‘Get rid of it’: Government’s net-zero targets are ‘not putting Australia first’

Liberal Senator Alex Antic has urged Australia to “get rid of net-zero” in order for the nation to get back on track.

“There is no reason why there … shouldn’t be a ring around this country, where we make and use everything including all of our cars as we used to, but also our defence industry and our pharmaceuticals,” Mr Antic said.

“If you want to boil it down, net-zero is not Australia first.”
