"We need a fit-for-purpose policy framework that genuinely supports decarbonisation, not one that continues to incentivise burning fossil fuels." A big thanks to Deidre Willmott from Fortescue for joining our energy panel at this week's Revenue Summit 2025! #auspol

Anglicare Australia says @tanyaplibersekmp.bsky.social's plan to give police powers to have Centrelink payments stopped for people accused of a serious crime is “completely at odds with the principles of fairness and justice”. Thank you @caitkelly.bsky.social for reporting.

Australians are being ripped off. That’s the blunt message delivered by the Australian Council of Trade Unions at the Australia Institute’s 2025 Revenue Summit. #auspol @australianunions.bsky.social

“Gas companies treat tax as optional, and they leave the rest of us with the cleanup bill for the natural disasters that they are turbo charging.” - Australian Greens Leader Larissa Waters at our Revenue Summit 2025 @larissawaters.bsky.social #auspol @thepointau.bsky.social

A senior doctor has labelled the comments of Barnaby Joyce & Andrew Hastie as “terrible, cynical, awful” things to say about an often heartbreaking decision. The bill is for an amendment to the Fair Work Act for paid parental leave. #auspol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

"I'm not going to take any responsibility. I'm sorry. I'm just not," yep, sounds about right for Michael McCormack. I expect so little from pollies these days and yet they still manage to limbo under that The lack of vision, leadership & understanding never ceases to amaze me #Auspol

Dementia addled toddler given a nuclear gun and is now pointing it at the world while his minders circle around applauding him. Newsflash! Ur bunkers won't save you! If the US resumes nuclear weapons testing, this would be extremely dangerous for humanity theconversation.com/if-the-us-re...

While some argue farmers don’t want solar and wind farms, at least they earn the farmer drought free income, they still get to keep their land. #auspol

Australia Institute research shows Australia gives more than half the gas we export away for free! Former QLD Premier Steven Miles showed what can happen when our governments tax fossil fuels properly. @stevenjmiles.bsky.social #auspol @thepointau.bsky.social

I see reports that Sarah Ferguson treated Kamala Harris with a strong dose of disrespect while seeking to score cheap political points during an interview with Harris on @abcnews 7.30 last night, supposedly to discuss Harris' 2024 campaign memoir. No further comment necessary. #auspol

Very important FACT. #Auspol

Mazda greenwashing BS, claiming their Hybrid can clean the air the more you drive by absorbing the CO2 it makes.. hey Mazda, ditch the engine, stop making the carbon in the first place, and put in a bigger battery. sure, absorb the carbon, ignore the endless mining for Oil....

"One wonders if this government will ever apply its super-majority to any purpose at all, beyond the politics of its own survival." #environment #auspol

It's genocide. That's all it has ever been.

"Australians are getting ripped off by the gas industry," - Liam O'Brien, ACTU Assistant Secretary told the #RevenueSummit25 Analysis by The Australia Institute shows the ACTU's call for a 25% tax on revenue from gas exports would raise around $12.5 billion annually. #auspol

"Gas companies treat tax as optional, and they leave the rest of us with the cleanup bill for the natural disasters that they are turbo-charging." - Senator Larissa Waters speaking at our #RevenueSummit25 @larissawaters.bsky.social #auspol

"Australian governments spend at least $16 billion annually as a result of childhood poverty. "Rather than preventing it, we’re spending money on addressing it." Dr Sophie Scamps MP unpacked the cost of inaction at our #RevenueSummit25 @sophiescamps.bsky.social #auspol

“We live in one of the richest countries in the world, that can afford to drop a lazy $360 billion on a bad idea... yet, when it comes to health, education, aged care, apparently, so many of these things are unaffordable.” - @richarddenniss.bsky.social at the #RevenueSummit25 #auspol

Because Australia gives so much of our gas away for free, Japan gets it so cheap it makes a profit selling it to other countries! "We are disincentivising Japan to do anything about their emissions." - Chief Economist Greg Jericho at our #RevenueSummit25 @grogsgamut.bsky.social #auspol

Fair to say its my personal view that Elon is a hack whose success can be attributed to his family wealth used as brute force to take over other people’s legitimately great ideas

