Refinery fire a wake-up call to politicians asleep at the wheel

A fire at the Geelong refinery, Australia’s second-largest, serves as a stark reminder of the country’s reliance on imported fuel. While the blaze, extinguished on Thursday, has temporarily reduced output, it highlights a decades-long neglect of energy sovereignty by federal governments. Just 30 days of fuel remain, prompting calls for urgent reforms and increased electric vehicle adoption.
