‘Out of control’: Power prices ‘going through the roof’

Former deputy prime minister Barnaby Joyce says Labor’s “lunacy of swindle factories” and wind towers “covering the countryside black” is out of control. “Power prices are going through the roof,” Mr Joyce told Sky News host Andrew Bolt. “That will be a fundamental driver of inflation because those power prices, not only do you pay them, but every product produced in Australia, they pay them and it pushes up power prices.”
