When the opposition wouldn't cooperate with the government attempting to ram through their favour for Santos - the Sea Dumping Bill - this happened:
"You said no to Santos."
"You said no to Woodside. "
"You said no Inpex."
#auspol
Our research shows that this Bill appears primarily aimed at facilitating the Santos Barossa Project, its related Bayu-Undan CCS project and other fossil fuel projects off Australia’s northern shores.
"The bill allows companies to export their carbon dioxide outside of Australian waters and dump it in international seas. There is a single company for which this is relevant."
@pollyjhemming in @SatPaper thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/environme…
"This bill is a trojan horse to facilitate new fossil fuel projects in general and one gas project in particular - Santos' massive new Barossa project off Darwin."

Here's 17 reasons why the Stage 3 tax cuts should be scrapped 🧵
1/ FACT: the Stage 3 tax cuts are massively expensive and massively unfair
They will cost $313 billion over a decade, of which $157.5 billion will go to those earning more than $180,000 per year. #auspol
2/ Every dollar of the Stage 3 tax cuts to the wealthy ($313 billion), is a dollar not spent on government services that are crying out for funds like Aged Care and Medicare, or increasing the rate of Jobseeker above the poverty line. #auspol
3/ They will give bankers, surgeons, and MPs an extra $9075 a year, while hospo workers get nothing.
Australia is in the middle of a cost-of-living crisis, and the Stage 3 tax cuts will deliver 0 for those struggling to make ends meet on the minimum wage or low incomes. #auspol
