“You know why the Norwegians charge their kids nothing to go to university? “Because they tax the gas industry and they fund public services.” – Dr Richard Denniss, co-CEO of The Australia Institute ✍ Sign to support a 25% tax on all Australian gas exports ➡️ https://theaus.in/3R78MQ4

Premier Peter Malinauskas’ decision to overturn SA's ban on gas fracking is not only irresponsible, but also unnecessary. Australia doesn't have a gas shortage problem, we have a gas export problem. And fracking in vulnerable farming communities won't fix it. #auspol @richarddenniss.bsky.social

In an ironic act of secrecy, an FOI request by The Australia Institute has exposed how the Attorney General’s Department deliberately avoided scrutiny of the government’s bungled attempt to change the nation’s FOI laws. 📺 Senator @davidshoebridge.bsky.social at Senate Estimates #auspol

The PM says we at the Australia Institute need to be 'fair dinkum' about a gas tax. We're happy to be fair dinkum! Including about how the PM said some pretty misleading things in that interview. 📻co-CEO Richard Denniss on ABC Radio Perth #auspol @richarddenniss.bsky.social

"Together, negative gearing and the 50% capital gains tax discount have really made housing unaffordable." "Depending on what those changes look like in the budget, this will hopefully stop making the problem worse." @ebonybennett.bsky.social #auspol

This morning our co-CEO Leanne Minshull helped launch a public inquiry into AUKUS! Australians deserve transparency and should not be asked to simply accept a project of this magnitude without scrutiny. @leanneminshull.bsky.social #auspol

The Farrer by-election result is another example of how there is no such thing as a safe seat. Director of The Australia Institute's Democracy & Accountability Program Bill Browne explains. Read more here: https://australiainstitute.org.au/report/power-sharing-in-australian-parliament/

Now that Tammy Tyrell's joined the Labor Party, that's one more member who supports a 25% tax on gas exports! A 25% tax would raise $17 billion every year to fund essential services. It just makes sense! #auspol

The ousting of the Navy Secretary in the middle of a War in Iran shows the chaos and craziness of this Administration and sends the wrong message to our adversaries and troops. Instead of playing a Game of Thrones, our leadership at the Pentagon should be focused on our men and women in uniform.

Continuing President Trump’s illegal war in Iran only weakens America while driving up costs for working families. A prolonged conflict drains our resources and creates new opportunities for our adversaries.

RFK Jr. wants us to believe autism is on the rise, when what's actually changed is our understanding and tracking of it. He would know the difference if he had any background in medicine or science. And no, feeding mice to your pet falcon doesn't count.

Day 465 - Cutting gasoline prices 50% by 19 JAN 2026 ? Just another broken promise. This video shows trump making that promise on 10 October 2024 at the Detroit Economic Club in Detroit Michigan. He also promised to NOT allow cuts to Medicaid/Medicare, and to lower grocery prices on day 1. Nope.

The fuel price shock we're seeing now demonstrates just how risky our continued dependence on oil and gas is for British households. The govt must do all it can to bring down energy costs - decouple the price of electricity from gas and wean us off dirty volatile fossil fuels.

Iran’s foreign minister, in a call with his New Zealand counterpart, said the current tensions in the Strait of Hormuz are the direct result of actions by the “aggressors.” The strategically vital waterway remains at the center of rising geopolitical and economic confrontation.
