The slogan ‘Don’t know, Vote No’ is pretty disingenuous. There is plenty of rational material to help inform your decision, hopefully to vote YES on 14 October.

Ambassador, congratulations on a job well done
Tonight, I farewelled friends & colleagues as I finish my term as Australian Ambassador to the United States. It has been a privilege to serve in this position, working with fantastic counterparts in the 🇺🇸 foreign service, political & community & of course the diplomatic corps.

Don’t kick the can down the road and leave this decision to the political whims of a future State treasurer. Where there is wriggle room for a future treasurer / government there can be no certainty on the outcome newcastleherald.com.au/story… @Dom_Perrottet @ChrisMinnsMP
Fragmentation is an opportunity for governments to do nothing says Jennifer Westacott AO at todays Regional Australia Institute Regions Rising summit - that is why we need coordination and collaboration in driving the vision/agenda for the Hunter region @cfthunter @RegionalAus

“Cruel hoax” or not a container terminal at Port of Newcastle is critical for the Hunter’s diversification, time to stop the blame game and for Federal and NSW governments to get behind this @CatherineKingMP @AlboMP @Dom_Perrottet @Matt_KeanMP newcastleherald.com.au/story…

Well done to PoN for backing itself and the Hunter region with this initial investment. A container terminal is not a ‘fanciful’ idea. It is time for the NSW gov’t to get behind this opportunity newcastleherald.com.au/story… @Dom_Perrottet @Matt_KeanMP @TaylorMartinMLC @DeanRoyGreen
Sunday afternoon in the pub at Bermagui, blues music and a big win for the Knights. In fact a quadrella weekend - Jets, Swans, Waratahs and the Knights - what are the odds on that

So Senator your point is? Estimates are that in 1913 the British Empire held sway over 23% of the world and in 1920, covered 24% of the world’s total land mass. Any thoughts of an “Empire”probably ended with the Hong Kong agreement in 1997. Time to move on Senator.
The British Empire was built on the back of coal
Isn’t the question we should be asking is “what will be the cost if not?”
how much will net zero cost?

That is such a sensationalist over-simplification of the gas shortage issues currently faced across Europe
I am deadset against net zero emissions. Just look at the disaster the UK is living through. They're switching off their industry to keep their lights on, and they are struggling to feed themselves. Net zero emissions would just make us weaker.
