- Sky News host Chris Kenny says it is “hard to believe” Jim Chalmers is the Treasurer after his speech about nuclear energy today.
Mr Chalmers slammed the proposal of nuclear into Australia’s energy grid - labelling it the “dumbest policy ever put forward by a major political party”.
“That may have been the dumbest little summary of our energy debate that I have ever heard,” Mr Kenny said.
“He could have been actually describing his own government’s plans to replace our fossil fuel energy system with renewables.”
The dumbest thing ever put forward was voting in Labor anywhere .. get rid of them everywhere and forever .. never again
Too many dumb arses in Australia unfortunately.
Dumbest thing ever is voting for any politician
@@TheTramchannel Yeah, we always get one whoever we vote for. 🤔
Australian's are dumb. We make an effort to avoid confronting anything difficult and using our brains.
The problem with voting is the government always gets in.
chalmers has no idea.
Think of Chalmers every time you open your power bill, pay your mortgage and see your grocery bills go up with inflation.
@@roadblock2792 : Be a lot cheaper than all those renewable subsidies and the massive power bills we have now. Look at France, cheapest power in Europe, Finland second.
"Nuclear power brings down electricity prices by 75% in Finland."

@@buildmotosykletist1987 You willing to wait 30-40 years for nuclear power in Aus to finally become cheaper per kw than it is now? Small modular nuclear costs around $400 per kW, nuclear costs $240 per kW and renewables cost $140 per kW on average globally. Wake up mate, we don't even have the legislation or the industry anywhere in the country.
@@trentiify : France has the cheapest power in Europe. Nuclear power is cheaper than expensive renewables in Germany and the UK.
"Nuclear power brings down electricity prices by 75% in Finland."
@@trentiify : "Japan’s Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Power Plant Unit 6 took only 39 months for completion."
I'll wait the average of 8 years to build a nuclear plant.
For a moment there I thought Chalmers was talking about his governments decisions.
You're actually right - he was!
Didn't we all?
It's called psychological projection. Freud would have a field day with the Narcissistic lair in the government front bench.
20, 10 years ago I would have said no to Nuclear, but now with the rapid decline of Australia under Labor I will support nuclear 100%
and compared to 50 years ago and the advancements that are made since 2000 we are now on generation 3 and coming up to 4 ....they need to discuss and become aware , as ive taken the time to learn more about it, instead of watching the simpsons and basing it on that...all for it
@moystonadv3651 was only saying about the Simpson's effect to wife, almost too silly to be true!
I had the same view. I was against nuclear. Looking at what the renewables are doing to our landscape along with solar panels being constructed on farming land and the arrogance of the government for little consultation during the process, l am now for nuclear.
@@user-dv9ur7su2v Likewise with me. I have Labor to thank for that. Although I do want a serious discussion before we plow ahead, it's looking the case that nuclear is the winner.
What data shows Australia in rapid decline? The IEA admits that once an energy grid hits 30% renewables (which Australia is already at) nuclear energy is unaffordable. If we had of gone nuclear 20 years ago before renewables then yes it might have worked, but not now.
Labor are running scared - very scared
And I’m REALLY glad, keep bloody running Labor…🤬
The propaganda has started turning up in the letter box, local member listing her "achievements" with pictures of Sleazy
You know your onto something when Labor turn to personal attacks and misinformation propaganda to fear the public to their view. They don’t want a fact based debate because they know they’ll loose and it’ll prove everything they’ve told us since they’ve been in power is a lie
Yes, that was a forced grin
Chalmers can't have a civil debate about anything, condescending & arrogant right ! Total FW 😮
The epitomy of a smug smartarse, doesn't give a rip about such an important portfolio as Treasurer. This flunker is taking the piss out of real Australian hardworking taxpayers.
Arrogance and condescension Labor’s calling card. They don’t have policies and they could not manage a chook raffle.
Grim Jim is running scared he has just made the dumbest response to a nuclear Australian he made no sense
France has 56 Nuclear Reactors.
Most still near the border with Germany in Alsace ?
@@TennesseeHomesteadUSA Don't know where they are. Just aware they are there. 56.
and low CO2 emissions
And the most expensive energy in the world
…and Australia supplies France nuclear AND takes back the waste for disposal!!🤷♂️🤷♂️
Gee he is trying hard to badmouth the LNP policy, knowing well LNP have them by the Gonads. Jim is a full on Fiscal joke.
Jimbonomics=inflation up and no "cheeepa elekwishhitty"⚡💡
Chalmers is supposed to be the treasurer. He can't even get that right. What makes him think he's got answers for any other issues?
@@user-rm2pu7kp3w What makes Bowen the Climate Czar...? I always wondered why they do one portfolio then switch to another, is it any wonder they are confused
And lasts 50-70 years longer than your stupid windmill or solar panels.should call them replacables constantly replacing them
If that's the best "treasurer" Australia can offer .... you're SO SCREWED !!!
