Tony — on not reading the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report
| TONY JONES: | I hear what you're saying about the earth having been hotter in different periods in its entire global history, but let me ask you this. Have you read the science that we're talking about here - for example, have you read the IPCC's report? |
| TONY ABBOTT: | No, I don't claim to have immersed myself deeply in all of these documents. I'm a politician. I have to rely on briefings - I have to rely on what I pick up through the secondary sources. |
