Power privatisation

After promising no "plan B", and promising that any further efforts to change the power industry will go through parliament, Costa and Iemma have decided to do a quick, sneaky, and grubby backroom attack by using regulation to privatise the electricity retail (Integral Energy, Energy Australia) and sell off new land to be used for future power generators.

As mentioned earlier we’ll be asking voters in the council election to send both Newcastle Labor and Sydney Labor a message that selling off public assets and doing grubby deals with vested interests in the big end of town just aren’t acceptable anymore.
