Tom ElliottHOST
133693, mornings at 3aw.com.au. Calls and emails are ahead, as they always are, at a quarter to nine.
Tom ElliottHOST
It is 12 to 9, emails mornings at 3aw.com.au. Nat says, I agree that MPs should not live in the inner suburbs and represent outer suburbs, which is what a lot of them do.
Tom ElliottHOST
Nat says, my member of parliament, Lily D'Ambrosio, has missed all the wonderful roadworks in Mill Park for the past 10 years while she lived in the inner northern suburb of Brunswick.
Tom ElliottHOST
It's a good point.
Tom ElliottHOST
And she joins...
Tom ElliottHOST
Colleagues like Lily D'Ambrosio and Gabrielle Williams at the state level who do not live in the seats that they claim to represent.
Tom ElliottHOST
And that word represent is important because we do have representative government.
Tom ElliottHOST
The idea is that each area, you know, elects a person from amongst them who goes to the parliament, you know, Spring Street or up in Canberra and represents partly the interests of their electorate.
Tom ElliottHOST
I think it might be Surrey Hills.

Dan TehanGUEST
That's what the Japanese, for instance, who have looked seriously at hydrogen, wanted it, but Chris Bowen wouldn't look at that.
Dan TehanGUEST
And I can tell you, because there was a proposal in Victoria, um, which the Japanese were very interested in, um, that collapsed because Lily D'Ambrosio, who was the energy minister, fortunately for Victoria, she's, um... was sacked and is now gonna retire at the, uh, election, but she wouldn't allow the Japanese to use either coal or gas to get the hydrogen started.
Dan TehanGUEST
So this has just once again just been complete and utter green folly from Chris Bowen.
Clinton MaynardHOST
In fairness, though, Dan, in fairness-
Karl JensenHOST
Actually, whilst I mention that, I found out about that wind farm thing.
Karl JensenHOST
We have a new energy minister in Victoria and a big shout out to Lily D'Ambrosio, who has been the most amazing supporter of renewables that we've seen in decades in Victoria.
Karl JensenHOST
And obviously now she gets to retire and have a break.
Karl JensenHOST
So fantastic.
Karl JensenHOST
Hats off to Lily D'Ambrosio.
Jess McPhersonHOST
Hear, hear.
Jess McPhersonHOST
Big shoes to fill.
TonyAUDIENCE
You know, you've got the premier, which would be the chairman of the board.
TonyAUDIENCE
You've got his board, which are the ministers, and they make decisions on behalf of their shareholders.
TonyAUDIENCE
And if I could use the analogy, the shareholders here are the, the taxpayers of Victoria.
TonyAUDIENCE
This man should resign.
Michael DanbyGUEST
We've also got a Victorian minister who resigned with...
Michael DanbyGUEST
Jacinta Allen and Lily D'Ambrosio, who basically destroyed for 10 years the Victorian energy grid.
Michael DanbyGUEST
So we're having to import gas from Queensland.
Jacqui FelgateHOST
That's true.
Cam WalkerGUEST
Of course, there's been significant changes in the last month with Premier Jacinta Allen stepping aside and Ben Carroll stepping into that role and a restructure of all the positions.
Cam WalkerGUEST
So Lily D'Ambrosio, who had been the Energy and Climate Minister previously, for the last three terms of government, deeply entrenched in that position, and now she just needed to step aside.
Cam WalkerGUEST
So there's been really profound changes.
Cam WalkerGUEST
And, of course, as the new Premier, Ben Carroll has to kind of differentiate himself from previous leadership.
