Pretty sure this is what 95% of the state is wondering as well. Really wish he'd come out and announce what they're planning to do.
Build a new airport at Monarto?

My misses has had 9 power outs this financial year. Once you hit 10 you get a small reimbursement for your trouble. Since they came and did some work in her area to stabilise the power issues, she has had more. Wonderful work.

hahahaha, Was waiting for it..

Seriously though, if we've got that much money to build an airport we don't need, we've got enough to improve the SA Power infrastructure.
The SA power infrastructure (generation and distribution) is privately owned thanks to John Olsen's Liberal government selling it in the 1990's. So short of giving tax payers' money to a private company to spend on their assets there is really nothing the state government can do.

inb4, but it was Labor's fault they had to sell it.

Ah, the state bank fiasco, still number 1 entry in the "SA Liberals childrens book of excuses"

You have any old band shirts that you are selling?

I'm selling the last of them now. All the best ones either fell apart with age or I stupidly gave away years ago.
Yesterday some guy in Japan bought a Descendents 'Milo Goes To College' shirt bought in '84 that was so thin it was see thru, and had all the print cracking. He paid $50 for it.

Yea it's like on the flip you get oldies who prefer to leave the AC off until they almost pass out lel
My 96yo Nanna is one of them. I keep telling her to crank up the bills, it's not like she's going to have to pay them.

There may be some load shedding over the next couple of days, but that always happens a bit during hot spells.
I'm not going to defend Jay Wetherill here, but what exactly is Stephen Marshall going to do about power issues other than his usual bitching and moaning and making lame commercials where he sits with regular people and pretends he's "got this"?
Have had the displeasure of actually interacting with Stephen "Man O' The People" Marshall through a work project. A more self-absorbed, wank stain you could not meet. He actually thinks he's important.

Send me a link to your stuff please. I'd like to snoop around.
