Nationals leader Barnaby Joyce has warned winding back the nation’s $50 billion fossil fuel export industry will mean less federal government revenue to support the aged pension and disabled Australians as his colleagues warn they won’t be pushovers on any net-zero emissions pact.
“If people move away from it, then you have to move away from some of the support that comes in the way of pensions or healthcare or NDIS because the money just won’t be there.” “My colleagues will put forward their own views, and at the moment it’s a blank canvas,” Mr Pitt said. Senator Canavan said on Monday: “Trying to get to net zero is like trying to get back to COVID zero. Both are unattainable and it will cost us a bomb if we try.”
Regional communities might be the most affected by the more extremely fire's,drought and floods,Cities communities have donated Millions of the dollars to the region affected,Coalition PM Scott just wasted over 13Millions dollars to spend Billions for war,not for fire combat?
What Joyce & Canavan won't tell their constituents is the days of coal are very, very limited. LNP has no transition plan & will result in job losses. The global market for fossil fuels is changing. Fess up Barnaby!
Please. To be ‘vexed’ requires a level of neural and ethical functioning they don’t have.
Too much corruption to get rid of coal. Watching real journalism like friendlyjordies really shows how corrupt our pollies are, all aided by the media with there silence. Sure, the SMH exposes corrupt pollies all the time, but I suspect they report only 1% of what they know....
It's not regional communities. It is the vested coal mining industries that finance the nats. There are more regional workers harmed by climate change than there are workers in the coal industry but the coal industry commits millions for the sold to the highest bidder nats. Scum.
Was Barnaby_Joyce stinking drunk when he said that?
Barnaby_Joyce
If only he wasn’t as vexed by day drinking and shagging staffers. He might actually do his job for a change.
Barnaby Joyce should keep his mouth shhit and accept science in this matter. Any Nats that dont believe in climate change and what must be done about it should be kicked out.
Barnaby Joyce is not a farmer. He's a politician. Taking donations from fossil fuel companies, and in the palm of Gina and Twiggy. The Nationals are the mining party. Not for farmers. auspol LNPCorruptionParty Election2021 ClimateEmergency nationalparty
So no action then.
'vexed' or 'vexatious'?
The carbon objective is fake so what is the real agenda of the UN?
I suspect farmers are big environmentalists and may not be on board with Barnaby.
🥵Joyce literally admitted to governing for the 17% of farmers and coal workers in his electorate over the weekend (live on Insiders), and not for the remaining 83% whom he ALSO exists to serve. Is it any surprise when THIS abomination is his boss? ScoalMo NetZeroBy2050 auspol
Gina has spoken.
The National Mining party all their politicians available for hire ClimateAction Australia auspol
Nationals are always looking for a handout hey Barnaby?

‘Deadset against’: Morrison confirms talks under way on net zero amid pushback from NationalsScott Morrison has confirmed he is developing a plan to achieve net zero emissions but the Prime Minister still faces considerable pushback from some Nationals MPs who are “deadset” against the target | Gallo_Ways Gallo_Ways Ah yes he does have a plan. Another announcement. A semi-trailer full of announcements crammed in between thoughts and prayers and “I don’t steer the semi, that’s not my job” Gallo_Ways These two are holding the entire country back for the sake of keeping a few jobs of the past. How about they show real leadership and plan for the transition of these local economies into the feature so they don't miss out? Gallo_Ways These coal industry representatives poll less than the donkey vote. What is in their agreement with the Liberals to be in govt? Why is it a secret from the electorate? What gives them the right to primarily represent the coal & gas industry ?
