While families are being smashed at the bowser, Labor’s answer is “buy an EV” instead of backing immediate relief in slashing the fuel excise.
26c a litre isn’t everything, but it’s a start and we’ll keep pushing to make sure you pay less.

Right now, what we need is an immediate tax cut at the bowser and a government that gets fuel to where it is needed.
Mar 27
I am calling on the Government to immediately halve the fuel tax for three months.
It is a simple step that would cut prices by around 26 cents per litre and deliver real relief.
Inflation has already beaten this Government. This crisis is making it worse.
I have suggested specific ways this relief can be responsibly delivered by sensible reprioritisation of other government spending programs.
These include: reversing the Government’s green hydrogen subsidies and tax credits and pausing and strengthening controls around the Home Battery Scheme.
We will protect Australians’ way of life and restore their standard of living.

We’ve asked Anthony Albanese to immediately halve the fuel tax for 3 months.
We’ve also put forward sensible options to fund this measure.
This would provide immediate relief to Australians who are struggling right now.

We have done the work, and put on the table practical action to provide relief to Australians who are struggling right now.

Labor should put petty politics aside and implement our common sense plan to provide relief to Australians at the bowser.
Mar 27
This is a practical, immediate step the Government can take today to ease pressure on Australians being hit by surging fuel prices.

Australians are facing a fuel security crisis, a crisis Labor has failed to take leadership of. That’s why I’m calling on the government to halve the fuel excise tax which will put 26c per litre back in your pocket.
We need affordable petrol, and we need it now.

Labor says fuel stocks are up, but 500+ servos are empty.
If the supply is there, why isn’t it reaching Australians?
Because it’s not just the servos that are sold out, it’s the Government.

Australians are hurting. Petrol prices are surging and they’re pulling up at the petrol station to see those yellow plastic tickets saying the bowser is empty.
Meanwhile, the Prime Minister and the Energy Minister are asleep at the wheel, telling us everything’s fine.
Every Australian who’s pulled into a petrol station lately knows that’s not true.
Labor must do better. And they must do it now.
Mar 26
Australians are done with the high prices and uncertainty at the bowser.
Mar 25
Inflation in Australia is higher than in every major advanced economy, and it is being driven by decisions made in Canberra, not just events overseas.
Mar 25
Before the war, Australians were already paying a high price for Labor`s high inflation.

Before this war began, Australia`s inflation was higher than any major advanced economy.
