Why is Australia approving gas projects without considering the climate?
In a week where floods and droughts across Australia made headlines, the government extended the life of one of the world's largest gas facilities. Yet the climate did not factor into the decision.

"The failure of the Voice referendum was a shattering blow to the prime minister," writes Paul Bongiorno. "He took almost 12 months to see that defeat in a different perspective. His political opponent, Peter Dutton, never did."
The spoils of defeat
In politics, it is easy to misread a victory or a loss. It is only the subsequent election that can prove whether that judgement was correct or not. This reality was further complicated in this election by the fact it came so soon after a referendum with a very different outcome. The way both major parties interpreted the majority “No” vote in the 2023 Voice to Parliament
