Despite #ARSEHAT #Albanese complaining that it is “dishonest”, the campaign for a #HigherTax on #GasExports appears to be striking home with voters, the #EssentialPoll shows today. #auspol
Working for the #multinationals, not the voters or #Australia.
I can’t wait to see the back of the man.
The great lie of the #multinationals, their #shareholders and world leaders and politicians who sanctify #economic gain, depicted.
'Après nous, le déluge'.
This statment by the CEO of the Business Council Association is exactly what our #AlboPM is parroting publically:
“Mr Black gave evidence to the Senate inquiry on its second day of public hearings, arguing a levy would be “counterproductive” at a time when Australia needs more investment. […] Energy investors are like butterflies – if they are scared, they fly away,” he said, citing the head of the International Energy Agency (IEA).”
Which, of course, is absolute BS. All that investors need for incentive is a sound #BusinessCase that promisses #Profit. ANY PROFIT above the #CashRate will do. It doesn’t have to be the promisse of #Pilfering or #Sacking an economy FFS. ANy fool understands this. WHY doesn’t the #PM get it? If #AlboPM is not fool (and I have no reason to think he is), then HE IS COMPLICIT in the rape and sacking of the country by #Multinationals and the #ExtractiveIndustries - pure and simple (Because based on numbers, it’s not about jobs). And the #NationalSecurity ballon won’t fly here either.
I’m getting fed up hearing this neoliberal lie over and over and over again…

Ever Andrés Mercado won a World Press Photo award for his work on the Manacillos festival, which takes place among the Afro-descendant community of Yurumanguí. He talks about the ancestral ritual and why it’s so important
#Fossiele brandstof #multinationals, #oliegarchen en #wereldleiders verdienen miljoenen extra en het zal ook de andere #aandeelhouders een worst wezen dat daar #oorlogen ten grondslag aan liggen.

Another day, another multinational gets a ‘record’ fine for trashing irreplaceable nature. Alcoa just copped $55M AUD for illegally clearing over 2,000 hectares of WA’s precious jarrah forest for bauxite mining (2019-2025). Called ‘unprecedented’ by the govt, but for a company with billions in revenue? Total slap on the wrist while they keep mining. Jarrah forests aren’t renewable. 😡
