The reason Australia is the world’s largest LNG exporter is we practically give it away, and derive very little community benefit for it beyond direct employment. $92B in annual export revenue of which there’s $600M paid in state royalties, $6M in federal taxation and $0 in PRRT. You’d think that might warrant some comment from the IPA given one of its core objectives is “To maintain and enhance the Australian way of life for the next generation”.

@@alistairdancepmm the shareholders of the gas companies are the main beneficiaries of Australia’s LNG exports - Woodside, Chevron, Shell, BP, Japan LNG, Origin, AGL. 82% of Australia’s natural gas production is exported as LNG - more gas is consumed liquifying gas for export than is used in the domestic market. Domestic gas supply is constrained by export volumes, not production capacity.

@@merrelthorson2224 I guess that’s your captain’s call! Perhaps you have forgotten the debacle of Abbott’s time as PM? Having been warned to change his behaviour a couple of times the Liberal Party politicians removed him from office. Abbott then proceeded to white ant Turnbull eventually allowing Scott Morrison to be PM. Morrison was bad news for the Liberals causing a loss to Labor. Now we have a further right Liberal party ceding the political middle ground to Labor and the Teals. While Tony Abbott may have contributed to the community his political ambitions, in my view, have done considerable damage to the Liberal party particularly destabilising the Turnbull government. In his desire for retribution against Turnbull he failed to consider the good of the Australian community. I suggest Abbott’s problem is too much ego compared to his intellectual capacity. I don’t think Tony has anything left to offer. Doubtless you disagree.

So stop wasting BILLIONS of our money on a flawed concept and bring back affordable energy!!! Coal!!!! And sure, add nuclear to the mix. Happy, as a tax payer, to fund that.
