    Sorry, by “standing in the way of” you mean “pushing for improvements to…and succeeding”? That “standing in the way”?

    That’s absolute hilarity. More ridiculous than when Laborites criticise their actions regarding Rudd’s climate policy. Because at least that one appears to be a valid critique of the Greens if you don’t have all the details (like how Rudd’s policy would have no reduction in greenhouse emissions for 25 years). But this? Even with the most cursory of looks, the Greens did the right thing here.

      Can’t agree more, the HAFF was and frankly still is weak. All Labor has to do is pull some of the $14.5 billion in fossil fuel subsidies and they could easily build a ton of housing right now…

      Or that a better climate policy came only a few years later but they have somehow memory holed the whole thing. Yes, Abbott tore the whole thing up but I’d wager he would have took an axe to Rudd’s policy too.
