Net Zero, mates’ state funerals, Nauru Dupe | Scam of the Week
This week’s Scam of the Week involves the kind of political circus you could never make up. State funerals for political friends, two billion dollars flowing into Nauru without receipt, a net-zero backflip by fossil fuel donors and a DroneShield share dump that stunned the market.
We also look at the insider trading saga of the Offset Alps who refuse to die, the Minns government’s sudden blindness to the Nazi protest outside parliament and the Coalition’s new energy plan based on carbon capture fantasy.
Scam of the Week details the stories major media organizations avoid, the conflicts they gloss over, and the decisions that harm the public every day.
