Fuel Bills, Kiwi Hills, Albanese gets a Spray & Fighting for the Industry

Send us Fan MailDrew and Dave are back in the shed for another no-nonsense yarn covering everything that matters to blokes on the tools and in the industry.This week, the lads kick things off swapping holiday stories from New Zealand before getting stuck into the real talk — fuel prices are through the roof and everything else is following right behind it. Sound familiar? You're not alone.Then it gets serious. Mining jobs are under genuine threat in the current political and economic climate, and the blokes aren't holding back. With the Labour government seemingly turning a blind eye to the industry and offering nothing in the way of a real plan, Drew and Dave ask the hard questions about what the future looks like for hardworking Australians who've built their lives around mining.Net zero? The boys reckon it's time to have an honest conversation about scrapping it altogether.On a more positive note, there's some good news on the political front — Matt Canavan stepping up as the new Nationals leader has the blokes cautiously optimistic. Here's a bloke who actually understands mining and isn't afraid to say it.And of course, Dave wraps things up with another instalment of Dave's Diary — because life on the tools is never short of a story.Grab a cold one and have a listen.
