David Crisafulli insists he won't budge on his opposition to nuclear power — a position that's not sitting well with some of his federal colleagues.
Federal Opposition Leader Peter Dutton took a big gamble this week on the Coalition's nuclear power policy.
When asked by the media if his opinion would change if both the state LNP and Coalition were elected to government, he replied:Mr Crisafulli has also previously ruled out repealing laws banning nuclear power if the party wins office in October. Several state LNP MPs told the ABC that nuclear power had been ruled out by the party room and there was "no appetite" to pursue it.A surge in the polls helped spur the Coalition to announce its nuclear policy. Whether it holds on to that lead will come down to which side can persuade voters that such complex issues can magic up any short-term betterment in their lives.
