Australia’s “president of negotiations” role at this year’s COP31 conference is an exercise in hypocrisy. And it’s one that an increasing number of nations are seeing through, especially our neighbours in the Pacific.

I’m excited to step up as Deputy Leader of the @Greens alongside @DavidShoebridge. My generation has grown up seeing politicians sell out our future for corporate greed: delaying climate action while housing, childcare, and living costs get harder to afford. It has to change.

The only people who want to see the Northern Territory fracked are gas billionaires and the politicians doing their bidding.

Georgie Dent’s National Press Club address today was both a testament to her work on early childhood education and care, and an urgent call for long-overdue action.

Taxpayer money isn't Labor party money either! Albanese should hold his government to the standard he wanted the Morrison government to be held to.

Once again, Labor and their corporate party mates have teamed up to block a minimum 25% gas export tax. While Australians struggle with the cost of living, gas giants are raking in billions in war-driven windfall profits.

The news that charges will be sought against Inpex for under-reporting its toxic emissions is yet more evidence that these multinational gas corporations will always put profits before people and planet.

Labor’s “fair return” on gas is empty words without action. And Albanese has torpedoed them in record time to protect multinational gas corporations.

Even Labor’s own members are sick of their party’s cowardice on a gas export tax. The draft proposal heading to their national conference this week proves they’re feeling the pressure to stop taking direction from the gas lobby and implement a minimum 25% tax on gas exports.

It’s encouraging to hear Labor is finally set to give in to years of pressure from the Greens and the community by fixing Victoria’s broken upper house voting system.

I just moved a moratorium to lock the gas lobby out of parliament, and Labor, the Libs and PHON teamed up to shut it down.

Albo met with the chair of Shell, just to assure him that he’s not going to implement the tax on gas exports that we all want to see. Shell wouldn’t have called this meeting if they weren’t nervous - let’s keep the pressure on with a national vote at taxourgas.com

The NT’s newly announced Climate Resilience Plan is anything but. It’s a plan written by the gas lobby that wants to lock taxpayers into backing more polluting gas projects.

Data centres are a blight on the neighbourhoods they're built in, use as much water as hundreds of thousands of people in one of the most drought-prone countries on earth, and are artificially propping up demand for dying energy sources.

Every day more and more Australians are joining the call for a minimum 25% tax on gas exports. Are the corporate parties only capable of listening to people who donate to them? What's it going to take for them to get on board with the public?

Steph Hodgins-May @stephhodgins-may.bsky.social · 27/05/2026

Maybe we should have a referendum on a minimum 25% gas export tax

Never thought I'd be scrolling through reviews to see a mention of a gas exports tax. They've got the right idea. If you agree, head to taxourgas.com.

Last night, Israel intercepted the Global Sumud Flotilla carrying aid to Gaza. The activists on board, including a number of Australians, have acted with courage to bring much needed food and medical aid through the illegal blockade.

The government had a choice with this budget: whether they would govern for everyday Australians, or for the gas billionaires. They chose… poorly.

The great Australian gas tax rip off continues. Today’s announcement isn’t just for the gas industry, it’s by the gas industry.

You’d think Labor would be wanting to make it easier for people to get off petrol and diesel and on to electric during a fuel crisis, but not judging by their latest announcements.

More and more Australians are speaking up about the free ride the government is giving the tax industry. And this week, our inquiry has uncovered just how badly Australia is being ripped off.

Steph Hodgins-May @stephhodgins-may.bsky.social · 23/04/2026

Labor kicking more than 160,000 disabled Australians off the NDIS is absolutely shameful. Vulnerable people should not have to pay the price for a system left open to exploitation by this government.

This morning we heard Shell try to defend the indefensible. The representatives they sent to our inquiry tried to sugar coat it, but the numbers are undeniable - especially when that number is zero.

Hearings for our inquiry into gas export tax begin today, and right off the bat the evidence against the current system is stunning. Just how cheaply are we giving away our gas? Dr Richard Denniss from The Aus Institute dropped this…

Steph Hodgins-May @stephhodgins-may.bsky.social · 20/04/2026

The program for our inquiry into gas export tax this week is out, and it turns out not a single CEO is going to bother turning up. That’s right - the gas bosses declined a request to attend a parliamentary inquiry into their own industry.

1105

Steph Hodgins-May @stephhodgins-may.bsky.social · 17/04/2026

The Greens have made it clear the CEOs of our major gas exporters must front our inquiry into gas tax. Australians are being ripped off while multinational gas giants continue to make record profits. It's time they stopped writing the rules and started playing by them.

So relieved to hear that no workers or community members were harmed in the Viva refinery fire in Geelong. The refinery sits very close to residential areas, and it was a scary situation for them overnight. The ongoing fire is also impacting the air quality around a big patch of Geelong.

These are the sort of risks that the Geelong community have been saying they are worried about if Viva or VOPAK’s gas import terminals are approved by Labor. Not theoretical risks - real risks to the health and safety of workers and residents. We must urgently end our dependence on fossil fuels.

A minimum 25% tax on gas exports would raise an estimated $17 billion dollars a year. That's money that we can use to protect domestic gas supply, and fund the renewable energy transition to ensure energy sovereignty and security in a chaotic world.

Trump's threats are putting millions of lives at risk. This genocidal rhetoric sets a dangerous standard - one the Labor government seems happy to accept. Australia needs to pull out of AUKUS and stop positioning ourselves alongside such violent bullies.
