Japan raises more tax revenue from Australian gas exports than Australia does.

Japan has a tax on gas and coal imports that raises more money than Aus PRRT.

Great new research out today @australiainstitute.org.au @richarddenniss.bsky.social

Konrad Benjamin on fire in today’s gas tax inquiry, says those claiming “we can’t afford anything” are full of it, we have plenty of resources to benefit from
“This gas issue is the perfect eg of how it’s a lie”
“We’ve been sold out”🔥 #auspol @punterspolitics.bsky.social @australiainstitute.org.au

We're doubling billions in funding for drone defences to bring us up to speed on 'weapons of modern warfare'. And no one is defining who these modern warfare weapons would be used against?
And meanwhile - Australians can't afford food, housing and required medical care.
Upside down world #auspol

#ClimateCriminals are ripping us off while destroying our future.

The Australian government: Bribing the USA to not completely take us over, while also letting them completely take us over, dig us up, sell us out, and use us as a waste disposal site.

Groomed, captured, deployed. How the Israel lobby runs Chris Minns - Michael West Police brutality, intimidation, harassment, free speech attacked. NSW Premier Chris Minns was groomed for Israel, writes Andrew Brown.

"By the time Minns reached the premiership, leading pro-Israel organisations were publicly hailing him as a 'strong friend.' Not a sympathiser. Not a useful contact. A reliable asset"

Following Minns ignoring the court's ruling, worth re-upping this. #nswpol

The whole of Palantir’s manifesto is dystopian, but this is really chilling; “The question is not whether AI weapons will be built; it is who will build them and for what purpose.” They have a plan to build AI weapons to kill what we hold precious, we need a plan to stop them.

This isn’t an academic threat to democracy, social inclusion and genuinely liberal values where people are all valued equally. It is a clear and present fascist program attached to a military political project that stifles dissent at home and kills “adversaries” abroad.

The Australian Greens are calling on the government 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.

Don’t forget we just gave them top secret clearance

Palantir is known to have provided technology that facilitated the Gaza genocide. They are facilitating mass ICE kidnappings in the US. These actions alone should trigger a review of Australian contracts. This latest manifesto only adds to the concern.

Palantir is a cancer we should be cutting out of our Government agencies and institutions. Instead the Albanese Government and big corporations here are keen to use their mass surveillance and deeply unethical business practices for their own ends, regardless of the dangers.

Palantir is embedding itself in other Australian institutions from Coles, to Rio Tinto. Westpac, our military cyber unit, the Australian Signals Directorate, the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission and AUSTRAC, which handles Aussies’ sensitive financial information.

Defence has handed Palantir more than $26 million in contracts since 2013, including a $7.6m deal awarded without competitive tender to its Cyber Warfare Division. Palantir staff are embedded in Defence. How the hell did Labor let these wolves inside?

Palantir wants a remilitarised West locked into a civilisational contest against its enemies. Sound familiar? This is exactly the logic driving AUKUS. We're not just buying nuclear submarines, we're buying into someone else's war with our neighbours.

Palantir has contracts across Australian defence & intelligence. Their CEO is pushing a "clash of civilisations" AI war doctrine, mass conscription and protecting elites. Australia cannot have an independent defence or foreign policy when our military is built on this platform.

Palantir's CEO published a manifesto arguing Western tech firms have a "moral debt" to US military dominance, that AI weapons are inevitable, and that "some cultures are dysfunctional." This isn't just a regularly evil tech or defence contractor, it’s a fascist political project.

Hey @albomp.bsky.social

Akram Abu Ali witnessed Israeli settlers shoot a boy who was trying to save his friend from being beaten.

'They're not trying to scare us. They're shooting to kill. Four kids shot. We did nothing wrong. They came to us. They terrorize us. We get shot. They go home."

You're hearing it more and more... it's time to tax gas exports!

More than 50 community organisations, including ACOSS and Oxfam, are calling for a 25% export tax.

Australians are fed up with the gas industry not paying its fair share.

The new head of the Australian military is taking his first international trip to the US as part of the $375 billion AUKUS scam.

While there, he will be the keynote speaker at a $ 5,000-a-head corporate event run by former Minister for Defence Industry Christopher Pyne.

The system is rigged.
