Just how stupid are we? 'Australia is one of the world’s top shippers of liquefied natural gas (LNG), but large volumes of Queensland production are locked into long-term export contracts, while pipeline limitations restrict how much gas can flow south on days of heavy demand and gas from WA cannot be transported east.'
Regarding Tasmania, utter BS. Tasmania is energy self sufficient and exports power to the mainland already. Hydro.

More corruption I think. Our politicians are shocking (probably have the boys in blue knock on my door soon if we copy the UK)
puff:
And what a load of crap we can't build a pipeline.
@puff and yet I've just read that the Africans have built a gas pipeline up the Atlantic coast & into the Mediterranean over 5000klms to deliver gas to Europe.
@puff
"Global pipelines – 30 times Earth’s circumference
According to the Global Energy Monitor, there were at least 2,381 operational oil and gas pipelines distributed across some 162 countries as of December 2020. The combined length of these pipelines is more than 1.18 million km (730,000 miles) – enough to circle the Earth 30 times."

@FrayedBear exactly.
@puff it reminds me that post 1945 the yanks offered to build a tollway between Sydney & Brisbane in return for 5 years of tolls from the road. The intelligent? Government of the day turned the offer down! No such road exists to this day.
puff:
@FrayedBear It's an excellent Hgy, Brissy to Sydney as soon as you hit the NSW border (funny about that). Shit's all over the Bruce Hgy in Qld.
@puff but it has taken 75 years to get to part good.
puff:
@FrayedBear It is rather recent correct.
