all these solar farms and wind turbines. And guess what …. we need a lot of base power to do that ……. from coal fired power generation! The wind and the sun cannot do that …. not yet anyway and unlikely in the next decade. 


The world is realising that coal fired power stations are a must. Germany is restarting coal fired power stations to provide more energy security and it is not the only European nation to do so. The UK has restarted some coal fired power stations to cope with the rising demand for more power. 


Australia has the cleanest coal in the world, but that is useless if the governments stop mining. Why is Australia a rich country ….. because it has an abundance of resources that the rest of the world desires. Our economy is floundering because of untenable policies. This needs to change and maybe, just maybe, commonsense will prevail. 


Until next issue, may everyone have a Happy and Safe Christmas!
