Tasmanian EPA says it was not told extent of Firmus data centre generator plans

Tasmania's EPA is worried about the extent of AI data centre company Firmus's planned diesel generator use, saying it is much more than initially disclosed.

Typical of the Rockliff government to get behind this sort of scam.

Rockliff is a fucking scumbag

Sadly, Taswegians keep reinforcing the stereotype that we're all fucking stupid by voting for conservative arseholes

That's OK next election he will lose a few seats to Lee Hanson's mob just to prove we will vote for the Leopards Eating Faces party with gusto.

It really would help if we had candidates that actually had a spine and morals. Even if they do they get targeted by the media for fringe affiliations.

This always comes back around to billionaire backed media and lobbying.

It’s easy to say hey you’re voting wrong when no good options are presented or the media is pushing headlines to scare. Don’t underestimate people’s mindset when they believe something. I’m not saying I have an answer just that blaming the individual tends to have an opposite effect to hoped. They seem to slide further into it.

We do.

We know they have the spine etc as well, there’s enough coverage out there on them and what they’re doing.

It’s squarely on us. I’ve been voting Green for 35 years.
