'Energy poverty' explodes as Labor costs Australians $23 billion

Shadow Energy Minister Dan Tehan says soaring power bills and rising energy poverty expose Labor's failure to deliver on its promise to cut household electricity costs. “The total figure, $23 billion nationwide, is how much they’ve gone up by, and that’s over $1000 for most average households; this is when they were promised to go down by $275,” Mr Tehan told Sky News host Chris Kenny. “Chris Bowen remains as hapless as ever about trying to address this and fix this, and he’s blindly still pursuing his renewables-only approach. “It’s a disgrace; we’ve seen the number of people hit with energy poverty increase now to be over 250,000 households, and they do not seem to care that this number continues to grow under their policies.”
