In this Garage Edition of The Court of Public Opinion, Jeremy Cordeaux covers everything from fuel security to flying pets and “woke” education reforms. With only 28 days of fuel left in reserve, Jeremy warns of Australia’s dangerous supply vulnerabilities. He tackles the South Australian “Voice” controversy, the hydrogen project that wasted $285 million, China’s net-zero hypocrisy, and the looming ban on petrol cars. Plus, he reacts to Julia Morris’ call for women-only airline seating, celebrates World Op Shop Day, and applauds Victoria’s move back to pen-and-paper schooling. It’s a mix of common sense, history, and hilarity — classic Cordeaux.
