One Nation leader Mark Latham has spoken out against the NSW government spending thousands on a renewable energy tourist attraction.
Mr Latham tells Alan Jones the NSW Government has granted $90,000 to Glen Innes Council to build a viewing platform for people to look at a large broken windmill blade.
The White Rock Wind Farm had offered the blade to the council in 2018 after it was damaged during construction.
The tourist attraction is considered a monument to the council’s commitment to renewable energy.
Mark Latham says the money could be better spent on the health system.
“This is supposed to be a monument to their commitment to renewable energy, what it is a monument to absolute government waste and mismanagement!
“To spend $90,000 is just beyond belief!”
