@anaryl I promise you gas companies that pay $0 for our resources do not need you to defend them. They're literally spending millions on that already.

@GetUp There's already multiple taxes on resource companies. PRRT and company tax, plus state royalties and various fees for development

Albanese has signalled that he is not taking the call for a tax on gas companies seriously and won't go forward with it despite it being wildly popular amongst Australians from all sides of politics and walks of life. Why? Simple. He cares more about gas companies than you. He doesn't take YOU seriously.

Anthony Albanese has signalled that he isn't taking the huge, bipartisan, national call for a gas tax seriously. What's funny about that is he is supposed to work for you, not gas companies. He doesn't take YOU seriously.

It is hypocritical and ruthless to cut public services to the Australian people when the ultra-wealthy, the billionaires, and huge corporations are rorting our systems and the Australian people every day.

Making sure the 1/3 of big corporations paying $0 in tax actually pay up. We don't know exactly how much this would raise but the remaining 2/3 raised almost $100 Billion last financial year and some of the biggest earners paid $0.

The government has announced huge cuts to the NDIS to save money and stop corruption, saving $15 billion over five years. And we SHOULD end corrupt misuse of our systems – but not boot 150,000 people off support they rely on. Here are a few better ways to save $15B OR MORE in ONE year by taxing the rich who rort us and our tax system

The Australian Greens are calling on the Govt to audit every Palantir contract across Government and particularly in Defence, Home Affairs and intelligence agencies and table the findings in Parliament. The public has a right to know the full scale of the risks and the sell out

Déjà vu? Seeing double? A stroke? No it’s just ANOTHER article exposing MORE flights that Pauline has taken on Gina Rinehart’s private jets and kept secret. But she doesn’t work for Australia’s richest billionaire, right? ...RIGHT?! theguardian.com/australia-news…

Australia is aiding Israel's genocide. This is how weapons parts made in Melbourne make it to the front lines in Gaza. Anthony Albanese: stop arming the genocide. Our new campaign launched in collaboration with @APAN4Palestine. Sign the petition here: getup.org.au/campaigns/pale…

The government knows climate disasters are escalating - but today Labor announced a target of 62-70% by 2035. It’s weak, it’s dangerous, and it’s nowhere near what the science demands. #auspol #climatejustice

The climate impacts report is out. The only thing certain from this report is that heatwaves, major impacts to nature, and displacement due to sea level rise will become more widespread. Meanwhile, Advance is pushing to scrap net zero. #auspol #climatejustice

It's official – fossil fuel corporations have been directly linked to deadly heatwaves happening around the globe. But these corporations are still taking no responsibility for the climate disaster they're causing, often paying little or no tax. It's time to Make Polluters Pay.

Australia will recognise the State of Palestine. But without urgent action, it risks being a political distraction while genocide in Gaza continues. We need a permanent ceasefire, an end to Australian-made weapons sales, sanctions on Israel, & full accountability for war crimes.
