"Other people in the rest of the world are making a fortune out of Australia's gas exports....You're not alone in thinking that Australia is getting taken for a ride."
Add your name to the petition calling on the government to fix the gas export problem: nb.australiainstitute.org.au/fix_gas_export…

You know what? This is one of the best things that could have happened to Australia. The sheep didn't wake up after Covid. Perhaps now? You have to walk through the dark to get to the light. Hmmm? Let's wait and see.

Only one politician in Parliament had the spine to speak up about the NDIS investigation.
The rest stayed silent.
Billions in potential misuse of taxpayer money… and almost nobody in Canberra wants to touch it.
So we’ll keep exposing it and go HARDER.
Thank you so much to Australian MP Rebekha Sharkie for shouting out our NDIS investigation in the Australian Parliament - ''@DrewPavlou and Pete have done an exceptional job in exposing potential fraud in the NDIS''

In mid-1979, Australia faced severe petrol shortages and panic buying.
- This was triggered by global oil supply disruptions from the Iranian Revolution (1978–1979), which sharply reduced Iran's oil exports and contributed to the worldwide "second oil crisis" (also called the 1979 oil crisis).
Compounding this in Australia was a national strike by refinery operators, which disrupted local refining and distribution.
Governments (federal and state levels) introduced emergency measures, including strict rationing.
A common system was odd-even number plate rationing: Vehicles with licence plates ending in odd numbers could buy fuel on certain days (e.g., odd-numbered dates or specific weekdays), while even-numbered plates were restricted to the alternate days. This helped limit demand and reduce queues at service stations.
This mirrored similar odd-even rationing schemes used in the US during the same 1979 crisis (and earlier in 1973), as well as some Australian fuel restrictions in other periods like the 1970s oil shocks or refinery strikes in the 1960s–1980s.
