So let's get this straight, Sob Sob Sarah Henderson (https://hypalnk.com/iem12) posts a 'Peter Propaganda Piece' that completely ignores facts and reality.

Note that Sobby Sarah turned off comments as she KNOWS this would cause MASSIVE backlash to the bullshit

HERE are the FACTS that #PeterDutton chooses to omit and gaslights us all with:
🚨 Peter Dutton’s Power Price Propaganda: Another Day, Another LNP Lie 🚨

Ah, Peter Dutton, the self-appointed Nostradamus of energy policy, out here peddling the same ol’ Liberal playbook – mislead, fearmonger, and hope no one checks the receipts. Let’s break down this latest round of LNP wankfuckery.

🔥 THE $642 BILLION LIE 🔥

Dutton is waving around a $642 billion figure like it's gospel truth. Reality check? That figure is from a report commissioned by THE #LNP, conveniently funded to scare the pants off voters. Frontier Economics cranked out this number based on their fantasy scenario, NOT Labor’s actual policy. Meanwhile, the Australian Energy Market Operator (#AEMO) pegs the real cost of necessary infrastructure at $122 billion – an investment that’ll save us money and emissions in the long term.

But hey, why let facts ruin a perfectly good scare campaign, right?

THE $1,000 SPIN

Then there’s Dutton’s claim that power bills are up to $1,000 more. Emphasis on "up to," because that’s his little sleight of hand. He cherry-picks the absolute worst-case scenario to inflate the narrative. What he doesn’t mention? The ABS recently reported a 17.9% fall in electricity prices over the past year, thanks to Labor’s rebates and actual policy work.

The $1,000 figure is about as genuine as a "free steak dinner" from a timeshare salesman – technically possible, but mostly hot air designed to dupe you.

💡 THE REAL LNP TRACK RECORD 💡

Here’s the kicker: Dutton and his mates are blaming Labor for price rises they deliberately hid from the Australian public.

#AngusTaylor and Scott Morrison changed legislation to push back the announcement of electricity price hikes until after the 2022 election. The Australian Energy Regulator’s Default Market Offer, showing increases of up to 18.3%, was quietly delayed so you wouldn’t know about the LNP’s mess until it was too late.
They knew these increases were coming, and instead of being honest, they pulled a classic Morrison move – dodge, delay, and deceive.

🧐 WHY THIS MATTERS 🧐

Dutton and the Liberals have one goal: keep you angry and misinformed. Whether it’s pulling figures out of thin air, twisting facts, or hiding the truth, they’ll say and do anything to win you over.

The truth is this:

Labor inherited a broken system gutted by a decade of LNP neglect. Global factors, like the war in Ukraine, caused price spikes. Labor’s actions, like rebates and investment in renewables, are already driving prices down (17.9% down, to be exact).

The Liberals lie because they have no plan, no solutions, and no shame. Don’t let Dutton’s fearmongering distract you from the truth: the LNP ran our energy system into the ground and now they’re hoping you’ll forget.

🐘 FINAL WORD 🐘

Peter Dutton wants you to think Labor’s the problem when it’s been Liberal lies all along. The $642 billion is a sham. The $1,000 claim is spin. And the LNP’s energy legacy is a dumpster fire.

Don’t fall for it. The only thing the Liberals are “up to” is their necks in their own BS.
