Brown wants to destroy economy
LABOR and trade union figures have ridiculed an offer by the Greens to back a carbon tax if the PM agrees to shut down coal-fired power.
…..Senator Brown wrote to the Prime Minister offering to support legislation putting in place a fixed-carbon price of $23 a tonne from July 1, 2011.
Yesterday Senator Brown said the deal would involve “an end to polluting coal-fired power, a national energy efficiency target and an end to clearance of native forests and woodlands”. “This is breakthrough politics,” he said.It’s breakthrough politics alright, it’s insane politics from a wacko leader. Who could possibly vote for a party that has the destruction of the economies of Qld, NSW and Vic as it’s policy?
