The swing from the bottom of the petrol cycle to the top was nearly 50c a month ago. It has been divorced from reality for a long while. The ACCC petrol price enquiry did nothing and people were all over Miles about “what’s in it for us poor drivers” when he announced the 50c fares. So it’s a particular pain point in QLD and will be interesting to see what they can do it they push forward with this.

Im sure both of these will go on a list somewhere and we’ll continue to ask “what can we do?”
Credit to the Australian members of parliament who haven’t let this go:
[Prime Minister Anthony] Albanese has said he raised the matter directly with the US, including with the president, Joe Biden, during his visit to Washington in October 2023.
In February this year, Albanese and cabinet members supported a motion put forward by independent MP Andrew Wilkie urging the UK and US to allow Assange to return home to Australia.
The attorney general, Mark Dreyfus, said he also raised the matter with his US counterpart, Merrick Garland, during a meeting in January this year.
Thanks to those 900 complainers who got this to happen!

Absolutely. Great idea.
Good on her for standing up.
The only booth he didn’t win was Windsor. Surprise, surprise, people who live in the inner city preferred the Greens candidate. What a flog.
