One in four Australian households struggle to pay rising energy and gas bills. Why are costs soaring? Net Zero. Now, MP Barnaby Joyce has tabled a bill to repeal it, echoing Senator Matt Canavan’s push to scrap the policy. Here's why they're right, and why Net Zero must end🧵

The ABC have finally conceded that their reporting of our new research, Delivering a High Energy Australia got it wrong. For those who haven’t been tracking the story, on Monday night on 7.30, the ABC deliberately misrepresented our report that led to the National Party

15/ We stand at a crossroad. We can either keep chasing Net Zero targets that drive up prices, shut down industry, and weaken our nation. Or we can rebuild a High Energy Australia that puts people, prosperity, and sovereignty first. It’s time to choose.

14/ These six principles are not the be-all and end-all. They’re intended to start a national conversation about how we rebuild Australia’s energy system and put the interests of our people first. Because real solutions won’t come from global summits or lobbyists in Canberra.

13/ We must never trade away our prosperity, jobs, or sovereignty in pursuit of global approval. A strong energy policy defends our way of life and ensures the next generation inherits a safer, more prosperous Australia.

12/ SIX: PROTECT OUR SECURITY AND PROSPERITY Energy security is national security. A nation that can’t power its homes, factories, and defences is a nation that can’t stand on its own.

11/ And it means welcoming proven power sources, like nuclear or advanced coal and gas. We should stop treating some technologies as taboo and others as sacred. The goal is affordable, reliable power for all Australians, not fearmongering or ideology.

10/ FIVE: BACK INNOVATION AND SUPPORT ALL TECHNOLOGIES Australia should embrace a commonsense, technology-neutral approach. That means using renewables where they make sense, such as in commercial and industrial precincts, not plastered across pristine landscapes or prime

9/ Real solutions come from the ground up, not from global conferences or city think-tanks. The people who live on the land understand it best, and when they’re trusted to lead, the results last.

8/ FOUR: EMPOWER LOCAL ACTION Canberra can’t fix every problem, but local communities know what works. A better approach is one that enables towns, farmers, and councils to take the lead: restoring rivers, replanting forests, and improving soils while creating local jobs and

7/ If climate policy is worth pursuing, it must be fair, shared evenly across all sectors and not dumped on the very people who keep the country running.

6/ THREE: SHARE THE BURDEN EQUALLY The cost of cutting emissions shouldn’t fall on working Australians while elites pat themselves on the back. Regional industries, farmers, truckies, and low-income households shouldn’t be made to carry the entire load.

5/ We should move in line with comparable nations, and not sprint ahead while the world’s largest emitters, like China and India, keep burning coal and growing stronger. Doing our “fair share” means being responsible, not self-destructive.

4/ TWO: DO OUR FAIR SHARE Australia produces barely 1% of global emissions. Yet we’re told to act as if the future of the world depends solely on us. We shouldn’t cripple our own economy to make a moral statement no one else is listening to.

3/ Net Zero flips this on its head. It puts emissions targets above people. The first goal of any serious energy policy should be simple: lower prices, secure supply, strengthen our nation.

2/ Before we chase arbitrary targets dreamt up by UN bureaucrats and inner-city elites, we should make sure families can afford to turn on the lights and businesses can keep the machines running.

1/ ONE: LOWER ENERGY PRICES FIRST Energy policy must put Australians first. It is as simple as that. This country was built on cheap, reliable energy. Without it, all industries struggle: from farming and manufacturing, to refining and transport.

Labor promised to lower energy bills. Instead, since adopting Net Zero, household power prices have surged by around 40%. It's clear that Net Zero is breaking Australia. So it’s time we talk about the alternative. Our latest report lays out six principles for how we rebuild a
