foe.org.au Friends of the Earth Australia @foe.org.au · May 19
The community in south eastern SA worked for years to gain a moratorium on the process of fracking.

However, the South Australian Gov is moving to lift the fracking ban in the states south east, which will open the door for new gas drilling operations.

I completely support the #LockTheGate reaction. I wonder if this will make front page of the #DailyTelegraph supporting all the agreived farmers against this dreadful overriding of their land rights ??
And #Minns even uses the anti #renewable quote ... where the fuck is this man's head ? 2/2
Anne Davies Continued from previous post: The threat of compulsory acquisition drew an immediate rebuke from Lock the Gate Alliance. Its national coordinator, Carmel Flint, said: It’s very disappointing to see Premier Chris Minns take the side of gas giant Santos against local farmers and Gomeroi Traditional owners who merely seek to protect land, water, and culture from dangerous gasfields and associated pipelines. Santos is the primary cause of Australia’s gas price hike because it has been siphoning our domestic gas and sending it to overseas markets for the past ten years. Rewarding this company with more gasfields is contrary to the national interest and will do nothing to reduce energy prices. Minns linked the need for more power and compulsory acquisition to saving the Tomago aluminium smelter, which this week spoke to its workforce saying that its future was uncertain beyond 2028 when its current electricity contracts are due to expire. He said NSW remained committed to renewables: Now I want to make it clear, of course, we support renewable energy, but the truth of the matter is, gas is part of the future as well. And when the wind isn’t blowing and the sun isn’t shining, we need to be able to turn on other sources of energy to keep industry going. The truth is, there is no future for domestic manufacturing without the continued presence of gas, particularly on the east coast. There is no renewable energy transition if we don’t have the gas there to back it up. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/live/2025/oct/29/federal-politics-parliament-victoria-queensland-bom-labor-coalition-anthony-albanese-sussan-ley-abs-inflation-apec-summit-afp-press-club-ntwnfb?filterKeyEvents=false&page=with%3Ablock-690199af8f0862851a58e7b4#block-690199af8f0862851a58e7b4
