How Every Major Party BOWED To The Gas Cartel | Citizens Report 24 Sept 2026

This week Elisa Barwick and Richard Bardon expose the "Great Gas Betrayal", how every major political party has caved to the gas cartel. Pauline Hanson tabled a gas reservation bill in March 2026, demanding Australian gas benefit Australians first. Weeks later, she received a light aircraft donated by Gina Rinehart. By June, One Nation had abandoned its own gas policy calling gas reservation a threat to "domestic" companies, including Senex Energy, which is 51% foreign-owned and 49% owned by Rinehart's Hancock Prospecting. We also break down: Labor's toothless gas scheme. Chris Bowen announced "up to" 20% reservation, but there's no floor, no price controls, and no mention of affordability in 130+ pages of legislation Peter Dutton's abandoned East Coast reservation reportedly killed after Rinehart objected Colin Barnett's pipeline solution, the former WA Premier's 20-year push for a transcontinental gas pipeline War & Regulatory Reset. Trump's UN threats against Iran, NATO escalation with Russia, AUKUS as a target, the IMF's austerity demands, and the BIS push for bail-in regimes Australia Post caught lying to the Senate. CEO Paul Graham contradicted by his own legal counsel, and our proposal to appoint Angela Cramp as the new chair.
