FFS Jan, are you on KB as husaberg? You can see where it starts.
Around 50% of the cost of fuel is tax, but it's out of govt control.
I look forward to crucial transport infrastructure projects that will be of some benefit to me. Maybe GST free scooter tyres.
Ask her where all the current fuel taxes go. Almost all of the many tax increases to fuel were originally ring fenced for transport/roading improvements. Almost all of them are now consigned to the general consolidated fund, available for buying votes.
That tactic is responsible for most new taxes and increases, across most cost centers: new tax justified to fund that sector's particular infrastructure spending requirements, and then quietly diverted to spend on election promises. Which means another tax, to fund that sector's particular infrastructure spending requirements. This time they haven't even rinsed it, it's almost word for word from the last fuel tax increase.
Go soothingly on the grease mud, as there lurks the skid demon
