The Liberal Party feeling left out & humiliated has held an urgent Press Conference attacking Labor for striking a deal with The Greens on Environmental Laws. They say this is a “dark day for the mining industry.”

Ed Husic has demanded strong action to end “profiteering” among gas exporters and to force them to sell cheaper fuel for Australian use, as the former industry minister broke ranks with his Labor colleagues to support an independent MP’s motion regarding energy prices on the east coast.
