They were in government for 10 years and had plenty of opportunities to do this. They were in government when the Uluru Statement was developed and released. Disingenuous doesn't even begin to explain this.

See also: their new pro-nuclear power stance.

They can't directly support coal power while in opposition, so they've fallen back on delaying renewables by pushing for the power source that would take decades to get established in Australia.

Anything but green energy because that's too woke obviously.

Although, if they're wanting to support research and development into nuclear fusion I personally do think this is a good idea.

They aren't interested in doing anything, it's anti-renewables FUD.
