In short, Dutton’s energy plan and its costings cannot be trusted. Just like his inability to develop any economic strategy to bring inflation down and improve the cost of living, Dutton’s energy plan is yet another con.
LNP would be in exact same position if it was in govt during that time.
Still, it will accuse Labor of being unable to manage its budget.
