Greens Leader Adam Bandt says his party has been calling “for some time” for gas and coal corporations to be reigned in as they “have been taking this country for a ride”.

Greens Leader Adam Bandt says his party has been calling “for some time” for gas and coal corporations to be reined in as they “have been taking this country for a ride”.

“Power bills have been going up and these coal and gas corporations have been profiteering off people’s pain and off the back of the war in Ukraine,” Mr Bandt said. “Freeze electricity bills for two years, give people money to get off expensive and dirty gas by replacing their appliances … and fund it all by putting a windfall tax on these coal and gas corporations.”

Who does AdamBandt think pays the $3billion in subsidies every year for the Renewables? Being the Airhead he is, he probably thinks it's the greens! Take away the Taxpayer subsidies for Renewables and see how many WindTurbines and SolarPanels get built? My guess Zero!

BANDT wants Communism

Your right a ride to jobs and prosperity

Coal and gas have been paying the bills!!! What will replace them Bandt?

Adam needs to stop taking ice it destroys your body

Well let’s reign in the subsidies for renewables as well. If their so good they wouldn’t need subsidies!! laborfail

Yes! They enable transportation. Efficiently and in Australia have no effect on the world’s temperature.

Funny how these green parties all around the world seem to think that they have some importance one way or another.

The only people who are taking this country for a ride are the leaches in the Greens party who contribute nothing to our society, besides hate & divisiveness as they line up to ride the gravy train 🚂💰💰💰💰

HA HA you cannot even reign in your own people and yet here you are calling the shots on gas and coal corporations, you politicians are destroying our country with these stupid fantasies of wind turbines and solar panels that destroy thousands and thousands of hectares of land

It's time for the renewable industry to be 'reigned in' as they've taken this country for a ride, not gas and coal corporations. Greens are so stupid to consider nuclear as a far viable option to renewables which don't last as long.

🤣🤣🤣🤣nope it’s bandt insanity destroying Victoria for eugenics

Oh great. Fuel prices are going to sky rocket... Even further...

No Andy always reminds me of someone who needs a shave and a gold soaking in a bath tub!

I wish this country would give Adam Bandy a free ride out of here. Perhaps China would be more suitable.

Bandt is a clown, a puppet, a slave and a communist. He actually tweeted saying he attended a ' family friendly LGBT Pride event '. It can either be FAMILY FRIENDLY OR it can be an LGBT Pride event. It can't be BOTH, except in the mind & lifestyle of demon hissssssing Bandt. 🐍

It's a shame he won't even reign in his own senators who are definitely taking this country for a ride.

Yes terrible. All those state royalties they are paying. Just taking us for a ride

He knows he’s safe in making these Grand Statements, because he’ll Never have to implement them. Typical sideline hero.

Their wheels are not as big as yours Greengrass.

despicable greens, Labor's mismanagment means they now need to do a deal with the despicable greens

Greens support needed to pass price caps as Coalition moves for coal company compensationSky News Political Reporter Joel Philp says support from the Greens is needed to pass energy legislation, as the Coalition wants compensation for coal companies if operating costs are above price caps. “Any companies which have an operating cost which is above that cap, those companies could be compensated in negotiations,” Mr Philp said. “The Greens say they don’t want that to occur, that fossil fuels companies shouldn’t be compensated.” How can the government legally cap prices (lower profits) and not provide compensation? Gotta love when even Labor can’t crack a deal with the Greens. They are so unrealistic and narrow minded.
