Fix the GST to unlock more than $2 billion for SA @noah_sbyard, director of the Australia Institute South Australia asks whether SA will accept our shrinking share of the GST and risk even deeper service cuts by 2030, or will we fight for tax reform. indailysa.com.au/news/opinion/2…

Need proof Big Gas is ripping Australians off? Inpex exported ~$54 billion in gas from the NT Inpex also HASN'T PAID A CENT in ❌Royalties ❌Petroleum Resource Rent Tax ❌Company Tax 🎙️Executive Director Richard Denniss

Great for @TheAusInstitute to be back at #WOMAD Planet Talks in 2025! Our Deputy Director @ebony_bennett is talking all things greenwashing and climate spin with @EDOLawyers, @simonahac & Comms Declare.

New research: More Australians consider Donald Trump a greater threat to world peace than Vladimir Putin or Xi Jinping. 🔴 Trump (31%) 🟠 Putin (27%) 🟠 Xi Jinping (27%) Almost half (49%) said they felt less secure since the election of President Trump. 17% feel more secure.

Just to be sure Australians fully grasp how much our governments are letting Chevron rip us off. Chevron get all the gas they export FOR FREE, and pay NO PRRT. They’ve pay a pittance of royalties for some oil over 40 years … and now our government is giving half of that back!

Turns out our governments aren't just giving most of our gas away for free to foreign owned gas corporates They're also handing back the meagre royalties they do bother to collect! Big Gas has captured out governments. boilingcold.com.au/governments-se…

If the Government is interested in tax reform, we have some ideas. Between taxing the gas industry, fixing tax loopholes and ending fossil fuel subsidies, these changes could raise up to $63 billion, supporting better services and reducing inequality. ▶️ australiainstitute.org.au/post/5-suggest…

The Government’s Safeguard Mechanism is supposed to limit emissions. Instead, it just lets companies cheat. The massive carbon bomb North West Shelf project met 100% of its Safeguard target using dodgy carbon offsets that won't cancel out its huge emissions. @KetanJ0 #auspol

Members of the crossbench have written to Deputy PM and Defence Minister Richard Marles, calling for an urgent parliamentary inquiry into Aukus. In April, polling by @TheAusInstitute found 56% of Australians support such a move.

With Bradfield now called, Skye Predavec points out that the 2025 election was the first time where the votes for independents and minor parties were *larger* than for one of the ALP or LNP #OffTheCharts australiainstitute.org.au/post/the-2025-…

Japanese companies made $1 BILLION...CLEAR PROFIT, by on-selling Australian gas last year. We are being taken for mugs by Big Gas and it's time for the Aus Gov to do something about it.

The Executive Director of The Australia Institute says governments are “choosing to be poor” by lightly taxing the resource sector. Catch up on #QandA on iview: ab.co/429IO1o

Our deputy director Ebony Bennett is speaking at @WOMADelaide tomorrow on Tackling Greenwashing! Join her at 1:30pm at Botanic Park, with Belinda Noble and @simonahac. Info: womadelaide.com.au/lineup/the-pla…

Funny how these things work: Minns Govt uses panel advice to justify breaking promise to buy back poker machines - but won't commit to the things the panel *did* recommend. smh.com.au/politics/nsw/t…

Hundreds of thousands of salmon are dead and their rotting carcasses are washing up on Tassie beaches. It stinks. And so does the PM’s special treatment of the foreign-owned salmon companies in Tasmania, who pay no tax. My @canberratimes column
