The Labor MP Ed Husic vowed to keep pushing for a 25% export levy, predicting the groundswell of public support would eventually be too hard for Albanese to ignore.

Husic challenged Albanese’s description of the gas tax campaign as “populist”, noting the same label was used to described Labor’s drive for a royal commission into the banks.

I am glad someone from Labor is sticking up for the levy. Over time, keeping in mind the international situation, the levy should continue to be kept front of mind for when some semblance of 'normality' returns.
