Yeah, well Greens are well known for their betrayals so I stick to my prediction that, with a lot of waffle and some bulldust meaningless amendments the Greens will help their good friends the Libs.
Do you acknowledge the Greens have moved even further to the right and have lost a lot of support because of that?
Glenn Lazarus accuses Government, Labor of 'dirty deal' over renewable energy target
Independent Queensland senator Glenn Lazarus has accused the Government and Labor of doing a "dirty deal" to reduce the renewable energy target.
The Coalition and Labor have agreed to a new target for renewable energy of 33,000 gigawatt hours down from the existing target of 41,000.
Senator Lazarus supports the higher target.
"I cannot and will not be part of this dirty deal that reduces Australia's renewable energy target (RET) and our country's commitment to the renewable energy sector," he told the Senate.
"If the Abbott Government and the Opposition are successful in reducing Australia's renewable energy target, Australia will become the first country in the world to reduce a RET.
"I cannot and will not be part of this despicable act."