Yes we are
@@davidcruse6589 We SURE ARE…!! 😡😡
Chalmers still has his training wheels on and has no clue just like his boss.
quite so my life long labor vote is very shaky
The more labor say net zero, and renewables, the higher our power bills go.
And just to think they have given themselves a pay rise. Total idiots
DISGUSTING MOB…!!! 🤬😡
U mean TOTAL THIEVES?
It WAS the dumbest summary of that topic. Unbelievable.
Go Mr Dutton
Australia needs to move forward
Federal Treasurer…arrogant, considering his own ineptitude
Jim Charmers is Talking about Chris Bowen, surely
Unbelievable reply school kid antics
"the dumbest policy ever put forward" apart from Labor's mad "we are going to run an industrial economy" on the vagaries wind and solar
No to the voice and yes to nuclear.
No to Albos lies on both accounts
I'll just hold my breath and wait for Albos cheaper electricity NOT. These Labor clowns couldn't run a meat raffle at the local RSL.
Mr Dutton, about goddamn time.
Well done peter dutton good bold move decisive ill vote for him
Dutton for PM get rid of the useless one we have now and the clueless Bowen neither of them know what they doing fancy charmers talking about anyone being dumb??
Well done, Dutton!!
Glad Peter Dutton putting forward Nuclear power. Renewable are not sustainable or cheap. If you want net zero emissions and you want energy that is cheap and reliable, Nuclear is the way to go.
So Grim Jim and Albonzo are right and the rest of the world is wrong on nuclear. What a clown 🤡 show. I know which way Im voting. Bye Albonzo
AND don’t forget to add ‘Blackout Bowen’ as well..😡😡🤬
@@colleenrichards5662 True I can't believe I forgot that angry little A$$ hat !!
Well Jim you would know all about dumb
Well us Australians will talk soon 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺👏✅
Albanese "Fuck Head Fred" and his Muppets can Kiss their Arses Goodbye at the Next Election. And it can't come Quick Enough.
Trouble is Australia should have built nuclear power 20 years ago.
Ill be interested to see the next round of federal opinion polls. Go, peter dutton 😊
Jimbo!.... why don't you just ask Germany about that!..... or France!... just for starters..
Well said David!!
Thank you David.
Finally, some common sense.
Finland just brought a new nuke generator online, and the price of electricity crashed
What a goose!
Chalmers getting very defensive and running scared from the LNP common sense approach.
Chalmers can talk,,,he is the dumbest treasurer Australia has ever had in the dumbest government government we have ever had he and his cronies have screwed the Australian economy and reputation and security,,,they don't have any credibility!!
Shouldn't he be doing his own job. And the rest of them. They're getting very worried and defensive.
Labor ranting about being fiscally irresponsible....$450 m chucked down the drain on the Voice fiasco and the same amount again pissed up against the wall with a private jet for Fudd😂😂😂
I thought Jimbo would have at least a modicum of understanding of energy supplies, but alas, i was quickly proven wrong 🤔😂buffon bowen & jimbo are a pair of 🤡🤡🤣🤣🤣🤣
I want electricity & food so I will vote for nuclear.
Why stuff around with solar, wind, batteries, gas and more transmission when you can build nuclear on existing coal power station sites ??????????
well, Mr Littleproud may have just redeemed himself…..
Chalmers cannot manage inflation & Treasury doubt he has a clue on Nuclear😅
This week, i haven't been able to rely on the weather to dry my washing, let alone generate renewable electricity. The sun hasn't been hot enough and barely a puff of wind.
The problem with renewables you never stop renewing them I think they are best used on houses
This came out off mouth which just got 3 pay increases
Atomic generators will cover maybe several square kilometers as coal stations now use. However renewables cover thousands of square Ks and killing good arable farmland. What is the point of cooking dinner when there are no farmers left to produce food.
The people will decide in the next election if nuclear is a dumb idea
How does chambers account for our rising power prices with his policies
Easy, it is always the oppositions fault.
We have been waiting for this moment,an opposition party that works together will soon be the next government.Can barely wait.
The arrogance is repetitive, but still so unbelievable!
We all thought it was Bowen, now we will have a job sorting out who really is the most stupid Labor minister.
Albo, Bowen, Chalmers, Wong, Gallagher, eKaren, it’s a hard one.
@@evil17you forgot Tanya Penislick
They all are 😊
The dumbest thing to do would to stay on the current labor energy trajectory. Wow finally someone to take the country on the right path with an actual plan..
We need new ideas and a leader not leader who's got no balls to standup for australia.
