Regional areas will be hit hardest by the price rises, as more fuel is required to transport goods further distances from metropolitan distribution centres.

"The cost of fuel and fertiliser is flowing through the supply chain, and we're going to see in metro areas probably a 2 or 3 per cent increase across the board," market analyst and director of Episode 3, Matt Dalgleish, said.

"We're seeing record prices for diesel, and that's what most of Australia's freight runs on.

"In regional areas it could get higher, maybe 10 per cent, depending on how remote the area is and how stretched the supply chain is."

the nuclear weapons Trump said were all destroyed... on multiple occasions ?

so the only religious fuckbaggery country in the middle east that can have nuckear weapons is Israel ?

as an aside, so has China... that aside, Iran has already hardened their stance and has said there is no peace plan where they give up their nuclear plans and the two things that have been made clear to Iran amongst all this stupidity is 1. they need nuclear weapons for MAD defence AND they control the Strait of Hormuz.

It's not honest to wave these factors away.

It's not honest to raise them because they are Furphies.
