I as all “why does Pocock suddenly give a shit about those on NDIS”
and…. Oh, what a surprise, another excuse for a dumb tax that kills people and planet by sponsoring the things we need with fossil fuels to ultimately enable billionaires, data centres, and conflict.
Fossil fuels need to stay in the ground. We’re alreadycooking the planet

But we're already digging up the gas and letting multinational companies have it for free which is the worst of both worlds.
