FRACKING is back in the spotlight again after Territory Alliance leader Terry Mills backflipped and said he’d ban the practice if elected.
But what do Territorians truly think?

It comes as Mr Mills pledged his party would ban fracking in the NT if elected in August.
Mr Mills released the Territory Alliance’s Fracking in the NT policy position paper this morning after he was blocked from tabling the report in parliament.
“Under Territory Alliance there will be no more fracking in the Northern Territory,” the report says.
“Existing exploration licences will not be renewed, and no more production permits will be issued.”
This is a backflip from what Mr Mills said in January this year, when he said Territory Alliance would back fracking in the NT for the foreseeable future.
