Latest energy figures are out for 2024-25 - once again 83% of Australia's gas is exported or used to convert gas to PNG exports. There is no gas shortage. We do not need more gas. We need to #TAXtheGAS
Charts showing in 2024-25 4,862PJ of gas was exported or used in LNG plants, while only 1,016PJ was use by the domestic economy of mining, manufacturing, residential and gas power plants.

We (rightly) talk a lot about gas, but we should not forget we export a hell of a lot more coal and most of it is for burning for electricity rather than being used to produce steel. And all of it destroys the planet. #NoNewMines
Charts showing annual exports of thermal and coking coal and LNG since  1960-61

In 2024-25:

Thermal coal: 204,847ky
Coking coal: 146,987kt
LNG: 79,128kt

Q: On the ban, what does that mean in practice? Are you taking away their badges? TRUMP: When you say 'the ban,' which ban? Do you know how many bans I'm involved in? I've got more bans going than anyone! Q: But what does it mean? T: I still don't know -- oh, the ban on the free press, right?

"Trump’s personal imposition of his taste is a different story than that of the administration’s overall totalitarian aesthetic, which can best be described perhaps as 'free tier AI image generator with the white supremacist dial turned to 11.'"

Wow -- RNC video: "On June 14th, 1946, God looked down on his planned paradise and said, 'I need a caretaker,' so God gave us Trump." It only gets more unhinged and culty from there.

In econ news, the ABS today says there is no planning for a new "Household Expenditure Survey". This survey breaks down spending by household types - incomes, wealth, age etc. Vital for determining how price changes affect people. Meant to be every 5 years. The last was in 2015-16.
Screenshot:

Economy
Statistical release	Changes made	Rationale
Monthly Business Turnover Indicator	Publication ceased in November 2025	Experimental publication developed in 2021 to provide insights into economic activity following the COVID-19 pandemic. Several alternative measures of business activity by industry are available on the ABS website.

Household Expenditure Survey, Australia: Summary of results	Not currently scheduled	The timing of the next Household Expenditure Survey is to be confirmed. 

Household Income and Wealth, Australia	Schedule correction	Initially scheduled for release in 2027–28 in the 2025–26 FWP, this has been revised to 2026–27 in this FWP.

Australian National Accounts: Input-Output Tables	Frequency change from yearly to two-yearly	The ABS has produced Input-Output (I-O) tables annually since the early 2000s. I-O tables primarily provide detailed structural information on production activity. Because these structures tend to change slowly, the frequency of I-O tables was reviewed in consultation with users. 

Consumer Price Index, Australia	Standalone quarterly publication ceased in October 2025	The ABS now publishes a complete monthly Consumer Price Index (CPI) as the primary measure of headline inflation. Quarterly CPI data tables are included in every third month of the monthly CPI release.

Perfect illustration of why the "antisemitic trope" industry has been completely deligitimised by the actions of the State of Israel, such as the propagation of this video by its national security minister. We don't need to spell it out.

Between The Shot's story about explosives sent to Israel, Deepcut's story about Bisalloy Steel's role, plus all the F-35 parts, I can't help wondering how much of Australia's manufacturing is geared entirely towards facilitating the genocide... Remember when we made fkn cars?!

Absolutely staggering: 152 cases involving ICE and CBP officials or contractors accused or convicted of crimes. 131 involved sex offenses. 78 involved children. Maybe the people demanding unlimited power to hunt down “criminals” should spend a little more time looking inside their own agencies.

We estimate the cut to the NDIS in 2029-30 of $16.4bn is equivalent to around 52,000 jobs in the care sector - around 94m hours of paid care. Those care needs will not disappear they will just fall on families (especially women) live.thepoint.com.au/2026/08/the-...

To accuse the ABC of anti-Israel bias you would have to be untethered from material reality, drowning in your own victim complex, and compulsively gaslighting. The ABC's pro-genocide bias has been overt and disgusting.
