Synopsis

Jodie & Soda speak with Channel 7's Political Reporter Mike Smithson who asked the question which kicked off an angry row between the federal Energy Minister Josh Frydenberg and the state's Labor Premier, Jay Weatherill which then played out on live television. The face-off followed the Commonwealth's announcement of a massive $2 billion upgrade to the government-owned Snowy Hydro Scheme using public money, which had come just 48 hours after the Turnbull government rounded on SA for promising to use public funds to build a gas-fired generator. Mr Frydenberg described the Premier's performance in the unseemly stoush as "pretty unbecoming, pretty childish" and suggested he would soon be replaced by voters as a result.
