      I’m not so sure. I drove 3½ hours north to visit my sister in northern Tasmania yesterday, much of it on highways with 110 kph speed limit. I was doing between 90 and 100 mostly, especially when there were overtaking or double lanes. Almost never got overtaken even when there were 4 or 5 cars behind me. It was quite relaxing.

        Obviously I don’t know why you visited but I think you driving that far for a visit proves my point exactly.

        Also just to clarify. I didn’t mean to literally slow down. I mean slow down consuming fuel.

    Does Pauline, as the leader of the party with supposedly the most votes behind the government, get to give a reply?

    Please give me 5 minutes warning to get the popcorn ready. I’d expect nothing less than “They’re eating the cats and the dogs!” levels of entertainment!

    What shits me is how the opposition no matter what Labour do always say it’s not good enough.

    For once i wish they would shut up and try resolve the problem together rather then thinking about getting in small jobs to win the next election

      Barnaby is no fool, he was very recently and surprising showing humility on skynews(annoyingly) , called out cockatoo opposition noise and admitted to problems he has been a part of in the past. Offering solutions and highlighting serious concerns about food security & transport in areas with zero public transport completely reliant on fuel to get to supermarkets.

      Video may be on youtube or something, ill see if I can find it.

      Edit: found it. https://youtu.be/LYteFCHJ-wA

      No, that can’t be right!

      The opposition always rants and raves about what a bad job the government is doing, and then provides a plan forwards, a rational and clear altern…

      Oh.

      Oh no.

      Sorry, my bad.
