Anthony Albanese (Grayndler, Australian Labor Party, Prime Minister) Share this | Hansard source

This quote is a cracker. It's about how things can cost something but apparently be free. In spite of the fact that the Leader of the Opposition doesn't believe in costing policies, here's one. He said: 'Do I think there are communities out there that want a $10 billion facility'—there's a costing for you; $10 billion for a small nuke plant—'and potentially want to get free electricity for everyone who lives in sight of that nuclear reactor?' There you go. It's going to cost $10 billion, but the energy will be free! Why didn't we think of that?
