Labor rejects this motion. It not only verbals me but is full of the type of half-baked theories and accusations Senator Rennick is quickly becoming infamous for. This, after all, is the senator who is convinced the Bureau of Meteorology is part of a climate change conspiracy. Not a day goes by where Senator Rennick doesn't sound more and more like Senator Roberts. The people of Queensland should breathe a sigh of relief that it is the Labor government of Premier Palaszczuk that sets Queensland energy policy rather than Senator Rennick. I think we're all starting to learn exactly why so many of Senator Rennick's colleagues roll their eyes every time he stands up to say something in the chamber.
