Sky News host Alan Jones has criticised former prime minister Malcolm Turnbull for two “monumental stuff-ups” during his leadership - the “submarine fiasco” and the Snowy Hydro 2.0 project.
“I said from the outset this submarine fiasco was a massively expensive waste of time and money,” Mr Jones said.
His comments came amid heavy criticism of both projects, which Mr Jones argued he expected would come in over-budget.
Mr Jones agreed with Victorian Energy Policy Centre Director Dr Bruce Mountain, who on Monday described the Snowy Hydro 2.0 project as being ‘an expensive white elephant’.
“Why shouldn't you pay for these monumental stuff-ups?” Mr Jones said, directing his question at Mr Turnbull.
“Submarines, and now Snowy 2.0….Well done, Mr Turnbull,” he said.
