Show Notes
The theme for today’s episode is interference, both from bureaucrats in markets, and from activist shareholders in the private sector. AGL is a good example of the latter, and we’ll look overseas for precursors to what’s happening in our local energy systems, particularly at Europe and the head of the UN calling for increasing taxes on fossil fuels. And we’ll consider the potential for the largest interference in our energy systems – nationalisation.
