Part 5/7:
This grandstanding by Barnaby Joyce and Michael McCormack has created substantial hurdles for Susan Lee and her colleagues. Their approach often seems driven by party politics rather than pragmatic policy management. As a result, efforts to abolish or modify the net zero target are often hindered by political posturing, which complicates consensus-building.
While the abolition of the net zero goal is theoretically possible, the eagerness of certain figures to score partisan gains complicates the process, leaving important policy discussions in a state of gridlock. The internal dynamics reflect broader issues within Australian politics, where strategic positioning and party loyalty sometimes overshadow rational policymaking.
