Nationals MP Keith Pitt says, “off the back” of Labor’s budget they “cut all the things that were supporting gas exploration”.

“They cut the programs for carbon capture and storage for example – a technology which is being used around the world,” Mr Pitt told Sky News host Andrew Bolt.

“They’ve sold 600 of these high-pressure pumps for CCS and yet in Australia well it’s just not going to be used by the Labor government.”

Labor ‘wasted two hours attacking’ Scott Morrison: Keith PittNationals MP Keith Pitt says the Labor Party “wasted two hours attacking” former prime minister Scott Morrison amid the motion to censure him in parliament. Mr Pitt says, “to spend that time in the parliament on an attack on an individual I just think was wrong”. “I actually think people won’t like it at all, they’re out there worried about being able to pay their bills and their mortgages and their fuel,” Mr Pitt told Sky News host Andrew Bolt. “And everything else that continues to go up and Anthony Albanese and the Labor Party wants to spend the parliament’s time kicking Scott Morrison.” LNP wasted 9 years … Never a waste of time. Just making sure his place in History is ensured. A waist of fkn time & clearly a political & virtuous vendetta against Morrison/LNP. A (new) low point in Australian political life.

Pitt denies Nationals split over VoiceA Nationals MP has been forced to defend the party's position on opposing an Indigenous Voice to Parliament following speculation of internal division over the constitutionally enshrined body. It's not a democratic position. The voice should be welcomed as any other elected member of parliament who represents the many areas of Australia where indigenous peoples live. Nobody forced him He’s not even the leader of his party LNP are voting against Parliamentary democracy Do they understand the significance of that? Why isn't this man in gaol? Over the past decade he's extracted $250m in taxpayer funds committed to a Voice based on consent from signatures to a blank sheet. Prior to that a small fortune for a costly imported education scheme that achieved next to nothing. Crime shouldn't pay.
