Thanks for the link although I'm not surprised at this disclosure.
I hope the ACCC are successful in their pursuit. Bill.

Who would have thought, the price of fuel being virtually the same at Shell, Mobil, Caltex, BP is because the oil companies are cheating. Obviously the ACCC just beamed in from deep outer-space and traveling at sub-light speed has taken them some time catch up with events on mainland Australia.
How much does the Aussie taxpayer pays the ACCC to have such insight and grasp on reality

Oil company's colluding , well there's a news flash
They will also spin that they make very little money out of petrol as well The bottom line is that the ACCC aren't as smart as the oil companys and don't have the money they do, to do anything about it . Our government ( doesn't matter which side) couldn't give two hoots as the higher the retail price the more revenue for them Want to bring fuel prices down , every one stay home for a week and don't drive anywhere then those overpaid under achieving ******* in Canberra might sit up and pay attention .... Of course that will never happen so we continue to be screwed |
