Nationals Senator Matt Canavan has vowed to cross the floor and vote against any attempt by the Morrison government to legislate a net zero target by 2050.

“It’s not the results that are important, because you can get any result you want… what you need is the assumptions and the inputs that have gone to generate that result,” he said.

Speaking to Sky News Australia while a joint Coalition party room meeting was being convened in Canberra, the Queensland Senator called for a “credible plan” to be put forward.

mattjcan is about as likely to 'cross the floor' as his mate, the full-of-hot-air Member for Manila. For a start, where are you crossing to, Cosplay ... ?

Cross the floor to where exactly? He knows ALP will vote for net zero doesn't he? This dude has completely lost the plot.

Matt Canavan should resign. If he’s not going to be part of the solution, he’s part of the problem.

Mateo, the Cosplay champ!
