‘Always been there for us’: Mining industry got Australia through the pandemic

Australia’s mining industry has “always been there for us” as it was the industry to pull us out of the pandemic, according to Liberal MP Garth Hamilton. “This is the industry that got us through the pandemic … when everything else went to custard, this is the industry that held up,” Mr Hamilton told Sky News contributor Steve Price. “It’s the industry that got us through the GSC; it’s the industry that got us out of the 90s recession.”
