Australians want their gas market fixed where it was broken and for exports to be constrained. If designed well, export licensing could deliver ‘uncontracted gas’ to domestic users rather than letting the gas companies export it all. thepoint.com.au/opinions/251...

Australia is paying $750m to a US prison company and $2.5bn in a secret deal to Nauru, yet the hundred or so asylum seekers in Nauru are starving.
It’s called corruption, and someone in authority should look into it.
