Australian gas keeps the peace in Indo-Pacific: King Any future east coast reservation will have no impact on crucial supply to Asia, the resources minister has assured her Japanese counterparts.

The Australian Government gives foreign owned gas corporates our gas for free, so they can export it to Japan who on-sell it for a profit while Australians face shortages.

Now our Resources Minister reckons we are going it for world peace

lol

US Republican Congressman Thomas Massie says every Republican politician as an AIPAC (Israeli lobby) handler.

Is that true for Australian politicians?

Because a lot of them act like it.

Hey @albomp.bsky.social, what would The Donald say if an Aus company exported $17 B of American gas and didn't pay any tax?

Texas' ConocoPhillips results in the latest ATO data. @australiainstitute.org.au @markogge.bsky.social

Why are Advance marketing instead of manufacturing?

A group of pale, stale billionaire males bemoan the good 'ol days when we used to make cars

So, they mount a marketing campaign instead of manufacturing cars

Why the fuck don't they just make cars?

So the NSW police are trying to stop the pro-Palestinian rally… like they did with the nazi flag wavers protest…

So it’s only protests against Israels genocide that are a problem… Nazis are fine…I get it.

Calls for Murray Watt to resign over Woodside NWS extension Traditional Murujuga owners have today called for the resignation of the Australian environment minister, Murray Watt, over his handling of the approval of Woodside's...

"As environment minister, Murray Watt should be protecting the environment. Reports and data clearly stated irreversible damage was occurring to Murujuga, but in his capacity as the envir. minister, he decided to allow further irreversible damage to occur”

Former WA Liberal Premier and resources minister Colin Barnett on Murujuga:

Top statistician accuses government of spinning rock art science A scientist who quit a major study on WA rock art is accusing the government of downplaying findings linking damage to heavy industry.

The WA Government doctored the report so the Premier could falsely claim Woodside’s operation wasn’t destroying Murujuga, so Woodside could get their disastrous 45-year gas export extension approved.

The gas industry has captured the WA Government.

Here's the ACCC today saying that gas exporters are ripping us off. Again.

"gas being offered & supplied by the exporters to the domestic market has declined over time, while LNG export volumes have increased."

SECRET CARGO: INSIDE AUSTRALIA’S COVERT F-35 PARTS PIPELINE TO ISRAEL  - Declassified Australia At least 68 shipments of F-35 fighter jet parts have been flown on commercial passenger planes to Israel from Australia as recently as last month, leaked documents reveal.

So it’s confirmed.

@australianlabor.bsky.social caved in to Woodside, allowing Woodside to destroy Murujuga with acid gas emissions for another 45 years.

One of Australia and the world’s greatest cultural treasures.

Weak and complicit.

SA Premier spreads gas industry misinformation South Australian Premier Peter Malinauskas has told an event sponsored by the gas lobby that a new gas project in Narrabri, NSW, is needed to firm up his state's electricity supply.

MEDIA RELEASE: SA Premier spreads gas industry misinformation

Premier Peter Malinauskas told an event sponsored by the gas lobby that a new gas project in Narrabri, NSW, is needed to firm up SA's electricity supply.

Our research, using the government’s own data, proves this is simply not true.

Yep, if you're going to do a range, why not 62% to 100%???

Australia’s target is 62% which is pathetic.

The 70% is meaningless because we only have to reach 62% to meet the target.

Australia continues its wrecking role in global efforts prevent climate collapse because our governments want to keep approving giant fossil fuel export projects.

Just made a few corrections to the gas industry billboard at Darwin airport.

You're welcome Australian Energy Producers.

As the world’s 2nd largest fossil fuel exporter and 5th largest producer, we are significantly increasing supply, driving down prices and locking in fossil fuels for decades.

Also, Im not a fan of drug dealers defence. We don’t take that approach on slavery, asbestos, drugs…

The government has laid out the perils of the climate crisis – but will Albanese meet the moment? Grave remarks on the potential shocks to people, property and the economy are all too familiar. Putting a credible number on the emissions target is the harder part

Sorry, but the government cant approve a 50-year extension of one of the largest fossil fuel export projects in the world...then 3 days later pretend it cares about the climate.

Just three days after approving an extension of one of the largest fossil fuel export projects in the world, the North West Shelf, the National Climate Risk Assessment reveals the devastating consequences facing Australia. #auspol

Media release:

Breaking: First climate risk assessment finds 1.5m Australians at risk from sea level rise by 2050 One and a half million Australians are at risk from sea levels rising by 2050 unless climate change can be limited, Australia’s first national climate risk assessment warns.

...and yet the Australian Govt just approved a 50 year extension of one of the biggest fossil fuel project in the world, Woodside's North West Shelf gas export terminal

It will add 90 million tonnes of emissions annually, equivalent to 12 new coal power stations
www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09...

Limits on emissions to protect the Murujuga rock art have stalled negotiations between the Government and Woodside over the North West Shelf extension.

Protecting Australia's cultural heritage should be the Government's top priority. Not gas industry profits.

Gas leak cover-up shows Australian governments are captured by the gas industry It's been revealed that Santos’ Darwin LNG gas export terminal has been leaking large amounts of climate-destroying methane gas for 20 years - and gas

“This cover-up is a national scandal. It confirms that Australia’s key regulators are either incompetent or captured by the gas industry, or both,” said @markogge.bsky.social.

“That there are no consequences for gas companies failing to act on a major leak of methane for 20 years is a disgrace."

Big Gas’ greed is killing Australian manufacturers The colossal price rises on the east coast, brought on by excessive gas exports, have been a disaster for Australian manufacturers and households.

Foreign owned gas corporations export 80% of Australia’s gas, leaving us short and price gouge us for our own gas.

The ACTU proposal for a 25% tax on gas exports would stop the rip-off, and raise 12.5 $billion/year for better housing, education and health.
