Australia Institute analysis reveals that replacing PRRT with a 25% tax on gas exports, suggested by the ACTU, would raise more than $17 billion a year.

‘It's time our governments looked after our interests and stopped being pushed around by these gas companies.’

In 2010, the Aus and QLD governments allowed a handful of multinational gas giants to begin massive exports of our gas — a decision that's making Australians poorer today.

‘Our gas prices tripled, then tripled again...electricity prices doubled as well.’

"Dutton went to the election saying, we don't have a shortage of gas, we're just exporting too much, why don't we tax gas exports. I couldn't agree more."

"Imagine if Labor were to tax gas exports & spend tens of billions on improving health & education."

Australians are waking up to the giant scam the gas industry has been operating:

🟠 Draining Australia of gas: exporting over 80% of Australia’s gas
🟠 Getting over half the gas they export royalty free
🟠 Never paying PRRT on the gas they export
🟠 Price gouging us for our own gas

The Rafah crossing, where sick and wounded Gazans congregated to be evacuated, was bombed relentlessly. The intention to kill the already wounded is clear. The criminality is palpable. The complicity of the US-European rulers is mindnumbing.
