LABOR'S "DISGRACEFUL" ENERGY DEAL

FAMILY budgets will be clobbered with soaring energy bills this Christmas despite Labor claiming its energy legislation will provide relief, says Angus Taylor, Member for Hume.
 
After six months of inaction and delay, the Albanese Labor Government has failed to deliver any meaningful relief for millions of Australian households and businesses facing skyrocketing bills. 
 
The Labor Party was elected on the promise of bringing power prices down by $275. The Prime Minister made this commitment on 97 occasions prior to the election. He hasn’t mentioned it since, said Mr Taylor. 
 
"This diabolical deal stitched up at five minutes to midnight will not reduce energy prices. Australian families will get a rude shock when they go to the mailbox and open their next power bill and see they’re paying more – a whole lot more.  
 
"The fact that this shambolic piece of legislation was dumped on Parliamentarians less than 12 hours before having to vote on it is a disgrace. 
 
"This is one the largest and most significant government interventions we have seen in a market in decades and the Albanese Labor Government is too arrogant and deceitful to allow proper consultation," he said.
