I'll withdraw and I'll replace that with 'Mr Shorten'.

In October, 2016 Labor voted down a motion in favour of shutting down coal-fired power stations. Sorry, Senator Williams, your home state will be impacted if Liddell goes, and they are certainly supporting that process. Labor has said they want to force the closure of power stations. They have committed to a 50 per cent renewable energy target. They have said it can only be done by shutting down coal. You have got to come clean with the Australian people about which power stations you are going to close, which workers you are going to sack, and release to the Australian people the real cost of your reckless policies on the Australian economy.
