Reported at michaelwest.com.au: BHP whistleblower James Joseph has alleged corporate misconduct, including secret negotiations with former Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull to transform the Hunter Valley coal mine into lakes for renewable energy, without proper public consultation or regulation adherence.

Despite his whistleblower status, Joseph faced severe retaliation, including death threats and workplace bullying.

The proposed project, potentially one of the largest infrastructure plans in Australia, raises concerns about corporate governance, environmental impact, and the treatment of whistleblowers in the coal industry.
