Liberal energy spokesman Dan Tehan disclosed that his trip to the United States is being funded by a businessman who wants to see uranium exports from Australia. He missed the TV on his hotel room showing he was being hosted in luxury digs. Mate.

🌏DCCEEW welcomes Mr Will Nankervis as Australia’s next Ambassador for Climate Change. 🎉👏 He’ll work across government to champion Australia’s climate goals on the world stage. He will support our bid to host #COP31 in partnership with the Pacific.
Addressing climate change is something no one country can do alone. Honoured to have been appointed Australia’s Ambassador for Climate Change. Looking forward to working with friends and partners to advance this critical agenda.

In Australia some say that because Kevin Rudd once criticised Trump then he shouldn’t be ambassador to the US. This guy is his Secretary of State. Today.
Periodic reminder that this video of then Senator @marcorubio destroying @realDonaldTrump still exists. And is still accurate.
