David Pope's view: We shall fight them on what's left of the beaches (Canberra Times 3.5.2019)

In her ‘gotcha’ style of questioning Leigh Sales on ABC challenged Bill Shorten about the cost of his climate change policies. People with any real knowledge of the subject know there is no simple answer. What is clear is that we face an existential threat to our planet.David Pope in the Canberra Times pointed to the nonsense of  questioning by Leigh Sales and the Murdoch media on irrelevant detail - all in the name of so called ‘balance’.The main steam media is failing us dismally on climate change.(John Menadue)
