Anthony Albanese (Grayndler, Australian Labor Party, Deputy Manager of Opposition Business in the House) Share this | Hansard source

To save the time of the House, I make this personal explanation on behalf of the member for Wills as well as for myself. Today’s Herald Sun has in it an article by Andrew Bolt, in which he suggests:

Religious bigots are dangerous in politics. Just see what federal Labor frontbenchers Kelvin Thomson and Anthony Albanese will do in the name of their green faith.

In this article about climate change, Andrew Bolt goes on to question what both of us have said—that is, that there is a scientific consensus concerning global warming. Both the member for Wills and I know that, due to the intergovernmental panel on climate change, some 5,000 of the world’s top scientists do have a consensus on climate change.
