As I consider the future and look forward to the year 2023, I have resolved to make the following solemn New Year resolutions. Resolutions, I believe, will put us on a road to progress and prosperity for all citizens.

I will no longer accept any statements or policy pronouncements that cannot be proven to be factual. Therefore, claims that ‘climate change’ is the greatest risk to our future are repudiated. It is the same with statements like, ‘Renewables can supply all of our power needs!’ followed by the ludicrous claim that renewable power will be cheaper.

In summary, I will, in 2023, reject all climate change abatement policies. As a starting point, we should withdraw from the Paris Accord.

I will loudly call out all those who have, by their pompous pontification, proven that the Gods have already deprived them of reason and soon they will be seen to be mad.

It is a future that can only be directed by men of courage and conviction. Conviction to act honourably and always speak the truth.

In the New Year I will not accept anything less than that only by building dams can we control our vast water resources to ensure permanent water and flood control.

Finally, I resolve that Australia must build the infrastructure neglected for so long that will provide our people with permanent water, power, gas, and fuel.
