North West Shelf gas extension will deliver ‘almost nothing’ to Australia’s public purse Experts say hugely profitable east coast LNG producers pay little in resources rent tax and Woodside project won’t help country’s energy shift

Shocking betrayal!

Extending the Woodside gas project won’t help Australia’s energy transition, delivering “almost nothing” to the national purse and only profiting foreign partners from our mineral wealth experts say.

How useless must Littleproud be to make hot messs Sussan look competent? Great Barney, Big Mac, Hume Hwy, Claire Chandler, Sarah Henderson & Jacinta all dumped. But Tim Wilson? Dan Tehan? Angus Taylor? They’re just asking to be in opposition forever. #auspol

ABC pulls interview with Palestine advocate from website and iview During the interview, Nasser Mashni made a pointed remark that it was time 'for Palestine to be free, from the river to the sea'.

We may not have Peter Dutton as PM but the outcome is the same.

The country is absolutely going down the dogshit MAGA road and @albomp.bsky.social is cheering it on.

The Nationals are showing disunity and regularly have multiple policy positions.
Why doesn't our media probe more?

Stupid question. It’s because it pisses off the left. The right’s entire agenda is based on this and this ONLY. The more something angers progressives, the harder they pursue it regardless of morality. #AusPol

And now Labor is set to approve Woodside expansion which threatens one million rock carvings on the Burrup Peninsula.
Woodside is majority foreign owned.

Five years after the destruction of Juukan Gorge caves In May 2020, the world was stunned as news broke that mining corporation Rio Tinto destroyed the ancient Juukan Gorge caves in Western Australia’s Pilbara region

Five years ago today, Rio Tinto deliberately destroyed Juukan Gorge.
These caves were not just ancient rock shelters; they were a repository of Indigenous history, culture & heritage that spanned over 46,000 years.
Tangible legal reform has yet to happen

Assuming it is $3.1 million, with the $80,000 pension payment it becomes $3.18 million. If your balance on June 30, 2026, is greater than $3 million (say $3.1 million) then Division 296 tax will count a balance of $3.18 million in its calculations even if your balance at the start of the year was less than $3 million (in your case $2 million) One aspect of Division 296 tax where you have a greater than $3 million balance at the end of the year but a balance of less than $3 million at the start is that it will be calculated as if your year started with a $3 million balance. When determining your super earnings for Division 296 tax purposes you add together your year-end balance with pension payments and then deduct your balance at the start of the year from this. That’s $3.1 million plus $80,000 less $3 million. This will give you total super earnings for Division 296 purposes of $180,000. Despite the large increase in your fund from $2 million to $3.1 million, your Division 296 liability will be significantly less given it won’t include the increase in your total super below the $3 million threshold. The 15 per cent tax will only apply to the percentage that $180,000 represents of $3.18 million or 5.66 per cent. While 15 per cent of $180,000 is $27,000, 5.66 per cent of this results in a Division 296 tax liability of $1528. This assumes there is no change in the proposed tax when – and if – it finally becomes law.

Hilariously, the AFR is showing just how absurd is the scare campaign against the super tax changes.

They give an eg where someone's super goes from $2m to $3.18m in a year!

Yep a $1.18m increase.

How much extra tax?

$1,528!

OMG!! THAT'S OUTRAG... err... oh actually that's bugger all
