I’m reliably informed that both Albo and Bowen have contacted the USA government and formally asked for them to release our 90 days oil reserves stored in Texas under a deal done by Fantastic, great work Angus and Scomo.

It never got passed middle American government management and once they stopped laughing reply.

“President Trump will consider your request when his schedule permits “.

They then rolled around on floor in laughter.

The yanks laughed that their is one fool born every minute but Australia has a government full of fools!

“ Australia missed out on $63 billion in potential taxes from gas exports in just four years, new modelling suggests, as its fossil fuel “cartel” appears set to reap increased profits due to the Middle East crisis.”

Albo is considering it but first needs to understand that the initial decision to give our resources away for free by John Howard and the LNP has been paid off in full via brown paper bags of $100 notes to all the decision makers initially involved by the “ fuel cartel “.

I believe it’s fair and reasonable to ask what all levels of government are doing to conserve our couple of weeks left of fuel.

Are taxpayers funded comcars now being shared between politicians rather than one car per politician?

Indeed why aren’t they simply being collected daily by a bus and taken to and from work?

The immediate removal of any taxpayer funded travel from Anika Wells would add at least three extra days supply to the national total!

The reports that Tony Burqa flew from Brisbane to Canberra and back within the Iran soccer team promotion should be held up to a senate enquire.

Why did he have to fly?

What couldn’t have been discussed via a phone call ?

Will senior nsw state politicians continue to use com cars to collect their children from school and enjoy free taxpayer funded travel on drunken winery tours?

Will council trucks continue to drive around in circles doing nothing more than avoiding going back to the depot where they may be asked to perform a job?

What is our leaders plan to tighten their belts and lead by example?

I’m not holding my breath that they have one.

We will all suffer but it will be rorts as usual for the government.

Geez Lee - chill out! The posting was meant to demonstrate that no matter how high or deep our thinking, decisions made and discarded, bureaus formed and unformed, clouds filled with data etc - at the moment if the little plank of Hormuz goes away - it all turns to custard. I thought it a very good “cartoon"

Now let me get this straight..... ther is more fuel in Australia rtioday than when this Iran business started.... say government sources = ministers .... so even if some people are hoarding and panicking ........ how does that create a NEED to instantly raise the prices by 50% and skywards?

ONLY if there is a genuine shortage is there any NEED to raise prices - so this is all lies to cover over blatant price gouging that brings to the government coffers more tax.

Governent and big business working in lockstep again.

So - simple - no filling of containers ....... should have been the case a fortnight ago.... if that doesn't work odd numbers and even numbers on odd and even days. I can live with that - I've got about 450 km range in my tank.... full range is 900+ (diesel) ... only NEED to go to town - say a 100 km round trip - for doctors and groceries etc - piss up at the club (one beer and $20 flung at pokies) - so copping even $50 every two days is more than enough for me, and I live out of town.

The biggest cry heard is - WHY ARE GOVERNMENTS NOT ACTING NOW IF THERE IS A CRISIS?

See above about operating in lockstep with business... banks clearly over property... now fuel.

Anyone need any more persuading that Labor is NOT the party of the people and the overall aim is to rape the people as much as possible?
