RACQ Petiton for fuel subsidy
For those in Queensland, some of you, I assume, are probably unaware of the State Government's plans to scrap the fuel subsidy in the July budget.
Without this subsidy, fuel will become approximately 9c/litre more expensive and registration costs on all vehicles will increase. The RACQ is doing
an online poll/petition which they intend to send to Premier Bligh objecting the scrapping of the subsidy.
Please sign it here and forward this email to anybody else you know in this State!!

The Qld govt has dropped us deeply in the excrement. They are going to screw all Qlders to cover the $12 billion budget black hole. I figured that
removing this subsidy is going to cost me $250 per year, but those w@nkers who drive vast distances in fuel guzzling vehicles are going to get screwed
big time. Whilst I am not a fan of having to pay more, I kind of like the idea that fuel wasters get screwed far worse.
I'd rather the system Beatie proposed years ago where he was going to remove the fuel subsidy but lower registrations costs. Some tossers whinged so
he did the usual Beatie backflip. Now Bligh(t) and that snake Fraser has increased both the rego and removed the subsidy.
Who was silly enough to vote them in? Any idiot could see things like this is why they called an early election. (Not that the rabble called LNP
would be any better )
