Energy is the single reason I hope the current govt holds. It will hold for more ~8 months (for constitutional reasons there cannot be a parliamentary elections 6 months before presidential elections). But I sincerely doubt it will survive 2011.

Then it is either the nuclear lobby (with no money to build nukes, but they will find a way to grab some commission) or the deficit-control-at-all-costs group.

PS - I am all for a balanced budget, but I would ring fence energy, like they currently say they do.
