We used to hear from the former Coalition Government that the Liddell power station would be kept open. It was just hot air from the former government. Liddell's closure was announced on the Coalition's watch with no plan for the future and no way to make sure hard-working people had good jobs to go to.
The Liberals and Nationals spent 10 years trying to stall the transformation to a cheaper, cleaner and more reliable energy system and undermining new renewable generation and clean energy jobs. When 24 coal-fired power plants announced their closure, there was no Coalition consideration of replacement energy or jobs for the communities affected.
