Rudd ridicules Opposition’s nuclear push
Jul 23, 2009 Prime Minister Kevin Rudd says Labor’s policy of opposing nuclear power generation in Australia is clear……………………………

“Can I say our policy on this was made absolutely clear at the ALP national conference a couple of years a go when I was leader of the parliamentary Labor Party, I still am, though my other job has changed, and it was clear cut that we were getting rid of the three mines policy,” he said.

Mr Rudd says the remarks show the Opposition do not have a coherent policy on climate change.

“We’ve got this extraordinary situation where the only thing the Liberal Party seem to be united on is putting nuclear plants, power plants, across the country, when they can’t even have a unified position on climate change,” he said.
