Luke Grant is joined by Angus Taylor, Liberal member for Hume / Minister for Industry, Energy & Emissions Reductions, who chimes in on the new gas fired power station in the Hunter Valley that unbelievably the Labor party essentially endorsed yesterday.

The government says Labor’s back-flip over a taxpayer-funded, gas-fired power station in the Hunter Valley was based on short-term political motives, not conviction, and relied on a heroic assumption that green hydrogen would be commercially viable by 2030.

In light of Monday’s Newspoll where it appears Anthony Albanese is cruising into the lodge, there must be deep concerns on the ground three of its seats in the Hunter Valley, also known as Labor heartland.

Labor has dropped its long-held opposition to plans by the government to build this $600 million gas-fired peaking plant to provide back-up to the burgeoning renewable energy sector.
