Albanese 'puts distance between himself and the Green zealots' over coal | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Chris Kenny says Opposition leader Anthony Albanese has “talked sense” on the coal industry and successfully put “distance between himself and the Green zealots”. \n\nThe Labor leader declared this week withdrawing Australia’s coal exports from the market could lead to an increase in global emissions. \n\nMr Kenny said 'you have to give the opposition leader credit” for trying to reposition Labor’s stance on the coal industry. \n\nBut the Sky News host said 'it shows how far off course Labor has strayed when talking a bit of sense about the nation's largest export industry is hailed a breakthrough”. \n\n“Labor wouldn't back coal in the lead up to the election, wouldn't back the Adani coal mine and still pushes an alarmist line on climate change that suggests policies that will cripple coal,” Mr Kenny said. \n\n“These people are catastrophists, scaring our kids, debasing our politics, all to demonstrate their own wokeness.\n\n“It isn't easy because the Greens and Labor's left, Albanese's own faction, are not too interested in facts when it comes to coal and climate, they prefer emotion and virtue-signalling over facts and reason.' \n\nImage: News Corp Australia
