The numbers are in!
12 months after Australia started letting American beef into this country we have purchased the grand total of 230kg of their slop. That's a $7,868.00 trade boost for the U.S.
That's not even one cow.
Well done Aussies!

@mirandadevine It’s a joke to believe anything you say. Stopped clocks are right twice a day. However, you…well, let’s just say you are missing the hands, the numbers, the spring, etc

We’re seeing oil and gas prices skyrocket and have no mechanism to ensure Australians benefit from higher prices - we currently just get slugged with higher petrol and energy prices while gas companies make bank.
We can and should fix the broken PRRT that allows gas companies to book windfall profits while paying very little tax. It's time for a 25% tax on gas export revenue.
If the government won't do that they could at least introduce a windfall profits tax.
