        Cancel charity status of all political groups, including anti-mining groups. Tax anti-Adani groups at 46% to pay for the extra police.

        This is not about politics - it's about a mine that's a certified environmental disaster that impacts the our future and is premised on a lie.

        I don't need to google it, there will be thousands. Anyone who has any experience with the coal industry knows there will be thousands. Direct & indirect. Perhaps you should google it.

        Tax all charities and religious groups and let them justify their deductions to the ATO like all other organisations. #TaxtheChurch

        The reason these groups are attracting funding is that people care about the environment. @mattjcan should be more concerned that rather than transparency.

        At it again. Fails to tell readers #IPA is funded by fossil fuel (cough) What's that? You didn't realize Murdoch was heavily invested in mining and he's on the warpath because Australian public don't want #Adani? #auspol @GetUp @StopAdani @ClimateGuardia

        Millions flow in to the churches, raising question about charity status and the cover up of abuse. The Murdoch’s look the other way.

        So apparently those who are trying to protect the environment should not have charity status but those who want to destroy it should?
