JOSH FRYDENBERG: Good morning. It's good to be here with my friend and parliamentary colleague, Angus Taylor, the Minister for Energy. The Liberal and National Government are standing side by side with Australian families and businesses, not on the side of the energy companies, as we are determined to prohibit misconduct in the energy sector.

KIERAN GILBERT: Joining us now is the Energy Minister Angus Taylor. Thanks so much for your time. The former prime minister says it was his intention - and Scott Morrison was aware of that - to go in March, were you aware of that at the time?
DEB KNIGHT: We're joined now by Energy Minister Angus Taylor who is in Canberra for the final sitting week of Parliament. Minister, so much for quitting Parliament for good - this is so damaging from Malcolm Turnbull. Your party's more than mess - it's all-out war.

ANGUS TAYLOR: Good morning. It's fantastic to be here at the Bureau of Meteorology Operation Centre with Andrew Johnson from the Bureau and Audrey Zibelman from AEMO to announce a very important strategic partnership between AEMO and the Bureau for a relationship that is crucial and a time when the National Electricity Market is changing dramatically. This partnership will ensure sharing of information, modelling, forecasting at a level and in a way that we haven't been able to do in the past because things are changing.

PETA CREDLIN: Joining me tonight to pull apart some of Labor's policy detail and discuss his Government's plans to bring down power prices is the Minister for Energy Angus Taylor. Angus, great to have you on the show - great to have you in person.
ANGUS TAYLOR: Thanks for having me.
PETA CREDLIN: Difficult question to start off with - do Liberal Party family regard the party now as full of homophobic, women hating, climate change deniers?
