I note that the fossil fuel sector receives over $11 billion in public subsidies every year. I also note that the mineral resources council donated $103,800 in donations to the Labor Party and they recently promised to unleash an ad campaign against Labor unless it ruled out a windfall profits tax. We haven't seen a windfall profits tax, which could fund cost-of-living relief measures to actually help people. Has that donation bought your compliance on that issue? (Time expired)
