Greens MLC Sue Higginson says the idea that Australia needs more uranium “is just wrong”. “My views on this have been made very, very clearly,” Ms Higginson said. “This is a radical distraction; it is absolutely unnecessary. “Of course the Minerals Council has found a different way to push the call for more uranium mining.
