That's what they said to Norway about their 78% TAX RATE on fossil fuel companies.
But they didn't leave.
They stayed.
And have paid up.
Smart Norway.

I'd like to see that as well. Quick hurry up and tax them.
Let them go.
Surely there are other compnies who will take up the mantle.
I really miss intelligent, switched on media.
Yeah, they could go to Norway where the tax on profits is 73%. Or they could go to nice safe, predictable places like USA or Qatar. I'd like to see that too!
Bye! Don't let the door hit you on your arse on the way out
By the way, thanks for those assets, they're ours now. Nationalised industry, bloody bewdy
What's that? You've realised you can't get the gas anywhere else with the ports, roads, workforce? You'd like to negotiate?
The price just went up

Diesel prices are surging – and freight operators are being squeezed.

Bran Black (BCA), "If the government decides to tax the gas that corporates are currently being given for free and tax free, the corporates will exit Australia and go elsewhere."..
Really? I'd like to see that!

Oh, and by the way, these same corporates to whom we give our gas away for free have the gall to sell OUR FREE gas back to us at premium prices.
#FFS!
#ENOUGH!

Let me see if I understand this.
The uniparty (Lab/Lib/Nat/Phon) says we have to kick disabled children off the NDIS to bring the budget "into line"; meanwhile, the uniparty is giving our gas away for free and NOT TAXING the corporates who are taking our gas and making windfall profits.

CNN’s Harry Enten: “It is a blowout in the net popularity ratings. It’s not even close. It’s a nearly 50 point blowout amongst the American public at large. Pope Leo XIV absolutely crushing Trump when it comes to how popular they are.”

Yet another Marles' #trainwreck interview, this time on Insiders, begs the question of why the ALP still allow him to front the cameras with seasoned interviewers who consistently tear him to shreds.

RBA instragam posts with a pick of 5 apples, 3 1/2 of which are in colour. "High inflation means your money buys less" $5 got you five apples in 2016, today it only gets three and a half
The RBA is on Instagram and FB pushing out posts to justify raising interest rates.
The latest says high inflation is why what used to get 5 apples now only buys you 3 1/2.
OK, but are they really saying higher interest rates lowers the price increase of fruit? Really????
Perhaps the RBA's next Instagram post could explain how punishing apple purchasers with higher mortgage repayments is a sane response to a grocery oligopoly exploiting its market dominance...?

In line with the laissez-faire way that Trump ran his businesses, is it at all surprising that he is now intent on bankrupting the US and causing a world-wide recession, leading into a world-wide depression?
