Brisbane, Queensland. An electable government needs to look at fuel pricing immediately - the people of Australia need action on this and all other energy sectors. The people will vote with their feet to a party who will back the Australians who provide the income taxes, the backbone of the tax system.

Most interested in the royal commission. And fuel prices are a major reason I will be using my rooftop solar energy when when I get my electric Hyundai ioniq in November.

I have never been witness before to such a blatant across the board blanket accumulation of funds from the taxpayer to prop up mismanaged govt. coffers

Average earning families cannot afford higher fuel, power and food expenses. We cannot make any further cutbacks, it’s tome for the government to stand up for the people and not their companies.

The cost of running a vehicle is far too high in Australia. Fuel is not a luxury item and there for needs to be exempt from the GST.

As a tradesperson my income should not be hindered by spiraling fuel prices, and the tax means people who use transport for work are getting taxed more than those who dont

The price of fuel is killing the economy and will impact wage demands and fuel inflation.

This is a big country, without the infrastructure to enable us to avoid using our cars. Stop ripping us off on a commodity equally as important as food and housing!

This is a sad state of affairs when the Australian government know that people are hurting over the exorbitant fuel prices and they aren't doing anything to ease the burden. We the people will make this an election issue and this could place the government in a difficult position at the next federal election.
