Fossil Gas Cartel Blackmailing Australians

Shell and other east coast gas suppliers it’s being reported threatening domestic supply by cutting off east coast consumers from new supply contracts.

Friends of the Earth calls on the Federal Government to maintain its resolve and push ahead with legislation this week that will put a price cap on energy, no matter what threats come from this dirty, war-profiteering cartel.

“In response to this blackmail threat the industry should immediately be slapped with a super-profits tax so that the Australian public can recoup some of the money these multinational giants are making out of the suffering in Ukraine,” Friends of the Earth No More Gas Campaigner Freja Leonard said.
