**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.

You’re not really going to argue that ending a world war was a bad thing, are you?

We don’t want more countries having nukes, especially countries that produce the most terrorist attacks and that literally tell us that they want to destroy the western world.
