Personally I don’t think the world works like that and so I’m a bit concerned. I just hope they don’t get voted in. Or if they do get voted in Tony Abbott immediately retires to work in a shelter for smuggled budgies and Malcolm Turnbull immediately takes over, as he actually understands basic science.

Not that any political party can make wind and solar go away, but they can still do a lot of damage. Personally I’d rather have a Prime Minister that considers climate change to be a serious problem than one who does not. For our leader of the opposition’s unwise words on the subject one can go here:
