Why

If you’ve paid any tax at all in the last decade, you’ve paid more than the global gas giants exporting our gas from Queensland have ever paid in company income tax.

These corporations export two thirds of the gas produced in eastern Australia, selling it for tens of billions of dollars annually. They use more gas just running their export terminals than we use electricity, yet apparently we now have to import gas!

Gas exports have led to a tripling of wholesale gas and electricity prices since LNG exports began in 2015. LNG companies deliberately exposed Australians to global prices, which is driving up YOUR energy bills.

Join Konrad Benjamin and Mark Ogge to find out how the gas industry has managed this spectacular heist of our gas and what can be done about it.
