And dear Dolly save us all – the MODELLING WARS ARE BACK.

For reasons not immediately clear, a reporter from the Australian seems very energised over modelling which sends all our eyes twitching back to 2019.

Q: Prime Minister, can you clarify – is the modelling on power prices still any part of Labor’s energy policy offering?

Albanese:

Our energy policy offering is all out there. The modelling was the modelling they put out. Our policy…

Q: You adopted your 43% target base off that modelling and 82% target, why are they still your targets if you’re now distancing yourself from…

Albanese:

I hope when you get the chance on the next – on the next leg where I assume you’ll be following around, to ask Peter Dutton what his 2030 target is.

Q: I will.

Albanese:

He doesn’t have a 2030 target. He doesn’t have a 2030 target. We have a 2030 target. We’re confident we’ll meet it and our policy is very clear. Our policy is for, same as this bloke’s [Roger Cook] policy, he just got elected and won 46 seats here in WA on, and the Liberal Party were reduced to seven and they just pipped the Nats on six, our policy is for renewables backed with firming capacity of gas, factories and hydro.

That’s our policy.
