Lake Onslow project
Govt (IE taxpayer) does all the feasibilty studies says it'll work
Govt under National says no it won't
Govt under National fast tracks it for private company that says we'll make tons thanks for the free feasibility studies. We look forward to huge profits thanks to electricity users being forced to buy it (aka YOU)
