I was asked about power prices in Australia, and the Australian Industry Group said, via Innes Willox:

There's no industry interest in going backward on net zero. Reopening that debate is akin to asking Australian businesses to stop investing and stand by to watch the political equivalent of a refight of the Battle of Stalingrad. It serves no good purpose …

The ACCI chair, Andrew McKellar, said of their policy:

To characterise it at the moment, it seems to be a bit of a plan not to have a plan, unfortunately.

Dead right.
