Bush fires continue to cause destruction in Australia as firefighters work to prevent a mega fire in New South Wales from reaching a power station which generates ten per cent of the state's electricity. It's feared stockpiles of coal there could catching light causing untold damage. All this is made worse as the country endures record high temperatures and the government led by Prime Minister Scott Morrison is criticised for its response to the bush fires.
