(PREVIEW) COP26 | Honest Government Ad
Dear Patrons
Here's the preview for our latest Honest Government Ad - a message from the Australian Government to the world as we come together for this crucial UN Climate Summit (COP26) in just a few days.
Am just doing the finishing touches now so that it'll be ready just in time for Scott Morrison's arrival in Glasgow :)
I hope you like how it's sounding - I'll catch you again very soon with the finished video.
Hope you're all doing well out there <3

no ess; no more ifs, buts, or maybes ...... get it done !!!!!!
....... though link must be made at this point how developing countries need the help of major exporters & historically big emitters to fund their more rapid transition away
........ correctly identifies ongoing international demand for our fossil exports lying at the root of pace of transition .....
So sad. So true
I have tuned out more than a couple of times over the years to regain some calm. Only to return and find the same ongoing shit-f#!*ery in a different Sunday best suit. Thank you for re-instilling a sense of being able to do something about the standard I walk past, when it is total shit. Also for making me proper laugh 😂 🍻
Voetsak :)
Bingo…! Pure cuntanese…! One needs a dick-tionary to translate it.
Quite right to not let other cuntries [sic] off the hook. UK currently much keener to encourage international travel, particularly holidays, rather than, say, saving the planet or reducing virus spreading...
Cuntanese. There is finally a label.
You've highlighted just how much this government is bearing down and expanding fossil fuel extraction as fast as they can. I think this emphasis is hugely important. We are so far from going in the right direction. State capture makes their actions seem logical. Awesome work. Presented a thoroughly complete synopsis in three minutes with humour, class and a hint of the burning rage so many of us are feeling. Thank you.
Depressingly accurate summation! Sometimes I feel that the absence of accurate scrutiny in the mainstream is like being the only sane person in the asylum trying to explain what's wrong and no one wants to listen...
Great presentation, but I personally would refrain from mentioning the hypocrisy of other countries like Norway, Russia etc as this tends to let the Australian government off the hook; I would also exclude the negative comment about the Australian electorate. While it is accurate, I don't know if stating it achieves anything. The technology to achieve net zero emissions exists right now (I worked as an engineer in power systems, and can supply details). The Coalition won't adopt this technology for ideological reasons.
The only part of their policy response that is fully developed and funded is the press release, the advertising budget and the photographer that the Prime pooMuncher is taking to Glasgow
The Australian gov decides to Cop Out of Cop26 .... Great work JuiceMedia team
Refreshingly thoughtful commentary gracefully delivered, as ever. Love it!
Just adding to the 3 new coal mines that Susssan's approved, there are now 50 new coal projects planned, 5 already being constructed and 45 in the pre construction phase.
Brilliantly done as usual. And it’s really needed right now. Brave rebels from Extinction Rebellion are being arrested protesting on the “protest lawn” outside Parliament House in Canberra over the climate crisis and the government’s lack of response. We need everyone to help in this existential battle for the future of our children.
Absolutely love it how you call out everyone. Also may need an "Aww Sweetheart" T-shirt lol! Well done guys once again! And the Blah Blah Blah was a great touch!
Oh I want a ‘The Australian Way’ t-shirt! 😌
So true it bloody hurts!
Brilliant! I've been waiting for it - was sure you'd comment on COP26 as soon as I heard your gov't would be attending. Figured it was too big an even for them to miss the opportunity to give out the clammy handshakes, speak weasel words with forked tongues and sniff around for more fossil fuel sales ops. BTW did you catch the interview of the PM of Norway by the BBC in which she bragged that Norway didn't really use fossil fuel (hydro power, high percentage of EVs, etc.) and that there was no reason for Norway to reduce oil exports as what people did outside of Norway with oil was not Norway's business? I guess they have their own closed loop ecology and so don't need to worry about anything the rest of the world does with the oil they pay Norway for as it can't penetrate their private ecosystem (or her skull ...). Sheeeesh.
Yeah to be fair Norway is in a totally different class to Australia on climate - but since they make out to be such leaders, I thought it would be nice to point out their massive gas exports (9th in the world)
Love this, especially the way it gets stuck into our government while not letting others off the hook. I so wish they'd stop buying our coal and gas! Oh, and I second the suggestion above re Led By Donkeys.
Great 3 minutes. Can't stress enough that we are currently 'meeting and beating' 26% purely on the basis of trees not cut down; without that accounting chicanery, thanks to Howard's infamous 'clause 3.7', our emissions are actually greater then in 2005
Thanks Richard! It seems there has actually been a 2.9% reduction since 2005 (https://twitter.com/simonahac/status/1448912692794642434?s=20) but the rest of the 20% reduction our Govt is trying to take credit for is, as you say, due to land use. But yeah your point stands - the federal govt as been MIA and now wants to take all the credit.
Awesome work guys - Like Always - - - Love you over the moon and back. As a German I am particularly proud of you for "Fick Dich ins Knie". Great awesome outrageous shitfuckery.
Great job, it’s all there in 3 minutes.
Would be awesome if you could get Led By Donkeys (twitter handle @ByDonkeys) to do a projection in Glasgow at the same time.
Absolutely wonderful, at least 3 LOLs were had :) Great (and timely) work team
How about a line about planning without any modelling (a.k.a. a fucking clue) 😂
Hilarious and totally on the mark!
Australian Government...fluent in "c#ntenese" ...perfect! Love your work team! ❤️💯😎👍
i have to admit i am quite proud of that one
