Barnaby Joyce is introducing the scrap net-zero bill, where he is blaming all the world’s ills, as well as the domestic issues, on net zero.

This bill will be going nowhere. Labor will let it run though because it provides cover for the bare minimum it is doing, and makes it looks so much better than what it is.

Joyce has moved on to ‘the defence of our nation’ as being under threat because of net zero.
