Show Notes
Australian petrol stations are implementing fuel purchase limits of 50 litres per vehicle as the crisis intensifies, while Tasmania introduces price caps at the bowser. The federal government faces pressure to coordinate a national response, with calls to reduce the fuel excise from 51 cents per litre to 21 cents, similar to measures taken during COVID. Separately, new analysis shows over a quarter of Australian parents are preventing children aged 4-17 from playing contact sports like footy and rugby due to concussion concerns, with some even restricting non-contact activities like park play and bike riding.
