To go backwards on climate policy by removing the carbon Tax
Australia on Thursday became the first country in the world to abolish a price on carbon, with the Senate passing the governments repeal bills 39 votes to 32. After two weeks of negotiations, and several false starts, the Abbott government achieved its long-held ambition to axe the tax, to applause from government senators.
Speaking after the vote in the Senate, Mr Abbott rejoiced at the passage of the repeal bills, declaring today the Parliament finally listened. Today the tax that you voted to get rid of is finally gone.
Mr Abbott said he did not accept that with the carbon price now abolished, and legislation needed for Direct Action yet to pass the Senate, his government was leaving Australia without a mechanism to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. * +

You have to be as cretinous as Abbott to support this. * +
