Approval of biggest coal project in NSW planning commission’s history described as ‘infamous betrayal’ "The New South Wales independent planner has approved the biggest coalmine project to ever go before it, allowing mining to continue until 2045 at a Hunter Valley project described by climate groups as a “carbon bomb”. On Wednesday, the commission said the greenhouse gas emissions from the mine, near Singleton, would “contribute to climate change impacts on the people, economy and environment of the Hunter region, NSW and globally”. The Climate Council had described the project as a “climate bomb that would supercharge climate disasters”. One of its councillors – the former NSW Fire and Rescue commissioner Greg Mullins – on Wednesday raised concerns over overseas emissions from the coal. “What NSW exports as coal, we import back as bushfires, floods, heatwaves and droughts,” Mullins said. “Climate harm does not stop at the border, and neither does the responsibility for it.”" Once again the corrupt Labor party showing they couldn't give a sh!t about Australians, only Lobbyist Dollars, no matter the cost to environment, peoples health, or even the survival of the Human race.. Just short-term money money money!! https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2026/sep/30/hunter-valley-coal-project-singleton-ipc-planning-decision #LaborFail #EnvironmentalTerrorism #ClimateChange #HumanRights #AnimalRights #PlanetaryRights #News #Australia #Environment #LobbyInfluence

"Agreement to transition away from fossil fuels ‘not open for renegotiation’, Pacific leader tells pre-Cop" I bet Mr 'Fossil-Fuels' Albanese wasn't happy with that.. "Speaking at a “saultalaga” – an exchange of views around a meeting table – at the end of a three-hour visit, a string of leaders argued the world must stand behind a 2023 agreement, made at a UN summit in Dubai, to transition away from fossil fuels. More recently it has faced wavering support, with pushback particularly led by oil-producing nations." And Labor granting NSW's _BIGGEST_ fossil fuel project in history just this past week doesn't help matters.. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2026/oct/06/agreement-to-transition-away-from-fossil-fuels-not-open-for-renegotiation-pacific-leader-tells-pre-cop There's only one party who aren't in the pocket of the fossil fuel industry, and - love them or hate them - the Greens are Australia's only real hope. #ShamGovernment #LaborFail #FossilFuelLobbyInfluence #News #AUSPol #Environment #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #HumanRights #AnimalRights #PlanetaryRights #Activism #Greens

"Mixed start for pre-Cop as just two non-Pacific leaders accept Australian invitation to climate summit" "The Australian prime minister, Anthony Albanese, has declared it is “important that Pacific voices are heard” [while granting huge fossil fuel projects in NSW] after landing in Fiji on Monday to attend his first UN climate summit since becoming prime minister more than four years ago." What an absolute sham of a politician Albo is. #LaborHasToGOhttps://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2026/oct/05/mixed-start-for-pre-cop-as-just-two-non-pacific-leaders-accept-australian-invitation-to-climate-summit #Corruption #PotCallingTheKettleBlack #LaborFail #News #COP #Activism #HumanRights #Environment #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #Australia #Pacific #Fiji #FijiPol

Spot On: Paul Keating says Aukus locking Australia into a US war against China, which it would ‘certainly lose’ "..Paul Keating has said the submarine deal is locking Australia in to any future US conflict with China – “a war America would certainly lose” – and making Australia a target for retribution. The former prime minister seized on comments reported out of Washington this week from Republican congressman Michael McCaul – a China hawk and co-chair of the Congressional Friends of Australia caucus – who said “Australia is a target” for enemies of the US.." The entire "China Threat" is made up, it doesn't exist, it's an american sales-tactic used for decades to sell weapons and take over other countries bases, which is exactly what we're witnessing right now here in Australia with Labor surrendering Australian bases to full-american control. This madness needs to stop. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/sep/18/paul-keating-aukus-locking-australia-into-us-china-war #Aukus #LaborFail #Corruption #Complicity #News #AUSPol #Australia #Activism

"Possums in the roof, koalas in bed: study shows how animals resort to Australian homes after habitat loss" Well where else are they going to go after humans have destroyed their environments? Just like Humans will; we'll be invading worms homes by having to move underground (for the brief time we have left as a species) when the fossil fuel CEOs have finished turning the surface of Earth into an oven nothing can survive on (which it's well on its way to becoming right now). https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2026/sep/06/possums-in-the-roof-koalas-in-bed-study-shows-how-animals-resort-to-australian-homes-after-habitat-loss #EnvironmentalTerrorism #LaborFail #FossilFuels #News #Environment #HumanRights #AnimalRights #Activism #ClimateChange

Labor has approved a whopping 37 toxic fossil fuel climate-wrecking projects! And again Wong refuses to answer the questions.. "Last week, the Albanese Government approved another fossil fuel project. An extension to a coal mine in Queensland. On the very same day, the UN issued its first prediction that the world will not be able to constrain global warming to 1.5 degrees. Yet the Minister can't answer a simple question about the number of new coal and gas projects that have been approved by Labor since they came to government in May 2022. Labor must explain to the Australian people - who are waking up to bushfire warnings today and preparing for a deadly summer ahead - why they are continuing to put the corporate profits of the big polluters ahead of the safety of people and nature." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RiwWZTBKaY0 #LaborFail #Corruption #FossilFuelLobbyInfluence #EnvironmentalTerrorism #ClimateChange #Environment #HumanRights #AnimalRights #Activism #AUSPol #Australia #News #Health

Why can't Labor answer simple questions about their climate inaction?

