Price caps was never going to work but hey Fullofshitanese was spurred on by his leftard supporters and ran with it… but now those leftards are the 1’s that have egg on their faces… Bravo dumb dumbs

Albo has it under control. He has a plan. Don’t worry.

'The head of a leading gas industry body has raised concerns about the price caps...' The head of Australia raised concerns about the gas industry profits. Don't expect any sympathy from voters/customers. Posting huge profits... and you whinge and want more. NO.

Kick em to the curb, put aussie natural resources back in the hands of aussies.

Cancel the export licenses.

Supply shortage 🙄🤣 There’s a supply shortages because they’re selling all the gas overseas at record profits. Australia has an abundance of gas but hey don’t let a good bull shit story from Newscorpse in defense of these profit mongers get in the way 🙄

No vested interests THERE ... !

The head of a leading gas industry body has raised concerns about losing a little bit of this...

Just remember - the sky high gas prices are the gas cartel profiteering from the Ukraine war.

Such a surprise
