Finance Minister Simon Birmingham has dismissed suggestions the Nationals are dictating climate change policy ahead of a crucial meeting of the governing coalition's junior partner.

Energy and Emission Reductions Minister Angus Taylor is addressing the Nationals meeting, spelling out how the plan will protect jobs and regional communities. Asked in Sky News' Sunday Agenda program whether the Nationals are dictating climate change policy, Senator Birmingham said: "Certainly not".The federal government is yet to commit to net zero by 2050. What about the states?

But he said there is no point pretending that some parts of the community are not concerned about the implications of these decisions.

Just get village change started so our children can benefit. Oh wait it will be 30 years before anything is done. All the current policitions won't be around. Only our children will be running the show. Thank God for that. They will make the difference. 😎

If you listen to Barnaby Joyce I think his views are reflected by the Liberals in policy terms to date. Would make the statement a lie in my book.

Certainly looks that way. 🤔

His answer was a non answer. Of course they are.
