The pair were at the launch of an AGL virtual power plant.
“I have to say it is a little galling to be standing here next to a man [Mr Frydenberg] who has been standing up with his Prime Minister bagging SA at every step of the way over the last six months,” Mr Weatherill said.
“It is the most anti-SA Government we have seen from a Commonwealth Government in living memory.
“For you [Mr Frydenberg] to be standing here, sitting next to us trying to take credit for some small scheme which goes nowhere near fixing the size and the extent of the problems that have been created in this State, it is an outrage.”
Minister Frydenberg shot back that “maybe Tom [Koutsantonis] will be the next Premier of SA because I think after Jay Weatherill’s conduct today, the public would think that is pretty unbecoming and childish and pretty unacceptable for a senior political figure of their State to behave”.
