**In short: **

The government has halved the fuel excise, reducing the cost of petrol and diesel by 26.3 cents a litre for three months.

The heavy road user charge will also be reduced to zero for the same period, taking pressure off truck drivers and transport costs.

Bro you need to go back to the library and hit the books, your worldview and assessment of current events is quite flawed. I wonder, have you pulled any of your understanding from credible sources or just your favourite cooker podcast?

I’d love to hear how I’m wrong about Iran. Please enlighten me.
