Barnaby Joyce has lashed out at the"treacherous" chair of Australia's Climate Change Authority and former NSW Liberal treasurer Matt Kean after he spoke out against nuclear energy.The newly appointed chair of Australia's Climate Change Authority and former NSW Liberal politician Matt Kean is “treacherous” and “should have joined the Labor Party in the start”, Nationals MP Barnaby Joyce has claimed.
