Big Gas' greed is killing Australian manufacturers

The colossal price rises on the east coast, brought on by excessive gas exports, have been a disaster for Australian manufacturers and households.

On this episode of Follow the Money, manufacturing industry representative Geoff Crittenden and Australia Institute Principal Advisor Mark Ogge join Ebony Bennett to discuss how governments can ensure there’s more gas available for Australians.

Dead Centre: How political pragmatism is killing us by Richard Denniss is available now via the Australia Institute website.