Grim Jim get over it your power plans have cost Australians lots more money and black out Bowen what a waste Labor party has to go
Mr Dutton keep going you are on the right track you have all our family vote dont stop
key mistake is thinking that the transformation is a 10 year problem. Its a 20-30-50+ year programme to get to net-zero. Even then the replacement of materials from hydrocarbons must be addressed, together with steel, cement & aluminum manufacture. The renewable life cycle is typically 20 years, so nuclear can be second wave to replace gas too. Unavoidable as wind/solar cannot supply 24/7 power requirements, and batteries are not practical at the huge scale required. Finally there is no integrated planning across Eastern States Governments, power Companies and Federal Government.
Net Zero is prohibitively costly, impractical and totally unnecessary.
It is based upon ridiculous popular delusions.
Let's move Australia in to the real world make Australia great again
Peter Dutton has the ALP in a dilemma.
Ol’ Grim should stick to worrying about how to reduce our power bill by $275 before spouting more misinformation/disinformation
Sweden has a population of 10M and has 3 nuclear power plants supplying 30% of their energy
And sell it to their neibours @
That was him Spin doctor Jim he is full of it just like Albo lies broken promises how can we trust him lost all respect and credibility when his lips are moving he is lying
Chalmers has no idea, vote him out
Libs have made a start, now we need to get rid of "net zero" and then we are talking.
To All Climate Change Activists. Climate Change is Just a Fantasy. A Figment of the Imagination. So Wake Up and come back to the REAL WORLD.
Have thesepeople looked into the cost and problems with battery backup for the avoidance of blackouts. Intermittence is not acceptable especially if you. Get rid of petrol.diesel,gas, oil. Stoppages would destroy every service in the country. Base load security is impossible without constant supplies like gas or nuclear.
Britain has 5 nuclear power plants with more presently under construction
Was he confused and talking about renewables
Because it sounded actually like whats happening with renewables are doing
Not nuclar power
Very little of the renewable power is put into the power grid that we use
FFS. It is not Nucular, it's "Nuclear".
Homer Simpson 😅
Look. Fools mix with fools.
And this is why Albo and his team of idiots are a one tearm wonder. Well done, Peter Dutton and David Littleproud
Who wrote that spiel for Jim? :)
Paid 630 in two years a primary child could right better
The same speech writer SHITTER SHORTEN overpays for BS.
God only knows
Probably one of the 11 media consultants on the payroll or maybe the speech writer recently employed by Bill Shorten for $650,000 a year !!
Chalmers will not be around much longer so he’s irrelevant
Tell the people charmers, that you're cost repeat 1:42 s every 10 year. This is not a one off but repetitive.
The dumbest thing ever put forward is believing and voting for Labor.
The gaggle of activist sphincters currently running this beautiful country will always argue against nuclear as they could never admit to being so very wrong about their successful campaign to ban nuclear in Australia 25-30 years ago. These inflated ego's are the same reason we cant have (and always avoid) any sensible conversations about energy in Australia.
Omg!
This govt is such an embarrassment 😳
1 kg of coal runs a washing machine from 6 hours. Available 24/7
1 kg of oil runs a washing machine for 9 hours. Available 24/7
1 kg of renewables runs a washing machine for less than 1 hour. Available only when the wind is blowing and the sun is shinning. Nominally 30% of the time in Australia.
1 kg of Uranium runs a washing machine for 2000 years. Available 24/7. WARNING - The washing machine may not last 2000 years.
I wonder which energy source makes sense.
And Jim has the cheque book at the moment.
Worry isn't it?
Charmers is qualified for nothing sounds like he was talking about labour's policy's
What the hell was Jim talking about, what a lot of nonsense, and he is in charge of our money!
The dumbest thing is Jim Chalmers opening his mouth and talking
What politicians have invested in solar and wind farms, this is the true area of contention. I want a royal commission regarding this as it is a conflict of interest
The idiot treasurer forgets to tell you that Nuclear last up 70 years while Renewables are done after 15 years!
The other argument is the transmission lines are all ready to go for Nuclear!
This is the greatest proposal from an Australian political party in my lifetime
Vote the ALP out of office
Wind and solar is a milking cow for the rich , wind and solar will make Australia beholding to the rich to line their pockets.
Yep
Its only his stupidity that makes him so sure of his views.
What Labor is saying makes me think the opposition is the way to go.
Who wrote that speech, he really didn't understand what he was saying.
Quick un-thought of rant
Just spent three months in VIC, I think there were three days of sunshine.
When you agree with nuclear and the treasurer calls you dumb.
$8.5 Billion a nuke plant (CSIRO costing). or $1.5 TRILLION for the ALPs net zero plan to the end of the decade, a further $8 Trillion out to 2060 (Uni Melb, Uni Qld and Princeton costing).
$1.5 Trillion will get you 176 nuke plants, that run 24/7.
We need less than 10 nuke plants
Oh boy, those comments from Chalmers wont age well….
Net 0 means, another 0 at the end of your bill.
This will carry on with Labor daily
