The Nationals won't be budging from its opposition to an emissions trading scheme .. despite its coalition partner saying it's considering supporting the federal government's plan .. when it comes up in the Senate.
Nationals Senator BARNABY JOYCE says they won't be supporting the scheme in any form .. saying the Nationals don't always vote with their Liberal partners.
Senator JOYCE says the only benefactors of the scheme would be those in stockbroking houses while producers .. including miners and farmers .. would go out of business due to the excess costs.
