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.

“The whole game for Jonathan Mitchell is to get into federal court, both because he wants to shut down doctors in shield-law states, like everyone in the anti-abortion movement, and because he wants a federal court to weigh in on the Comstock Act.”
He’s suing his girlfriend’s doctor for prescribing abortion pills. Could this gut access everywhere?
Texas lawyer Jonathan Mitchell is going after a California doctor, Here’s why that’s terrifying.

Why is the PM gaslighting Australians on North West Shelf?
Given Labor's climate-change assertions, its approval extension of the most climate destroying fossil project in Australia is shocking.

Reporting today confirms large quantities of Western Australia’s domestic gas reserves are being exported via Woodside’s North West Shelf project, and the federal and Western Australian governments are letting it happen.

The Australia Institute warned of precisely this situation last August.

"You're not alone in thinking Australia is getting taken for a ride."

Other countries are making a fortune from our gas exports, while Australians pay a premium price for our own gas.

Both the United States and the United Kingdom are reviewing the AUKUS agreement.

In light of this, and the consequential nature of the agreement, it's vital that our Parliament do the same.

The crossbench will push to ensure scrutiny is applied. Australians expect nothing less.

We came close — and we changed the game.

This was never just about one result. We’re building a bold, honest, community-powered movement on the belief we can do politics differently in Forrest.

The major parties can’t ignore the South West any longer. And that’s because of you.
