“He (#PeterDutton) cites #DataCentres in the US where those #tech companies are having conversations with nuclear power providers:

The beauty of an #investment like #nuclear into the #Hunter region for example is you can attract the data centres which is exactly what is happening in the US. #Apple and #Oracle and #Microsoft, or these #companies are willing to spend tens of billions of dollars but they are only having conversations with #NuclearPower providers.”

#Straya gov cant #science or #compute, the LNP are garbage at business. Nuclear generation is #toxic. #Multinationals avoid tax.

“Donald Trump was seen only months ago as a disruptive force who brought huge danger to #AnthonyAlbanese at this election campaign.
But things changed when the US president brought chaos and confusion to world markets and became an economic risk to #Australia with his #tariff policies.

Now we have hard #data on how this is reshaping the #election – and ️hurting #PeterDutton️ at the halfway point of the #campaign.”

For all those who can’t read behind the lines? #Straya is not #Merica.
