BILL’S ALL PAIN BUT NO GAIN

BILL Shorten is conning you: selling you a massive global warming policy without saying what it would cost and what it would do.

Huh? Would you buy even a toaster without knowing either the price or whether it works?

So why risk buying the Labor leader’s scheme to radically change how we power our businesses and homes?

Shorten’s con was exposed again this week, when Channel 10 journalist Jonathan Lea asked him five times to tell us the cost of his plan to slash the emissions Labor claims are heating the world dangerously.

Labor says it will cut those emissions by 45 per cent by 2030 – and not just from power stations but the whole economy.

The costs will obviously be massive. Just the emissions cuts we’ve had so far have helped shut power stations and made your electricity expensive.

So how much more will Labor’s cuts cost?

Five times Shorten was asked on Tuesday and five times he refused to say. He was also asked several times yesterday and again didn’t answer.

Indeed, I’ve asked him what difference his policy would make to the temperature and he refuses to say that, either. He does not want you to know it’s all pain, no gain.

Doubt me? Then why won’t Shorten tell you either the cost of Labor’s global warming policy or the difference it would make to temperatures?

If you don’t know either the cost or the benefit, can you risk voting Labor?
