  1. AEC data on political donations for 2022 and #Ausvotes2022 released.

    "AEC’s data shows at least $1.35 million in fossil fuel money flowing to the major parties ahead of a federal election where the climate crisis was a top ranking factor for voters.

    It shows how the money was evenly spread across the major parties, with Labor netting almost $600,000 and the Coalition receiving almost $790,000 across both the Liberals and Nationals."

    ... Voters deserved to know that Adani funded the LNP’s campaign in Queensland. That the Nationals happily received donations from tobacco giant Philip Morris and that Labor took $62,000 from Tamboran Resources – a company fracking for gas in the Beetaloo Basin."

    But in 2022 Climate activists fought back raising a $10 million election war chest that resulted in elction on 10 climate Independent MPs.
