Ed Husic calls out Japan’s hypocrisy of resisting gas export taxes while pocketing $40B in energy import taxes. “They import it, collect tax revenue, & make money reselling gas they’re not using themselves.”💥 Australia’s resources, Japan’s revenue. This has to change. #auspol

Rare is the occasion Australia finds the guts to stop sucking up to its 'allies' & say "NO." But Trump just put a 100% tariff on Aussie Pharma, trying to force our prices up, so we stop underselling the beggaring prices of Big Pharma in US AND Australia. We said 'NO' Love it. Say it more pollies!

Separately, the Pentagon notified Congress on Monday that it intended to divert about $750 million in funding provided by NATO countries through the PURL program to restock the U.S. military's own inventories, rather than to send additional assistance to Ukraine, according to two U.S. officials.
The first official said it was unclear whether European countries participating in the initiative understood how the funding was being spent.

STATEMENT FROM THE AUSTRALIA INSTITUTE
8 January 2026
Following a statement from the board responsible for the Adelaide Festival organisation and all Adelaide Writers’ Week events, The Australia Institute is withdrawing its support and sponsored events from this year’s literary festival.
The Australia Institute has valued being part of discussions at the event, which in the past have promoted bravery, freedom of expression and the exchange of ideas.
Censoring or cancelling authors is not in the spirit of an open and free exchange of ideas.

Royal commissions are often used to buy time, not create change
The hardest part of any inquiry is not uncovering the truth; it is acting on it, as experience has shown.
