My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to the statement by the Parliamentary Secretary for Climate Change and Energy Efficiency that, 'The introduction of a carbon price in Australia will not reduce global temperatures over the next five, 10 or 50 years.' With the forgotten families of Australia already struggling with the rising cost of living, why is the Prime Minister introducing a carbon tax that, for them, is all pain and no gain?
