News out today shows big utes designed to cary cargo are better at killing pedestrians than smaller vehicles designed to cary people

did you know the popularity of these behemoths is based on a range of subsidies?

But the govt is inquiring into subsidies for EVs…

The Albanese govt’s first term was the second most secretive on record.

Rather than changing their ways, they’re doubling down and tightening our FOI system to make it even harder to get information. Not a single expert or member of parliament outside of the Labor party has backed their new bill.

Very odd to me the ABC has an entire podcast devoted to foreign affairs, hosted by two of its most prominent staff, that has not done a single episode on Gaza this year. Only reference was on the most recent episode, in the context of Trump visiting Saudi Arabia. www.abc.net.au/listen/progr...

Today drilling for gas under the Barossa project off the coast of Darwin was approved.

That's 274mil tones of emissions from one of the dirtiest gas projects in the 🌏

More than 100x emissions from the 🇦🇺 electricity system.

Our approvals system is broken. We need urgent reform.
