The Coalition has unveiled a plan to automatically cut fuel taxes whenever global oil prices spike, in direct opposition to the Albanese government's decision not to introduce another fuel excise cut.
Opposition Leader Angus Taylor unveiled the Coalition's 'Fuel Price Shield' on Sunday, claiming it could save motorists up to 27¢ a litre at the bowser and about $15 on the cost of a typical tank.
Under the scheme, fuel excise would be halved whenever the two-week average closing price of Brent crude oil exceeds US$100 a barrel. assertive
