Shadow energy minister Ted O'Brien has unleashed on the Albanese government, claiming some Australians cannot"heat nor eat at night" because of Labor's policies, prompting a stinging rebuke from Energy Minister Chris Bowen.Shadow energy minister Ted O'Brien has used a speech to Parliament to brand Energy Minister Chris Bowen"consciously incompetent," sparking a brutal exchange between the pair over power prices.
Mr O'Brien took his attack a step further on Monday, delivering a scathing speech about Mr Bown's handling of power prices and the net zero transition. But Mr O'Brien continued to assert that many households were now faced with difficult choices as they struggled to pay bills, suggesting unaffordability was even forcing those in an otherwise secure financial position to seek help from charities and non-profits.
"This is now not just those who have always been struggling in the lower socioeconomic bracket, but middle Australia, more and more families coming for help because they cannot afford to live." "I gave this Minister the benefit of the doubt over the first year or so in office. I thought to myself, 'I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt, he is unconsciously incompetent'," the shadow minister said.
Rising to respond, Mr Bowen wasted little time rubbishing the shadow energy minister's claims, using Mr O'Brien's own words to describe the opposition's energy plans. "He opens more questions than he answers when it comes to his own energy policy and that's deliberate because the answers are no good," Mr Bowen claimed.
