Labor acting Leader says Belt and Road will ‘improve our economy’
Poor old Richard Marles – Labor’s 2IC under Each-Way Albo – can’t catch a break when it comes to his love of the Chinese Communist Party.
Now today, ADVANCE is reporting on Marles comments on Xi Jinping’s Belt and Road Initiative.
Back in 2017, Marles told a room full of academics at Oxford University that “the Belt and Road Initiative is on a gigantic scale in terms of what it’s seeking to achieve.
“There will be a whole lot of good that comes from it. There’s no question. The building of infrastructure around the region will benefit a number of economies,” he said.
“We don’t rule out the potential that it could improve our economy as well.”
It gets worse.
Marles praised China’s human rights contribution and described it as a “force for good”.
He claimed that while Australia and China “have different political systems, China is, on balance, unquestionably a force for good”.
He said the rise of China “needn’t be worrying, necessarily”.
In reference to the CCP’s illegal construction of artificial island military bases in the South China Sea, Marles even said they’re merely “sovereignty disputes” that “Australia doesn’t take a position on and shouldn’t”.
Really, Albo?
Isn’t China the world’s largest polluter with 1000 coal-fired power plants under operation?
If the Solomons were so concerned about rising sea levels, they would’ve signed a security pact with the most carbon neutral countries in the world: war-torn impoverished central African nations.
This is QUINTESSENTIAL Labor-Greens insanity.
Labor and the Greens are SOFT on China.
They will NOT stand up against Chinese military expansionism. They are just too weak.
And they will SACRIFICE our strength and security to appease UNELECTED globalist bureaucrats at the United Nations and those Australians who’ve drank the Kool-Aid on the climate catastrophe prophecy.
Just ask Labor’s climate spokesperson Chris Bowen!
On the ABC’s Q&A last week, Bowen said Labor will “reduce our emissions by 45 per cent by 2030. That’s 92 months away. We’re committed to getting our renewables to 82 per cent of the national energy market. We’re going to require our biggest emitters to reduce their emissions as a matter of law. We’re going to rewire our nation to get much more renewables. We’re going to help people who can’t afford solar panels with solar banks. We’re going to have community batteries. We’re going to have electric vehicle tax cuts. This is all in the policy. That is how we reduce emissions.”
That’s also how you destroy Australian manufacturing and industry, Chris!
Bowen even said, “net zero is not enough. Net zero by 2050 is not enough. What happens in the next decade is what counts”.
So, there you have it.
The Labor party thinks “net zero” is NOT ENOUGH.
Labor will FORCE our biggest companies to reduce their emissions and that means your job will be at risk.
And Labor says renewables will power 82 PER CENT of the grid under an Albanese government.
Vote wisely, Australia!
