Electricity prices will be lower when there is more supply. There is more supply now than there ever was when you were in government. We are building electricity generation hand over fist here, and the big obstacle to electricity generation programs and transmission projects in the regions—of course we have to work with regional communities and work these issues through. But it's the silly billies wandering around, stoking fear, stoking resentment—Senator Cadell, Senator Canavan and all these characters—and who are wandering around in a campaign against Australian industry and a campaign against blue-collar jobs, doing everything that they can to close down Australian industry.
