Finally, one of Rudd’s ill-conceived plans has blown up in his face. No amount of spin can cover this one up. Although it seems he may at least be spared some opposition wrath. The plan was Rudd’s but was handpassed to Environment Minister, Peter Garrett, to implement.
Ignoring industry advice he went ahead with rebates for householders to get their roofs insulated. In trying to do something good for the environment and middle class Australians all he really achieved was let dodgy installers loose in people's homes with toxic imported cheap batts resulting numerous house fires and a few deaths of young men.
Abbott is rightfully calling for the head of the environment minister. Suddenly it’s the prime minister who has gone missing in action.
