So where were all of those people who think that solar is so great they stuck panels on their roofs for us to pay off. Even a few of the 6000? Probably at home thankful the scheme has been stopped now before it causes electricity bills to get even bigger. If all our electricity came from panels our bills would be 4 times as large. $5000 for 8000kWh.

All of those signs could have been summarised with one simple message: “PROP US UP”

How come they’re all dressed as solar panel installers?

Props to the kneeling guy with shorts on in this weather. I dips me lid to you sir!
