  • Dr Richard Denniss on the Great Australian Gas Scam
    18 Aug 2026

    The Australia Institute's Dr Richard Denniss speaks about his new essay "MORE FOOL ME: How the gas industry tricked Australia" and the multi-generation scam pulled on Australian citizens and politicians by the fossil fuel industry, and says the only way forward is to own up to the fact that Australians were fooled.


    One by one, Jo and Richard pick apart the gas companies' excuses for why they shouldn't be taxed -- and examine why our elected representatives and our media are giving voice to these corporations' talking points.
