I'm about to speak against this bill to lift the ban on gas drilling in Victoria. Looks like I'll be the only one. Six LNP, one ind and six Labor speakers are speaking in support. #SpringSt #ClimateEmergency #VicGasBan #Greens
Andrews Govt and LNP speakers trotting out the same arguments:
1. Gas is a transition fuel.
No it's not. Fugitive emissions remove any advantage it had over CO2. This gas is methane, 84 times more potent than CO2 as a greenhouse gas over 20 years.

2. Gas drilling in Vic will lower gas prices.
No it won't. There's not a large enough quantity there. If there was, Australia's cartel of gas producers and the link to overseas oil prices wouldn't allow the price to fall. #springst #VicGasBan
