One Nation Leader, Pauline Hanson, introduced a private members’ bill on Net Zero as a Litmus test for the Coalition.

It failed to pass.

Ms Hanson dipped the bit of paper in, and it came out ‘moderate’. For now, that’s okay. No one expected an ideological revelation from the Coalition in the second sitting week. However, the bill succeeded in staking out the ground for an upcoming civil war on the conservative right.

There is no room for a half-hearted embrace of an ideology that claims to be the remedy for a climate apocalypse. The con preaches theft, revenge, and system change. Supporting the lie is not virtuous, it is an act of complicity.

Since the 90s, vague acknowledgments of environmental responsibility signed by Australian politicians grasping for relevance have turned into a campaign of international extortion championed by so-called ‘courts’ and unelected bodies that want to see the Australian people bankrupted under the banner of ‘climate justice’.

Climate Change is communism in camouflage and Net Zero is its banner.

We should treat it with the same revulsion as the red triangle of Hamas unveiled on Parliament House or, if the Greens get their way, the flag of an Islamic-terror held regime marching across the Sydney Harbour Bridge within sight of the ‘gas the Jews’ chants.

Senators Alex Antic and Matt Canavan should be commended for their conviction earlier this week, supporting the demise of Net Zero. Others will join them. In addition to One Nation, Senator Ralph Babet also voted in favour of the private members’ bill.

Senator Walker, the 21-year-old youngest politician in Parliament, screeched at veteran Pauline Hanson that she had a ‘severe lack of knowledge’ when it came to farmers and Net Zero. Her behaviour was almost as cringe and ignorant as Senator Wong lecturing Senator Price about Indigenous Affairs.

‘Charlotte said she grew upon on the farm,’ Senator Hanson replied, ‘a farm that uses diesel and petroleum products to actually work. I don’t think she really understands what Net Zero is.’

The list of names of Coalition members who have said in private that Net Zero is a lie, a farce, tacky politics, and a danger to Australia are many … and yet they did not have the courage to stand. Yet. They will.

Others are waiting for Sussan Ley and Dan Tehan to conduct their Net Zero listening experiment, humouring their colleagues. If you’re doing that, you are a useful idiot of the moderates and would be wise to stop playing along.

Meanwhile, a growing number of Nationals have joined former Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce outside Parliament to declare war on Net Zero and apologise for remaining quiet while in Cabinet.

It is a necessary apology after the Nationals went along with the Liberals in supporting an emissions target through gritted teeth.

Now, on social media, they meme and rally with voters.

Young people are watching with interest, which is no doubt why both Labor and the Liberals support the eSafety Commissioner’s vision of censorship. Donald Trump wiped out the Democrats by mobilising the youth against Woke thanks to memes on TikTok and X. Net Zero will suffer ‘death by laughter’ if it is not coddled by the State.

Flanked by senior members of the Nationals, Mr Joyce asked the cities of Australia if they were ‘prepared to hurt the poor’ when it came to Net Zero.

‘You don’t feel virtuous if you’re hurting people…’

It is a line that might work on the Teals. They may not care about the ‘evil’ farmers and their cows, but they will mind when their luxury wine holidays vanish and wind turbines shadow their beach houses. Right now, their conversations have switched from ‘the Voice’ and ‘climate’ to, ‘Oh shit! My super!!!’

Yes, the way to a Teal’s heart is through their retirement fund.

Green things made them rich. Communist things make them poor.

Their emotional attachment to the Western saviour complex is more of an excuse than an absolute belief.

On the topic of Net Zero, Senator Canavan added:

‘The average Australian has just suffered since we announced Net Zero. Why, if coal is the cheapest form of power, isn’t the government using it? It’s about time we’re not led by people who clearly don’t have a grasp of how the world works.’

Mr Joyce also put forward his own private members’ bill seeking to scrap the 2025 emissions reduction target.

Maybe a few disgruntled Liberals will stand beside Mr Joyce. Not Ms Ley, of course.

Let’s face it, Ms Ley is the last-ditch effort by the moderate faction to remain in power. She is their Teal-esque answer to winning back the rich north shore seats. What Ms Ley is not is the most talented, charismatic, or convincing leader inside the Coalition and now that the other members have nothing to lose and are staring down oblivion, there will be a factional fight ignited by Net Zero.

If the conservatives within the Coalition are smart, and I hope they listen, they will use Net Zero as the mechanism to rid themselves of the moderate faction.

Ditching Net Zero is the perfect ideological tool to regain Menzies’ Forgotten People and Howard’s Battlers.

And it will destroy the green corruption that empowers the parasitic bureaucracy.

Donald Trump taught conservatives a critical lesson: taxpayer money keeps the Left alive. Cracking down on finance streams such as USAID crippled the Democrats and their insidious global activist network. Net Zero is a river of gold feeding the Left in Australia and every vested interest will fight to keep it alive, but when it’s gone, the conservatives will see a free and fair political landscape return.

Killing Net Zero will not only save Australia, it will save the Treasury, the natural world, and the conservatives.

The Australian people need to believe in politicians again. They have to feel as if there is someone fighting for them in Canberra and not just seat-warming for the salary or padding out their private sector future.

This may be the last chance conservatives get to stand for truth and the people of Australia.
