What Labor’s changes mean for the price of your petrol

from Full Story · host The Guardian

Facing pressure over mounting petrol prices, the prime minister called an emergency meeting of the national cabinet on Monday to come up with a plan for the fuel shortage crisis. And despite previously saying there would be no cut to the fuel excise, that is exactly what Anthony Albanese has done, starting from today. Political reporter and chief-of-staff Josh Butler speaks to Reged Ahmad about whether this will bring down fuel prices and what restrictions and measures consumers could face if the crisis continues.
