Albanese slammed over cost-of-living inaction amid petrol price surge

“I am going to return to a favoured topic of mine which is petrol prices around the country,” he said

“I am assuming by now the prime minister has well and truly turned off, but still, his government inherited 23 cents per litre as the taxation.

“However, they decided to increase it … they are all about the cost-of-living but they won’t cut that tax.

“That cut would be beneficial to people when they are paying, we checked this tonight, $2.13 in Sydney, $2.21 in Melbourne, $2.28 in Brisbane.”
