Josh Frydenberg (Kooyong, Liberal Party, Minister for the Environment and Energy) Share this | Hansard source

It's in your election platform, it's in the motions that you joined with the Greens and it's in your reckless 45 per cent emissions reduction target!

After the experiences of Labor governments in South Australia and Victoria, which oversaw the closure of Northern and Hazelwood, we've seen the higher prices and the less-stable system that flows from closing coal-fired power stations. But you don't hear the member for Hunter speak out for the workers in his electorate. He waves the white flag! He's not interested in the workers at Liddell. You don't hear from the member for Shortland about those workers at Vales Point. You don't hear from the member for Paterson.
