The rich won't leave if you tax them. Norway put a 78% tax on fossil fuels and oil companies still begged them to drill. Don't fall for it.

The person apologising for failing to pass on the Sydney neo-Nazi rally protest information is the Deputy NSW Police Commisioner.

He was recently the acting NSW Police Commissioner and applied for the top job.

But 3 months ago he was passed over for the Commissioner's job.

Yes, indeed 😎

Australia Institute research shows the gas industry pays ZERO royalties on more than half the gas exported from Australia.

"Other people in the rest of the world are making a fortune out of Australia's gas exports.... Australia is getting taken for a ride."

The premier needs to give the police new powers to *checks notes* actually use the powers they already have, to prevent the kind of protest that took place on Sunday.

Difference between Whitlam and Albo.

Whitlam not only talked the talk, he walked the walk.

Albo is a corrupt, self-aggrandising imposter.

Here’s a mentally ill man literally living in a fantasy land of his own making trying to gaslight the world. He’s constantly sane washed and the ramblings are ignored or rewritten. Meanwhile legacy media beats up on the #BBC for a technicality in editing as if it absolves his J6 incitement. Crazy.

This is the outfit in Tasmania @albomp.bsky.social β€˜backed-in’ before the last federal election.
Opportunistic policies have consequences.
And, Albo, protection of the environment is demonstrated by action…not deeply flawed legislation that amounts to window dressing

Criticism of the 'dud #AUKUS deal' comes from all sides of politics. Former PMs, Keating ("worst deal ever") and Turnbull ("one-sided mugging") slam it.
It is and always was Morrison's master plan to wedge Labor. It was never conceived to be a defence strategy.

Outrage after Neo Nazi rally was approved by Police.

Needs to be an inquiry into who, gave the final go ahead, for this. And those responsible. Should be sacked.
After trying to get 2 rallies for peace for Gaza blocked.
This definitely not a good look.

Australian newspaper headline: Darwin LNG plant suspected of under-reporting cancer-causing emissions.

Australian newspaper headline: Darwin LNG plant suspected of under-reporting cancer-causing emissions.

Oil and gas giant Inpex has admitted to srsly under-reporting its cancer-causing pollution (incl. benzene, sulphur dioxide & hydrogen sulphide) just days before a major oil spill at their Darwin gas plant. Inpex is a major gas exporter. Last year they paid no royalties and no resource tax! #auspol

It's very sad that most of the response seemed to be about making sure the legislation was amended to support the current operations.

I can't forgive the LNP for introducing Robodebt. The fact that nothing has changed and that no-one has been held to account is all on Labor.

The Prince and the Dismissal Anthony Albanese recently told us with bated breath from Balmoral Castle that Charles is someone who is very interested in Australia”. β€œInterested β€œwould be an understatement.

"Charles was a very active participant in the dismissal of Gough Whitlam 50 years ago. Don’t make any mistake about that. Charles was up to his royal ears in it. He was not politically neutral. He sided with privilege and aristocracy."

In order to protect & care for the places & wildlife we love we must have stronger environmental laws, far stronger than what @australianlabor.bsky.social has proposed.

In introducing these environmental law reforms, the gov forgot the word β€˜protection’. A slip of the tongue that tells us all we need to know about the so-called reforms. If these laws pass, environment ministers are sure to oversee the next mass extinction event #auspol #politas

But the a'hole of a PM deliberately created a NACC in the LNP vision ..a toothless mole. Wouldn't want a NACC that could potentially expose their corruption so he created a dud.
