PAT IN PARLIAMENT: FUEL SUPPLY TO THE REGIONS
The backflip on halving the fuel excise was one small step for everyday Aussies, but a giant leap is now required from this Government to keep our country running.
🚫No farmers, no food.
🚫No freight, no deliveries.
💲And no supply of goods, means skyrocketing prices on every product at the check-out.

Yes Pat our business is in the same boat. We pay 30-40cents extra for delivered bulk fuel
Nationals are best to join one nation, you can help one nation take power away from labor, so this fuel crisis never happens again
👏👏 they are hopeless and never prioritise the needs of regional Australia
Thank you Pat for calling out Labor, they would have no idea how the regions are suffering.
Good on you Pat
Fuel distribution businesses have been gouging everyone for years so don’t just hop on your high horse now and do a heap of pissing and moaning. Lazy cheap political theatrics! Wake up and dump the 2 major parties people
⛽️TAX CUT RELIEF – BUT MORE MUST BE DONE🚙
Great to see Labor listen to calls from the Coalition and halve the petrol excise for every Australian motorist currently suffering at the bowser.
BUT there is a lot more to be done in order to ensure that the 26c isn’t just added to the petrol company revenue tally and not passed on in full.
AND we know there is more to be done when it comes to appropriate distribution to regional areas, freight companies and farmers.
I discussed this yesterday with Moffee on Triple M Cof#taxcutbut #fairerfuel #moretobedonem#acccfailne Triple M Coffs Coast Coffs Coast
Monday 30 March - 95 octane $2.70 and a half at Mobil near Ken Little's. Interested to see it come down to $2.44 and a half with the 26c/l reduction. More examples from the public would be a gauge.
While waiting yesterday to fill up the price for diesel raised by 10 cents a litre
Our diesel price is currently $3.20 per litre. The excise should reduce it to $2.94 but that is still almost 80% higher than the start of the month. And what happens to our FTCs for Heavy Vehicles? When the liberals cut excise during Covid, the FTCs were wiped effectively just redirecting $ from the bowser to the ATO via the quarterly BAS as no FTC to offset GST. Will we gain 26c at the pump only to lose 20c in FTC?
Treasurer says the flow-through will take up to two weeks ! from 1 April.
Won't hold my breath waiting for the prices to drop.
AN IMPORTANT SYMBOL TO TAKE HOME TO COWPER
Great to catch up with Speaker of the House of Representatives, The Hon. Milton Dick MP today.
As a long-standing member of parliament and Speaker since 2022, Milton shares my passion for inspiring the next generation of leaders to put up their hands and represent their communities here at Parliament House.
And inspiration starts with education! And thanks to Milton, I am now the proud owner of a replica Mace to take with me to local school visits to talk about the day-to-day realities of Parliament house, including its traditions and ceremonies.
Looking forward to bringing a ceremonial piece of Parliament House back to Cowper for my upcoming school visits.
Thanks, Milton Dick MP

Maybe keep it in Canberra and beat some sense into a few on the opposite side of the house.
Pat Conoghan, off topic but pls ask govt what are they doing to help the rural people, With regard to helping, With travel if metro gets say half price travel maybe.
That can knock on a few doors ....
Well done Patrick!
Awesome! Thank you Mr Speaker. 😁
Heard you on Paul Murray Live last night and your community involvement and how you spoke about CBD residents and rural with the fuel issue was refreshing. Well done Pat, keep representing Cowper with passion mate 🇦🇺
So good Pat
Pat it is terrific you çan inspire through tradition and history. Education and explanation are important for all our citizens
Love Milton - what a great gift 👍
Great news Pat. Anything interesting from the seat of power.
Great idea to promote pride in our country
Looks like a great tool there just wonder down the hall and wack some people that need some waking up o the head.
Well done mate. Wish you could bash Albo on the head with it.
Dick protects Labor from answering questions during QT.
Real leaders LEAD BY EXAMPLE , they don't do stooopid things like this while PRODUCTIVE people are getting crushed by incompetence and corruption !!! 🤨🤨🤨
WTAF? Didn’t you just recently get ejected from parliament for unruly behaviour???
🌟RECORD RAISING STARS OF COFFS COAST 💃🕺
🙏A huge 'thank you' and 'well done' to the organisers and every contestant in this year's Stars of Coffs Coast, raising funds for Cancer Council NSW.
💸Raising a record $194,000 is no small feat!
I am extremely grateful to have been given the opportunity to be a contestant this year, alongside my beautiful wife Ilona. And to walk away with the Judges Choice Award on the night was just the cherry on top of a great experience in aid of a great cause.
A special thank you to Ilona for her saint like patience in teaching me our routine over facetime and the brief moments between parliamentary sitting weeks and electoral travel. You've always been my star, and now we have a shiny disco trophy to commemorate it! 🏆

Amazing as always- congratulations Pat and Ilona
Congratulations Pat and Ilona for taking out the Judges Choice Award and being part of raising money for the Cancer Council all whilst providing great entertainment. 👏👏👏
So good 😊
well done Pat can we see the full footage? pretty keen
Great to chat to Paul Murray tonight for his Our Town special in Port Macquarie.
A chance to talk up our beautiful region, but also draw attention to our needs!
#paulmurraylive #portmacquarie
Pat is a good person for the Nationals, I'll still vote for him 1. Nats, 2. One Nation
Was a great night! Good crowd and our Mayor’s BBQ was smoking. 👌🏼 Well done Pat!
Well done.
Thank you Paul Murray. Just love these ‘Our Town’ shows. I remember stopping overnight at Port Macquarie in 1973, coming back from Lismore and it was essentially a retirement village, with a strong fishing industry. Now it’s a regional city in its own right, like many other places along the east coast.
I hope Pat's wife can convince him to join One NATION, %#/>> GET ON BOARD THE BATTLESHIP, PAT ☆☆☆☆☆
It was a great show & your interview was fantastic Pat.
