14 years of methane leaking from Santos’s Darwin LNG plant Instead of fixing it, they argued that meeting international standards was too costly When major emitters dismiss responsibility as an “intolerable risk” it’s all of us that pay the price instead abc.net.au/news/2025-10-1…

So the Nationals seem set to walk away from a commitment to net zero emissions without doing any economic modelling. 🤠🤡🙈 It’s just embarrassing … #auspol #climateaction #netzero #clowns abc.net.au/news/2025-10-2…

Conflicts of interest and climate science denial prevail in the Nationals … 💰🤠🤡🙈🙉 #auspol #netzero #climate #COP30 #COP31 abc.net.au/news/2025-11-0…

.Sussan Ley If the opposition isn’t prepared to commit to even an insipid amount of climate action (i.e. net zero by 2050) I’d suggest the #coalition will remain unelectable unless and until #Labor implodes. That doesn’t sound like a very sensible political strategy … #auspol

.Dan Tehan There’s a big difference between the national interest and the desire of the fossil fuel industry to make short term profits while destroying the planet and public health. Regrettably the opposition appears to be focused on enabling the latter. #auspol #abc730

What can Australia learn from Norway's approach to taxing resources? (I’d suggest that the most important lesson is to make sure your political system is not captured by the resources industry, or any other vested interests💰 #auspol #ConflictsOfInterest) abc.net.au/news/2025-11-0…

“… a huge, gas-guzzling RAM 1500, valued at $249,950 before on-road costs, avoids more than $50,000 in tax. … the cost to government revenue of the “ute loophole” (is) $250 million. That’s a lot more than is lost to EVs in fuel excise …” #auspol #tax thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/economy/2…

The opposition is absolutely embarrassing on energy policy. They have no plan in relation to the energy transition or emissions reduction and they clearly don’t understand how the Paris Agreement (which Abbott signed Australia up to!) works. 🙈🙉🤡🤠 #abc730 #auspol

Abandoning our kids. And theirs. For fossil fuel donors. It’s that simple. Selling out the future. Australia’s young generation will be asking, what use is democracy when science can be sold out for power, their future mortgaged to fill the pockets of the greedy, people

The world hasn’t raised the white flag — even if the White House has. At COP in Belém there’s real momentum for stronger climate action. Deniers lost the science fight, so the new denial is delay. Australia should cut emissions to drive jobs and prosperity.

Pressed to outline how the LNP will reduce emissions with their new energy plan, Sussan Ley says they’ll rely on “breakthrough technologies” in about “25 years time”😳 - ones not invented yet & “we’re not talking about today”🤔 There you have it. As bonkers as it gets. #auspol

While being sceptical that the opposition would embrace sensible centrist policies I had an open mind until the ludicrous dumping of the very modest target of net zero by 2050. Now I struggle to think of any scenario where they could win my vote.🤠🤡 #abc730 #auspol #netzero

After his embarrassing performance advocating the #LNP’s cloth eared “nuclear” policy one wonders if Ted O’Brien is the best person to persuade voters that the opposition are competent economic managers … #auspol #abc730

When Senator Canavan is interviewed climate science is basically ignored. It’s all breezy one liners that proceed on the flawed premise that cutting emissions is ideological and optional. And as usual abc730 made no attempt to challenge him. Very poor.👎 #auspol #NetZero #abc730

PM’s office directs lobbyists to use encrypted, disappearing messages (So when odious industries like gambling, fossil fuels etc. provide ‘suggestions’ (aka directions) to a government they ‘donate’ to the public won’t know?! 💰🙈🙉 #auspol #transparency) thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/politics/…

Hanson and Joyce. Right wing populists who lack substance. Like attracts like. #abcnews #auspol #yuck
