Liberal Deputy Ted O’Brien Withdraws Support for Net Zero
The Liberal Party is preparing to finalize its climate policy as soon as next week in an effort to stop further internal divisions within the Coalition.
Deputy Liberal leader Ted O’Brien has joined conservative members calling for the party to abandon its pledge to achieve net zero emissions. His stance has sparked criticism from moderate MPs who insist the party should remain committed to the target and demonstrate political courage.
O’Brien, a former shadow energy minister, repeatedly declined to endorse the party’s continued support for net zero on Tuesday.
According to party insiders, O’Brien is aligned with senior conservatives who wish to distance the party from the policy, following the Nationals’ recent decision to withdraw their commitment.
As debate grows within the Coalition, the final position on climate strategy will be determined in the coming week.
