Higher registration price
Factor in annual road maintenance charge minus the saving the planet woke pat on the back.
You can come up with a price. V8 is different to a 4 cylinder, how did we come up with this?
HOW CAN ELECTRIC VEHICLE OWNERS PULL THEIR WEIGHT IN PAYING FOR ROAD MAINTENANCE?
I’m part of a NSW Parliamentary Inquiry into this difficult question.
Australia has the highest rate of rooftop solar in the world but the lowest rate of EV take-up, with just 9% of new car sales in NSW.
The Minns Government has abandoned its target of a 50% take-up rate by 2030 as unachievable.
Generally wealthier people own EVs and at the moment, obviously they don’t pay fuel excise, plus they get their government provided charging stations for free. This is a massive inequity compared to low income earners paying the fuel tax every time fill up at a petrol station.
The wealthy are contributing nothing to the money used for road maintenance.
The situation has been complicated by a High Court decision knocking out Victoria’s road user charge on EVs as unconstitutional (as only the Federal Government can levy customs and excise charges on consumption).
Further, a per kilometre charge on EVs has integrity risks (people turning back their odometers) and privacy risks (if governments start tracking where the EVs have been).
What is the best policy answer?
I respect Messi’s greatness, but I’m fully convinced he’s going goal‑less this World Cup and Argentina are getting grouped. He holds them back.

The overuse of "Your a Racist" by Karens all around the world has reduced its meaning to nothing. Seriously, in 2026, calling someone, something Racist is completely meaningless because of losers like this crybaby Karen
This was one of the worst refereeing performances of the decade. 8 nil after 25 mins. He has given the Broncos ZERO chance to compete. Fans dont buy tickets or watch on TV to cheer for a REF.
I'm far from Ashley Klein's biggest fan
But NONE of those calls tonight are what you can call terrible. Just because a penalty count is high doesn't make it wrong.
Klein has had a solid half imo

Australia cannot keep ignoring this.
I spoke on Outsiders about the horrific reality facing Indigenous women and children — and why the truth must be told.
We need accountability. We need action. And we need it now.
Anthony Albanese calls Elon Musk “so out of touch with what Australians want” for refusing Albanese’s request to censor news regarding violent attacks by Muslims on these shores.
He then accuses Musk of “sowing division”
This blokes kidding isn’t he?

Not a broncos fan. No money on the game. Just calling it as I saw it. A relentless leg up from the ref from the first minute that had the Roosters playing downhill first half. Saw the Roosters character when things got a little tough after the 69% possession in the first half. They probably play prelims but they don’t have the toughness that Penrith & Brisbane have. Just my opinion.

I am a Broncos fan and I cant believe what I witnessed. Ref ruined the game. Every Six Again the Rooster got was at the end of a set. Complete farce. NRL, get a better fkn ref for your headline game. This twit should only do Titan and Dragon games

I was at a coffee shop recently, and a beautiful young mother was breastfeeding her gorgeous baby. I thought for a second how can these fkn weirdos shout us down and tell us they are women. They are deeply troubled men who deny their homosexuality
‘Trans people exist. I have no desire for them not to exist; indeed, I wish them safety, happiness and health. However, 'existence' does not, and should not, mean the violation of other people's right to privacy, dignity and freedom of speech, or the reconfiguration of society to indulge a fallacy.’

They really think Trump has no clue what’s going on, when in reality, he now controls the flow of 36%+ of the world’s crude oil supply, and just forced the nations of the world to buy oil from us, and Venezuela, which Trump conveniently already secured, along with the Panama Canal.
Now Trump’s focus on Greenland, Canada, and the Arctic shipping routes, makes even more sense. Trump is securing global shipping lanes, and turning the US into THE global energy superpower.
Trump has China, and the world, by the balls, and the sheep are oblivious. Trump is completely shaking up the global order, and forcing the world to deal through us. Trump is stripping the Deep State of their leverage, and securing the entire board.
You are watching the “world’s most powerful reset”, and the dawning of “The Golden Age”.
The Deep State’s reign is over. They have been outmaneuvered. Trump controls the oil, therefore, he controls the world.
Leverage obtained ✅
who had never served. Never put their lives at risk.
I am profoundly sadden by what has occured today.
The findings are on record
The potential damage to our armed forces, to our ability to defend those we send to battles beyond our shores.
