Six Queensland Nationals MPs have reignited internal Coalition tensions on energy policy, demanding the Prime Ministers put his shelved 'big stick' energy laws to a vote during budget week.
Prime Minister Morrison's 'big stick' energy policy seeks to force energy companies to lower power prices and gives the government the jurisdiction to force the divestment if the companies are found to have misused their market power. In a letter to the Coalition executive, the group demanded immediate action, citing 'unsustainable' electricity prices in the Sunshine State.
Coal will drive up prices & emissions. These people have lost the enomomic argument (renewables are cheaper than coal & quicker to build) & they've lost the scientific argument (ClimateChange is a fact) but that wont stop them attempting more economic & environmental vandalism.
The invisible big stick policy they haven’t got any energy policies we have seen that over the last five years
Yeh, we need more 'big stick' laws, like big stick petrol, big stick private health, big stick insurance, big stick supermarkets, big stick banking and superannnuation. Just use the big stick on everything, that'll work.
all applying for jobs for when they lose their seats in the election
