Since the mid 1990s, Norway has imposed a 56 per cent "special tax" for oil and gas companies, alongside a 22 per cent corporate tax rate.
Australia could learn a lesson from this and make companies pay their fair share for our natural resources.

And although there were lots of different views, everyone agreed on one thing: it's time to stop the expansion of fossil fuels.

The ALP didn't bother negotiating with the Libs when it changed IR laws, but now apparently it needs LNP support for environmental protection changes.
When govts want to do something, they do it.
When they don't, they use bipartisanship as the excuse.