Nearly 1,500 properties bought using first home buyers’ 5% deposit scheme converted into investments "Barbara Pocock, the Greens’ housing spokesperson, said the scheme was supposed to help first home buyers on lower incomes to get a roof over their heads. “It shouldn’t benefit the wealthy and property investors,” Pocock said. The Albanese government amended the scheme so it no longer excluded high-income earners in October 2025. Since then, it had enabled more than 5,600 home purchases each month on average, compared with just over 3,400 the year before." https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2026/aug/06/first-home-buyers-deposit-scheme-investment-property #LaborFail #Housing #Homelessness #HumanRights #News #AUSPol

Anthony Albanese and the corrupt Labor Party have refused to admit there is a Genocide going on in Gaza. "Ed Husic’s push for Labor to recognise claims of a genocide against Israel has failed amid resistance from factional powerbrokers, prompting the backbencher to criticise the party’s culture under Anthony Albanese." #LaborIsAGenocideEnabler https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2026/jul/25/ed-husic-labor-gaza-genocide-claims-ntwnfb #LaborComplicit #Corruption #HumanRights #CrimesAgainstHumanity #News #Labor #LaborFail #Complicit #AUSPol #Activism

Adelaide airport pulls ads from conservation groups but keeps gas and mining ads during ALP conference "Digital billboards from environmental groups, targeting Labor MPs attending national conference, cancelled with airport stating they are ‘too political’" It would upset the poor complicit fossil-fuel *sponsored* pollies too much apparently..

#AUKUS has already been a complete failure for years, it will NEVER provide submarines for Australia's defence, it will never even provide 'defence' seeing as those planned subs are already years out of date and the plans well known globally (even to prospective foe nations).. Aukus is nothing more than corrupt Labor's attempt to fund & appease the DT Regime, nothing more, nothing less, Labor know it, Liberals know it, the UK knows is, the DT Regime knows it, and the people of Australia know it. #ItsTimeToDumpLaborAndAUKUShttps://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/jul/23/alp-conference-why-wont-labor-interrogate-aukus-nuclear-submarines #AppeasementCash #LootingTaxpayersToFundRegimes #LaborFail #Complicit #Corruption #News #AUSPol

Anthony Albanese’s 'AI vision' scores high on vibes but the devil will be in the detail. And there is one glaring omission … "..There are cabinet documents that tell a different story to the speech – one where the prime minister was set to sponsor a submission exploring “legal avenues” to give AI companies access to Australians’ work in return for massive datacentre investment." https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/commentisfree/2026/jul/16/anthony-albanese-ai-vision-artificial-intelligence-omission #LaborFail #Corruption #Misinformation #News #AUSPol #HumanRights #CreativeRights #Activism #Copyright #Law

Labor have granted yet another heavily-polluting toxic gas drilling project: Annie Gas Field Project approved for waters near iconic Twelve Apostles in Otway Basin "The Victorian Greens have slammed the project, saying the government should not be approving fossil fuel projects that slow the energy transition. Environment Victoria has also criticised the approval. The not-for-profit's climate campaign manager Joy Toose said the government should be continuing to help more Victorian households and businesses switch to electric energy, instead of locking in new gas projects. " Labor is moving further and further over to the Far-Right every day in their constant appeasement of the Fossil Fuel Industry, the DT Regime and constant unwavering support of Israel the Terrorist State, when will their tyranny end? https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-05-07/new-gas-field-near-twelve-apostles-approved/106651312 #LaborFail #ClimateChange #Environment #News #AUSPol #HumanRights #Activism

At least 160,000 people to be removed from NDIS as Labor unveils "unavoidable and urgent" cuts

  • as the fossil fuel industry rubs their hands together grinning and awaiting the sweet sweet cash-influx..

"At least 160,000 people are expected to be removed from the National Disability Insurance Scheme by 2030, as the Albanese government looks to claw back savings by changing who can access the scheme.

The health minister, Mark Butler, also announced on Wednesday the $50bn scheme’s growth rate will be brought down to just 2% every year until 2030 in an effort to curb annual plan inflation and produce billions in savings.

The government will dramatically increase the categories of service providers required to register with the federal government, adding more higher risk activities, including personal care, daily living supports, and supports provided in closed settings."

  • So while the responsibilities of the care providers are increased, their pay goes down.

"There are about 760,000 people on the scheme at the moment, meaning at least 160,000 will no longer be able to access the NDIS within four years.

“These are hard decisions – but they’re unavoidable and urgent,” Butler said."

  • But apparently new gas projects, perks for the fossil fuel industry, paying the DT regime $368b for subs we'll never receive, etc.etc.etc. are 'Easy decisions' for Labor.. Well done Labor, good job, as usual.. 🙄

New more factual headline: "NDIS is costing too much and growing too fast because the fossil fuel industry is making people sicker and sicker, so we're going to abandon the sick by cutting NDIS in favor of continued support to the fossil fuel industry that's making everyone sick" There you go, wasn't that hard to tell the truth now was it? https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/live/2026/apr/22/australia-news-live-ndis-savings-cuts-mark-butler-aged-care-cost-of-living-budget-jim-chalmers-labor-coalition-ntwnfb #LaborFail #NDIS #Corruption #AUSPol #News #HumanRights #Health #Activism

Palestinian groups launch legal bid to shed light on Australian arms export permits to Israel "A trio of Palestinian human rights groups have launched a legal bid to force Australia’s defence minister, Richard Marles, to shed light on whether the government has approved Israel-bound export permits, which could violate international law. The Albanese government has repeatedly denied that Australia has supplied weapons to Israel since 7 October 2023, and downplayed existing permits as “dual-use” – permits for parts or technologies typically used for commercial or civilian use, but “with potential military and weapons of mass destruction application”." https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2026/apr/14/palestinian-groups-legal-action-australian-arms-weapons-exports-israel-ntwnfb #Complicit #LaborFail #BoycottIsrael #HumanRights #Activism #News #AUSPol
