flag Opposition leader Sussan Ley blames government pressure for blocking her tour of a struggling NSW aluminium smelter, demanding nuclear power and policy reform.

flag Opposition Leader Sussan Ley claims political pressure from the Albanese government caused the cancellation of her planned tour of the Tomago aluminium smelter, which faces closure due to unsustainable energy costs. flag She met with the smelter’s CEO but was denied access for a public tour, alleging businesses are avoiding policy discussions due to political fears. flag Ley called for nuclear power and a functional energy policy to secure industry, rejecting government ownership. flag The government denies interference, while NSW Premier Chris Minns urged private investors to act. flag The smelter, Australia’s largest, risks shutting by 2028 without a taxpayer-backed rescue, following recent bailouts for other industrial sites.
