  1. Canberra’s fossil fuel overlords are shaking in their boots thanks to David Pocock calling out Labor’s spineless dodge on a 25% gas windfall tax – because apparently taxing Gina Rinehart’s mates more than our beer is promoting grievance!

    —adequately, responsibly, and fairly tax the super rich;
    —ensure minimum wages actually provide the basic necessities of life;
    —put the basic needs of all members of society ahead of corporate dividends…
