Nationals senator Matt Canavan and LNP's Lou O'Brien tried to defend foreign gas companies and trash David Pocock in their own social posts, only to get absolutely demolished in the comments by their own voters demanding the 25% gas export tax Albo refuses to pass — the same tax that would return $17 billion to Australia every year.

Australians are losing out to the gas export scam.
Australia Institute research shows that beer drinkers pay more tax than gas export companies pay in PRRT.
Meanwhile, multinational gas companies get 56% of our gas exports for free.
Since our governments allowed these gas exports, our gas bills have tripled and our electricity bills have doubled.
Big gas is taking the piss and Australian governments are letting them. It has to stop.✍️ Add your name to the petition

@earthmothering9 For decades, mining giants extracted billions from Country while Traditional Owners were expected to be grateful for scraps. Good to finally see the Yindjibarndi people win recognition and compensation after standing up to one of Australia’s richest corporations. Justice should never depend on how long communities can afford to fight.

Indeed, how can this be? The answer is simple: Because #AlboPM wishes it so… Why? Well, that’s a whole other question isn’t it?
“The Japanese Government raises $8 billion per year from its Petroleum and Coal Tax, including around $710 million from imports of Australian gas.
By contrast, the Australian Government is currently getting around $420 million per year from gas exporters paying Petroleum Resource Rent Tax (PRRT). Prior to 2023, it was receiving zero. Nada. Nothing.
In other words, the Australian Government is getting less money from our gas exports than Japan is.
State and territory governments also raise money from gas, especially Queensland which expects to get $1.2 billion this financial year (page 64) from its onshore deposits.
But most of Australia’s gas exports come from massive offshore deposits owned by the Federal Government. This means that even though far more federally owned gas is exported, Queensland’s government (like Japan’s!) raises more money.
How can this be?”

Australia Institute research shows that Japan collects more tax from Australian gas than Australia.
Japan, a country with no gas, oil or coal reserves of its own, collected almost $40 billion over the last five years while the Australian PRRT provided only $7 billion to Australians.

@ApaulD
Excellent. Watched the whole thing & he nailed it. His last point, that politicians should NOT take jobs in the industries they regulate, who could disagree with that? Also loved Richard Dennis’ killer line that gas companies pay more in PR than they do in PRRT (the gas windfall profits tax). All that wining & dining & political donations don’t come cheap either… they’re playing us for mugs. -

@gusseting Funny how the best way to 'save the planet' and protect our kids is apparently letting Santos & co. keep pocketing $47 billion in revenue with basically zero company tax for a decade.
Ken Henry says hit the war-driven windfall profits with ~100% tax instead. That money could actually fund the transition, hospitals, or schools — rather than just foreign dividends while Aussies pay sky-high bills.
Or we could keep the current 'give it away tax-free' model and feel virtuous about the hottest summers. Your call. #prrt #gas #auspol #gastax -

If #Albo really wants a legacy, it won’t come from another landslide, it’ll come from finally making the gas giants pay their share. With energy prices soaring and foreign‑owned exporters paying next to nothing for Australian resources, a 25% gas export tax could fund childcare, dental care, and real cost‑of‑living relief. The move would expose the gap between Hanson’s rhetoric about ordinary Australians and her alignment with billionaire interests. This is Labor’s moment to show what democracy can deliver for people, not corporations.

RE: https://newsie.social/@ZhiZhu/116286411303642681
This is exactly what happens when corporations run a nation.
Massive welfare for the rich — trillions in bailouts, subsidies, tax loopholes and sweetheart deals — while they pay basically zero effective tax. The result? A country bled dry, with working people left holding the bag for endless deficits and crumbling services.
Sound familiar, Australia? Our mining multinationals, Big Tech giants and foreign-owned energy firms do the same thing here: rake in billions from our resources and markets, dodge tax through havens and loopholes, then lecture us about "budget emergencies" when it's time to fund Medicare, NDIS or affordable housing.
Corporate capture isn't just an American disease — it's global. Time to tax the bastards properly and put people and planet before profit.