“What we’ve seen with ICE in the US is now becoming reality here". Yes, but there's one major difference: In the US, one political party is opposed to this abuse of human rights. In Australia, deliberate racist cruelty is bipartisan. And has been for years. #auspol

António Guterres said it is now "'inevitable' that humanity will overshoot the target in the Paris climate agreement, with 'devastating consequences' for the world." Meanwhile, the Australian govt is more concerned with consequences for profits of their fossil fuel donors. #ClimateCrisis #auspol

For the Queensland health minister, the Queensland government and the Queensland LNP. You can't instruct the Queensland judiciary. The Fitzgerald Inquiry's Gary Crooke explained this in 2013. Here it is again. Which bit don't you understand? #qldpol youtu.be/lh7MygAdDe4

The Queensland supreme court has found the Qld government acted unlawfully & must pay costs (that's us). That really should be the end of the Crisafulli government's term. It can't continue under such a finding. An election should be called for the Qld people to decide. #qldpol

The Albanese Government has come in for criticism today as a Centre for Public Integrity report card marks them as failing on six of seven transparency measures. @thepointau.bsky.social #auspol

Notice the new thing to attack EVs is EM or electromagnetic radiation. The same thing as light. Did you know, the combustion of petrol releases EM radiation, in the form of UV! Which is actually harmful. Let’s ignore the 10,000’s of volts generated by the ignition systems #EV. #EMR

You truly are despicable people, @albomp.bsky.social @tonyburkemp.bsky.social. Every bit as evil as Peter Dutton, Scott Morrison, Malcolm Turnbull, Tony Abbott and John Howard. #auspol #Racism #HumanRightsAbuses

Remember when EV batteries were supposed to die faster than your iPhone? Turns out they age better than your uncle’s diesel ute. Kia EV6 leads the pack. Tesla Model Y’s not far behind. New study shows 80% used EVs still have 90%+ capacity. Some EVs are pushing 300,000 miles with 80% still intact.

BREAKING: Wind power just supplied 150% of South Australia’s electricity demand. Fossil fuels? A heroic 1.5%. Thoughts and prayers to everyone who said “renewables will never keep the lights on.” Must be hard watching your entire argument get blown away. reneweconomy.com.au/wind-hits-re...

Grog's rule of privatisation: "The day you decide to allow the private sector deliver a public service is also the day you should set the future date for the Royal Commission into abuses in the system."

“It is highly probable that Pine Gap data has been provided to the IDF after October 8 [2023] and is still provided today.” Bad enough that for decades Australia 'hosts' US intel through Pine Gap. Moreso when it enables the #GazaGenocide. And when our 'ally' is now a flaky fascist regime. #auspol

Australia. Independent Australia. We should never have agreed to AUKUS. independentaustralia.net/politics/pol...

As the Trump Administration slides further and further into authoritarianism, it becomes increasingly clear Australia needs to escape the disastrous AUKUS deal. Two-thirds of Australians support a Parliamentary Inquiry into AUKUS. Add your name to the call. ✍️⤵️ #auspol

Evie Networks just scored $50M in infrastructure-grade debt. Backed by super funds. This marks a turning point: EV charging is now mainstream infrastructure. Bring it on! #auspol #invest

Keep this one in mind. Qld's hospital projects & expansions were suspended by the Crisafulli govt in April. As we get closer to the 2028 election they will all be magically (re)announced. Crisafulli was alluding to it on ABC Radio this morning. #qldpol www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04...

I get it. We invented the game of 'keep away' when it comes to our refugee policy & 'hide & seek' with climate & environmental protection obligation. Still, if we have shared values we desperately need to change and unhook our wagon from the US Just say no to #AUKUS

Love me some science & technology! Lighter, more efficient, more power coupled with more efficient batteries means likely end for the last of the range anxiety in AUS. Once you've gone electric you will never go back

Stunning hypocrisy of western governments, like ours in Australia, is that they practice neoliberal ‘user pay’ & ‘copayment’ model for individuals - while delivering unfettered corporate socialism. We may vote but donors determine political priorities. Why community independents must prevail #auspol

100,000 home batteries installed in 17 weeks. That’s 2,000 MWh of capacity—15x the original Hornsdale Big Battery. And they’re getting bigger. removing houses from the demand side of the grid, and dumping stored #solar in times of peak demand for profit. energy freedom #auspol
