FOUR guys line up to announce AGL’s renewable energy project for SA. Then everything explodes into icy rage, awkward shuffling and embarrassed, uncomfortable sideways looks.

Federal Energy Minister Josh Frydenberg didn’t have a good morning.

Behind him, SA Energy Minister Tom Koutsantonis and AGL CEO Andrew Vesey.

Beside him — his new nemesis, Premier Jay Weatherill, who proceeded to rip into him and the Commonwealth’s response to SA’s power crisis, live on TV.

“It is a disgrace the way your government has treated our state,” Mr Weatherill he thundered.

“It’s the most anti-South Australian government we have seen from a Commonwealth Government in living memory,” he went on, just getting warmed up.
